Special Moment 2010

There are a lot of special moments in 2010, but my favorite was surely when my family went to Florida. On the night before my family went to Florida, we drove to Chicago. We spent the night at my uncle's house. The next morning my uncle drove us to the airport. When we boarded the plane I was excited, but kind of scared. The pilot said the plane ride was going to be about two hours and forty-five minutes, but when we landed I was like " that only felt like an hour!" Then I got it! It was only one hour and forty five minutes because of the time difference. My aunt picked us up at the airport, and she was so excited!!!! She took us to her new house, and it was really nice! The next day we went to the beach. My cousin and my dad went Pairsailing. Me and my cousin saw a stingray in the water. After that there were tiny fish popping out of the water everywhere! Then the next day we went trick-or-treating in a neighborhood full of mansions! We got tons of candy! The next day was kind of depressing, because it was time to leave awesome Florida, and go back to f-f-f-freezing Wisconsin! But it was still an awesome trip!
