Personal Narrative My Cruise Of Mexico - 1422 Words

My Cruise to Mexico We had been waiting for this trip for years. Every 5 years we go on a trip to someplace fun. When five years passed after our trip to disneyland we were all waiting to go on some other adventure. I had done this twice, but 2 things about our trip this year were special. Kenishie I had always, always, always, always, wanted an little brother. If I could have one thing, anything, I would have wanted my mom to give me an little brother.

There was a lot of stuff that made me happy but i m gunna have to say that my favorite thing was the food. Mmmm. When I walked in every morning the smell of sausage, bacon and fried bread hit me like an hammer. But it was an good kind of hammer like a cloud hammer. I guess. Anyway, the chairs were gorgeous, and the tables were marble. The tables were set in rows. Each table on the outside of the row. Had an window, so you could look at the beautiful ocean, see all the shades of blues and deep purples. After breakfast, Z and I would walk the track that goes around the ship.
