During the summer between my first and second school year we drove the motor home across the country. We went everywhere: Las Vegas, Mt. Rushmore, New York City, Swimming in the Atlantic (we swam in a jelly fish school and came out covered in jelly fish stings, not our best idea ever, in that same camp ground we also went swimming in a Lake that later we learned had Alligators), ate lobsters till we were sick in Maine, Nauvoo, Busch Gardens theme parks, Amish Country, and many more places that I can't remember off the top of my head.
When we went to Busch Gardens we went for a couple of days and each or the big kids took turns being in charge of one of the little kids. Alice and I didn't like to be separated so who ever was paired with her usually got stuck with me too! When we were paired with Bruce he flirted with the girl in charge of the magic show so she had us sit in the seat where they always pick their volunteers from so Alice and I got to be in the magic show. We thought he was soooo cool! When it started to rain we thought it was awesome because everyone left the park and the lines were non existent so we went on ride after ride with no lines! It was awesome!
My favorite part of the vacation was when we stayed at a KOA campground for about two weeks while we waited for Dad to fly back from having to go home to work. The staff at the campground was so nice and the life gaurd gave me a huge bag of pound candy the day we left and I cried cause I liked her so much. We would go swimming and mini-golfing nearly everyday and I just loved spending time with my family. Especailly since they didn't have any other friends and I got to be thier tag-a-long and the actually wanted me too (at least thats the way I remember it!)
