I have a rather large family. Not only is my family large but, so is the space between them. My mothers half lives on the East coast, from Florida all the way up to New Jersey. My fathers side is on the West Coast, from Washington to California. My parent use to take me and my sister from one coast to the other for holidays or for visits and we even took a lot of family vacations all around the U.S.
My grandparents lived in Tampa Bay, Florida and we use to spend a lot of time visiting them there. I remember it was one of the funniest place as a kid. I loved how lizards are everywhere over there and I would spend hours catching them, the communtiy pools in Tampa Bay were huge and it was by far my favorite thing to do while we were in Florida.
We would travel from Florida to New Jersey were my mothers mom is and me and my sister would get to visit our cousins and have huge BBQ's. We got to go to New York and I got to see the twin towers. When we returned on our way back home we often took little road trips to the others states on our way home. I remember stopping and going to museums and going to Las Vegas.
On the West coasts we would visit my fathers side of the family specially during holidays like Thanksgiving and Christmas. We stayed in my Uncles huge mansion of a house and were allowed to be crazy wild kids.
My mom and dad liked to take road trips a lot growing up and I have gotten to see a lot, more then some people my age. And I think its because of the amazing places I have been that I have such a love for travel. I hope to see the remaining 23 states(mostly the Northern states) and travel all over the globe.
