Not an Alliteration

This New Year, I had an opportunity to go to Florida with a friend and her family. I have always wanted to go to Florida and I’ve been hinting at my parents to take our next vacation there. Because they are more "cold weather people" we always go to Colorado. As you can imagine, me being "warm weather person", I’ve always wanted to go to Florida! I finally got to go over this Christmas break! We left at 3:00 am to drive to Kansas City airport....not really my time of day. We had a layover in Nashville, and then were on our way to Orlando. We went to Daytona and stayed at a resort right on the beach. That was probably my favorite part of the trip-being able to walk out the building right on to the sand and out to the ocean. The first day we were there, we went sailing. The first hour was a blast. It was beautiful weather, there were waves, and it was fun to be out in the water. The second hour, however, was not so much fun. My friend's mom and I both started getting seasick. It got worse the longer we were out. That was my least favorite part of the trip!

We did so much while we were there. We went to Disney, shopped, toured old lighthouses, and shopped some more. We even cheered on K-state in the Fiesta Bowl from Florida! On New Years Eve night we swam in the Atlantic Ocean at midnight, and that is something I will probably never do again. It was a little cold. J So many memories were made on this trip and I loved every bit of it (except getting seasick). Next time my family goes on a vacation, I am definitely going push for a Florida trip. It is a trip to remember!
