Wind rushing through my hair, voices all around me, I'm finally here. All this time waiting, praying, and hoping for the best trip of my short 8th grade life. All the people I love are here... well not ALL of them but at least the ones I spend a 177 days with out of the year. This trip is a pivotal moment in my life. We experience things that are truly unforgettable such as seeing so many amazing monuments and memorials that tell so much about our own history.
Although this trip is supposed to be "educational", it is much more than that. You are away from family and the comforts of home for one week in an unfamiliar place. It is far from any summer camp that I have ever been to because this time you see historic sights and U.S. official buildings left and right. You spend time with friends from school much longer than seven hours a day and it's great!
Each day was a new adventure and I wouldn't have changed a thing. My memories are filled with laughter, smiles, and funny stuff!
Words sometimes don't always describe what I'm trying to say so I'll just show you:)
