6.What is your favorite vacation memory?
The most memorable memory I have in a vacation is when I went on many jet skiing and I went para sailing. I love being with my family because we bond and get closer I went on with my brother and they told us to be careful because the ocean was FULL of Jellyfish and they wanted us to put our feet in the water just for 5 seconds and there was a Jellyfish right next to my feet and my brother and i lifted our feet as high as we can to not get touched and we were screaming and we were laughing because we are just crazy like that! So when the man in the boat that was pulling us pulled us up and we were relieved ! When we were flying back to shore my brother started leaning to sides and pulling strings and we kept moving towards the water instead of to my parents and everyone was screaming "PULL THE RED STRING PULL!!!" and he did but we kept moving towards the water and i screamed! Then my brother PULLED the red string with a grunt and we went flying towards my parents and we were so happy we made it! The men that let us go on said "No one should be on the para sail right now just the jet ski and I am surprised you guys landed on the floor instead of the water!" My mom was just thinking about going before and after witnessing that she didn't want to go! My mom takes forever to get my mom on a water ride but after a hour of begging we got her on it!!!
