I go to Myrtle Beach every year and i’ve had some good and bad experiences from these trips. First off, every year we would drive to Myrtle Beach. That’s sixteen whole hours of sitting in the middle seat since I am the youngest of my two sisters. For the whole drive I had to sit staring straight ahead, and you know what that means, I basically went sixteen hours without sleep. How fun. After what felt like a million years of complaining about being in the middle, I finally got to switch into my cousin’s car once we made a stop to get food. I honestly think I slept the rest of the way there and I swear that was the best sleep I have ever had. I tried my best not to complain about being in the middle but I despise long car rides, I do not like them at all, they’re boring, long, tiring, and uncomfortable. I know I was a pain in the butt to my family and I’m surprised they were able to put up with me that long. The next year we decided to take a plane and this may have been partially my fault but I didn’t care because this was going to be my first plane ride ever and I was so excited!! We waited in the airport for our flight and I couldn’t help but buy the overpriced airport snacks while waiting for our departure. The fly there was great, I was comfortable, the view was great, and I was able to get a decent sleep, all until a little kid decided to switch seats and sit behind me. This kid would not stop kicking my seat, honestly how cliche is that, a kid was literally kicking my seat. It didn’t bother me that much until he decided to reach through the crack and grab my arm which nearly gave me a heart attack. You think this would have bothered me even more but I didn’t really mind since it was only a two hour flight and it was only a kid right? So from these experiences I come to dislike long car rides and flights. But it is all worth it when we arrive in South Carolina. As soon as your plane lands and you walk out of the airport you are hit with a warm breeze and the sight of palm trees and you instantly forget all about your travels. I realize after how grateful I am and decide I would take sitting in the middle of the car for sixteen straight hours any day to be on vacation with my family.
After we book into our condo were pretty hungry, my family and friends all walk to River City Cafe which is hands down makes the best burgers i’ve ever had. I love going there to eat with my family because it’s sort of a tradition to go and eat there when we got to Myrtle Beach which makes it even better. We go to many different restaurants when were on vacation but I think I’m the happiest when we all just order pizza and hang out at the condo.
I’m a beach person, that’s just who I am, I love the beach it’s my favourite place to be and I spend majority of my vacation there. My family trusts me and my cousin Rachael to go do want we want as long as it’s not far and we tell them where we’re going. I enjoy the freedom that my parents give me it’s a lot more relaxing and I find I don’t have to bug them as much which I do a lot. The condo we stay in was probably one of my favourite places and I would have been .happy if we just stayed there the entire vacation. There was thirty floors, water slides, two lazy rivers, one indoor pool, two outdoor pools, four jacuzzi hot tubs, convenience store, pool bar, and was right on the beach. It honestly had everything we needed and I never got bored. We always go across the street and buy body boards and go swimming in the ocean but we sometimes would get called out of the water by the lifeguard because he thought we were struggling, apparently us Canadians aren’t the best swimmers.
One of the best parts of vacation is sleeping in and not having to worry about it, but I loved waking up at six in the morning some days and watching the dolphins swim in the ocean, going for morning walks on the beach, or just enjoying coffee on the balcony while taking in the breathtaking sun rise over the ocean. Since my family loves dolphins so much we decided to go on a dolphin tour on a boat ride throughout the ocean. We got to see wild dolphins up close in the ocean and it was a very cool thing to experience. Another thing we did revolving around animals was visit the Ripley’s Aquarium and after working up some nerve I pet stingrays and held horse shoe crabs and got to see many different animals including sharks, seahorse, many fish, and my favourite animal sea turtles. Another favourite part of the trip was shopping which I really have an addiction to. My family and I went shopping at many places but my favourite place would have to be the boardwalk. It was a huge outdoor mall and there were many different things to do there like ziplining and various other activities. Overall I really enjoy coming to Myrtle Beach because I get to spend tons of time with my family all together and get to relax and have fun.
