A Family Vacation to Canada :: Summer Vacation Essays

This is the actual story of a trip I took with Smith Family into Canada. The total head numeration was 19, including myself. The trip took 8 days to complete. We left on Saturday, June 24 at 1200am and got linchpin on Sunday July 1, around 300pm. The great Canadian adventure started at 12 noon on Saturday to pack the bus and truck. The bus is an old school bus with a big rack on top to hold canoes, and screens over all the windows. Inside there are 8 bunks in the back for sleeping. The middle is where the food is kept. The front has two tables on each side for playing cards. As soon as I got there I started meeting people. I had only met Craig, Renee, and Amber before at Cameron Smiths graduation party. There were 3 well fed dogs running around. The first person Tyler pointed out was Harry, his grandpa. He was give riseting the gas unneurotic for the boats and there were about 5 others standing around him. One was Troy and the other was Larry. It was easy to see that Craig and Troy were brothers, they were rigging the bus to carry 5 canoes. Others were busy helping to get ready. I helped put the motor rack in Tylers truck. After the bus and truck had all of the canoes on, Jeff, Tyler, and I went back to Tylers house to take showers and eat. The plan was to meet Craig at Cash Wise at 830 to buy the food. Craigs Eagle got a flat tire on the way to Willmar. Tyler, Jeff, and I got there at 930 but the shopping was already done. As we were leaving Willmar, on our way back to Harrys, we were able to see fireworks from the Works over Water display on Foot Lake. When we got to Harrys, there were several cars in the yard. Tyler and I went to the house were I met Erin and Allison for the first time. Erin was eating a pizza and at first glance I thought she was Emily Smith. I could not get over how much Erin, Allison and Amber looked like Emily. Little kids were running everywhere. In the living room, were about 25 people I had never met or seen before, who seem ed to be having a good time together.
