Never once did I expect to meet all the obstacles that came along with this trip: flight cancellations, long layovers, and a late arrival. However, good or bad, nothing was going to ruin this vacation for me and I was going to make this trip, one for the books. It was 3 a. m on a Saturday morning. My mother came in to wake us up. It was finally the day I had been waiting for. I had never been so excited to wake up at 3 o’clock in the morning in my life. We had finally arrived at the airport and boarded our first flight to Mexico City.
When we had arrived in Mexico we were exhausted from the flight and realized we still had one more three hour flight, then paradise. We went to wait in line to start checking in our bags for our flight. As we were waiting, an hour went by; then, two hours passed, finally, we heard an announcement. We all paused and listened. “Flight 36 to Cancun is cancelled until tomorrow afternoon. ” We were all devastated and worried, what do we do? Where would we stay? My mother thankfully had a backup plan. “We will stay with my cousins they don’t live too far from here”.
I had no clue who or what she was talking about, but none the less we caught a taxi and made our way to her cousin’s house. When we pulled up to this little home, we were greeted outside with big hugs and kisses. I had never met these people, but they had acted as they knew me for all my life, I had never felt more welcomed. As we walked inside, I noticed the table full of food; they had prepared nice hot home cooked meals for us. As we ate they told us funny stories of my mother’s childhood and what she was like as a child.

I learned so much that night about my mother and where she came from. I felt so blessed and grateful for the life she had been able to provide for my sisters and me. The very next morning by the time we had finished eating breakfast, our taxi was outside waiting. We said our goodbyes and got in the taxi and as I looked outside my window at my mother’s family standing there, a feeling of sadness came over me. We had such a good time with them, and even though I had only got to meet them for such a short time, they had impacted my life greatly and I was glad to have met them.
We were at the airport yet again, but thankfully it was for the very last time. We had finally boarded our plane and three hours later we were in Cancun. We took another taxi cab and as we pulled up to our resort and I looked outside my window, I had never seen anything so jaw dropping beautiful. It looked just like a picture on a postcard, just as I had imagined it would be and more. The fun started almost immediately. First on the list of things to do was zip lining. It was amazing, zipping right through the trees and seeing all the monkeys and critters down below.
Just when I thought it couldn’t get any better after the very last zip line we took a little hike and got to go snorkeling in a underground cave or “cenote” as they call them. There were hundreds of fish everywhere and huge sea turtles that we could see so vividly in the crystal clear water. I had never seen anything so beautiful in my life, it was breath taking. On the very last day of the trip, we ate dinner in a cabana right next to the beach. As I sat there and watched the sun go down, its rays glistening off the water, I realized how lucky and fortunate I was to be able to experience this.
This trip may not have gone exactly the way other people would have planned their family vacations, but I wouldn’t have had it any other way. The problems that we encountered only made this trip even more special. I got to meet some incredible people and I also got to experience things people couldn’t imagine in their wildest dreams. Not many people can say they have experienced the things I got to do, and for this I am very grateful. Since this, I have taken many other vacations, but Cancun still remains one of the best and most memorable trips I have ever been on.
The Essay on First Time People House Life
The first time event that I remember best is my first time in Blue Water. It was a life altering event for me, and I am thankful for it.
