Vacation
Just got back from a family vacation with, well, my family. It was me and Andrew and then my mom, my four sisters, and my grandparents. It was fun. We went to Gulf Shores. I almost drowned in the ocean, literally. But it's all good now. Andrew and I went to the National Naval Aviation Museum with our friends Cheryl who lives very close to Gulf Shores. Learned a lot of interesting things about planes. Kinda make me want to fly, but I'm a nervous wreck driving. I can't imagine what I'd be like flying. Though there are far less planes to crash into in the sky than there are cars to crash into on land. We also went to Fort Morgan. It was pretty there. Bright green grass surround ruins. But it got hot fast.
The beach was really nice. I was ten the last time I went to a beach and back then my mom wouldn't let me go into the ocean much further than the edge. So getting pummeled by the waves was an experience. I loved how when the water would start receding back into the ocean all of the sand beneath our feet would flow with it. So I'd end up stand ankle deep in a hole. At the edge of the water, tiny mussels would wash up on to the sand then flop over and burrow back into the ground. We also, went to Biloxi, my first gambling experience. I didn't do so well but Andrew won back everything he lost and some of what I lost. lol It was pretty exhilarating to spin and win. But they gave you tickets instead of getting coins so I think that took a little fun out of it.
Although the vacation was fun, I find my family very infuriating. Sadly the person toward which they have been disrespectful will not allow me to discuss with anyone the problem but I wish I could talk to someone. It involves me in a very personal matter, as well... :(
