A Fun Trip to New York

A Fun Trip to New York

By: Frank Orellana

The next day we went to a skating rink in the Rockefellercenter

I visited New York with my family. This trip was very good because we had a lot of fun with the family and we also visited many places, had many adventures with my cousins, parents and uncles. My uncles are living in New York and we did this trip in December last year. Our trip was a month where we had the opportunity to have enough time to get to know many places and to have fun.

The first days we visited several museums, many restaurants and in the following days we visited where the Twin Towers were before the terrorist attacks, and there was only one large empty piece of land with nothing built. That day was one of the coldest; it was 10 degrees below zero. The next day we went to a skating rink inthe Rockefellercenter. We met different places in the following days, we went to Manhattan, walked and learned a little. After that we had a trip which lasted an hour to go to New Jersey; we ate in a typical food and then returned to the house.We were also impressed by the Empire State building but we had to make a big line to get to the roof. We also went to a place that was about four hours from New York to go skiing; then we went to a mall to buy clothes and some gifts for the family that was here in Guatemala. The last place we visited was the Statue of Liberty a very nice and big place where you can see all New Town York.

To complete the trip we packed our things and then went to the airport, but had to wait about four hours to climb and take off the plane because it could not take off due to bad weather; it was snowing, so we had to wait to come back here to Guatemala which we did on fourth of January. What I learned from this trip was very interesting because I went to meet other people, the kind of life that occurs in New York that is a night lifestyle. It is also a very quiet town without many risks of assaults or something similar. I also learned a little to develop my patience because we had to wait quite a lot at the airport that the plane took off. I loved to live with my family and have lots of fun and have a great time.

In conclusion, the trip was very good, I met places and had many great memories of the pranks we did with my cousins.
