The Hectic Adventure part 2

Finally I am going to tell you about the rest of the adventure in Florida. So lets see, where did I leave off....
Well, when we got to our campsite we swam in the pool and just relaxed the rest of the day. (It was a very hot day in the SUV so we needed the nice time to relax.) The next day we were going to go tour embry riddle in the morning and walk around the campus.
This is a model of the Wright brother's plane.
The school was so big! They had tons of aeroplanes and some such things. My brother stayed with a student in the dorms that night to see what it was like, and he said that half the school were training to be pilots, an d half were training to be engineers. My brother is going to be an aerospace engineer, that's what he wants to major in. Then in the morning we met up with my brother and took a tour around. We saw flight simulators....
And planes...

And lots of rocket, computer, space related stuff that I didn't take pictures of. My brother got to ride with a student in one of these planes for free. I was so envious. We all loved the school but my brother ended up going to Iowa state. then the rest of the week we had free to explore, and have fun in Florida. We went to the beach one of the day, and I would say that was the highlight of the whole trip. I LOVE the ocean! I loved going out to where there are the huge waves that are taller than me and try to ride them, and be sped along by the force. The speed the waves sent me was incredibale! But if I was caught off guard the wave s sometimes sent me into a cartwheel, head over heels. That made me swallow water. Not a good thing to go through. My family and I went walking along the shore and got our feet covered in sand which was very fine sand. We all had the time of our lives.

And that is the end!!!!!!! Of the post. not the adventure! Look for part 3!
