Have you ever been out of your home state before? Maybe even outside of the country you live in? Do your family or friends take road trips every year to new places? My family usually takes incredible vacations every summer. Today I will be telling you about my favorite places I have been to on family vacations. Those places include Disneyland, Yellowstone National Park, and Punta Cana.
The first place that I loved visiting was Disneyland. I loved going on all the crazy rides. Some of my favorite rides include Splash Mountain, Space Mountain, Soarin, and many more exciting rides. Next, I enjoyed seeing all the Disney characters and getting them to autograph my notebook. My favorite Disney character to meet was Minnie Mouse. The other Disney princesses were also awesome to meet like Elsa, Anna, and Aurora. Lastly, I loved trying all the Disney-themed foods and drinks. My family got a couple of foods to try there, some of which consisted of a soft and creamy pineapple gelato from an Aladdin-themed shop and a chocolate Mickey Mouse ice cream popsicle.
Next, I had so much fun going to Yellowstone National Park. My family and I went on many different hikes, and those were some of my favorite things that we did there. I especially liked it when the hike ended at a body of water like a rushing waterfall or calm lake. While we were there, we saw so many fascinating animals. Grizzly bears, black bears, bison, and mountain goats were my favorites, and I loved watching them interact with their natural habitat. Finally, I enjoyed viewing all of the stunning natural features. We saw breathtaking geysers, bubbling mud pots, cascading waterfalls, and steaming hot springs.
Last but not least, one of my favorite vacation destinations was Punta Cana. One reason I loved visiting Punta Cana was because it was my first time traveling outside of my home country. It was amazing to see how that country was different from my own. Next, I loved going to the picturesque beaches. If you walked as far down the beach as you could, you could enjoy the crystal-clear waters all by yourself and run on the sparkling warm sand. Finally, my family and I went on some once-in-a-lifetime excursions. We went zip-lining through the tropical vegetation of a vast jungle. Then, we fed fresh fruits and vegetables to wild monkeys while they climbed on our heads and shoulders. Finally, we cruised through dirt and mud in exhilarating dune buggies.
I love to go on vacations. They give you a break while you also get to explore the adventures of the world around you. It is even more enjoyable to go on trips with your family. My family and I have gone on many vacations, but I have three that stand out the most to me. Disneyland, Yellowstone National Park, and Punta Cana are my three favorite family vacations we went on.
