My best holidays

During the Easter holidays of 2015, my family decided to


spend our vacation for a few days in the sea of Manzanilla in
Colima. We stayed in a hotel called "Great Festival", it was
superb!, It was not like the common hotels where every family
stays in a small room with a few beds, a television and a
closet, but inside the hotel there were Many houses, all the
same and ordered by number and streets with names related
to the beach like siren # 54, shell # 39, octopus # 87 among
others. Each house had, instead of a key, a card to enter and
inside the house there were 3 bedrooms, a kitchen with its
dining room, a bathroom and a living room. Also in the hotel
there was a lot in which to distract like fields to play football,
basketball bowl, volleyball; and a great diversity of pools for
children with games, for young and adults with large slides
and some special pools for couples of lovers. In the whole
hotel there were a variety of restaurants of Chinese, Mexican,
American and Italian or some international food, they were
open all day, for breakfast, lunch and dinner, you could take
food and the amount you wanted and delight delicious
desserts. We woke up at 8 in the morning to go to the sea to
swim and play with the waves, until 11 we returned to have
breakfast. Most of the day we were inside the hotel swimming
in the pools, on the slides, playing basketball, baseball was
great fun and at night at 8 they had a great show like circus, in
which there were fun, dancing performances, Made
competitions, theater and ended at about 11. When I finished
watching the show, my cousins of my age and I were going for
an hour at the disco and when they were 12 we would go back
to our house. We were only 5 days in the hotel, the last day
we were sad because we wanted to stay a few more days, but
our parents had already decided, so we picked up our bags
and went back to our house. But the memory of this wonderful
journey remains.
A desperate day

In September 2011 at the age of 8, I attended the third grade


of elementary school and joined the group of girls and boys
who were part of the school war band, as I was excited to hear
the music of the drums And trumpets in honoring the flag. We
stayed 1 extra hour after the check-out time to rehearse the
notes of the different songs that we were going to play,
because the date of the September 16, the day of the parade
was already approaching and we were going to participate
ourselves too. The day arrived and my father took me down
the street where my classmates from my school were going to
gather to start the parade agreeing that at the end of the
parade they were going to pick me up at a certain place. At the
end of the parade I went to the place where my parents were
to pick me up, they spent 30 minutes and they did not arrive, I
despaired and I chose to come to my house.
My parents went to the place where I waited for them and
since I was no longer distressed, asking my colleagues and
elderly people who knew me if they had seen me and nobody
knew about me, they asked the municipal police for help and
they announced to see if That way I was faster, but nobody
knew about me. The place was cleared with 2 or 3 people and
they did not know anything about me until my parents decided
to go home doubting that I came alone because of the age I
had and because they had never let me walk alone, taking the
surprise that I was in house.
A boat ride

During the long vacations of July and August of 2011, I was 5


years old and my family organized a trip to Michoacn. We left
in my father's car and left at 6 in the morning, spent 3 hours on
the way and arrived at a place to have breakfast, then
continued on the road 4 hours to reach Michoacan at 1 pm
and stayed in a hotel. First we went to give thanks to God for
having arrived well to the temple of San Juan Nuevo, in all the
people that were going to visit the temple, they had the habit
of entering dancing. Soon we went to the center to buy
handicrafts from which they are made. At night we visited
Paracho a town of Michoacn and we bought musical
instruments like (guitars, flutes, maracas) and we returned to
the hotel to sleep. The next day in the morning we went to
breakfast the traditional ash tamales (corunga). In the
afternoon we went to the island of Janitzio and we pace
amosen in a boat enjoying the route giving him to eat fish to
the gulls. We climb many steps of the island until arriving at
the highest part where there is a monument dedicated to Jos
Maria Morelos. It was a trip in which I enjoyed a lot since I
knew its traditions, customs, and way of dressing, handicrafts
and tourist places.
A shameful party

In April 2010, I was 7 years old and celebrated the sixth


birthday of my sister; I was very excited because the parties
have a lot of fun. We used to choose a favorite character
especially to dress him and that the cake, piatas, bowls and
ornaments were the same. My sister decided to dress
Tinkerbell and me a clown. The day came and my mother
combed me 2 pigtails and I put on the costume of clown, but
when we had gone to rent the costume I did not want to
measure it because I thought that I would fit and it was not
because I was very tight and I could hardly walk, it was very
uncomfortable, however I did not want to take it off because I
wanted to wear the costume at the party. The guests arrived
and we started to play to the traes, I was running very fast as
I could, the moment I entered my house I tripped with the edge
that was on the floor of the door and I broke the suit by the
part of the seated, I spent a very uncomfortable and
embarrassing moment because my cousins and uncles
laughed without stopping.
My party with rain

In October 2012, I was going to turn 10 and was very excited


because what I liked most about the holidays was playing in
the pool and my parents had rented a very large one. The day
arrived and in the morning it seemed like it was going to be a
sunny day, but at dusk the sky began to cloud and then it
started to rain, I was very sad because the guests did not
arrive and because we were not going to enjoy the joker, 1
hour later the guests came and my friends did not see the rain
as an obstacle to enjoy and have fun in the jumping, on the
contrary they seized the rain o slip through the jump, to see
their joy I convinced myself to go and enjoy in the Jumping
with the rain, after a while the rain ended and a beautiful
rainbow came out, then we broke the piatas, we organized
games and contests, we distributed the cake and we had
dinner, after everything that happened we enjoyed much of the
party.
