Once, when I was about 10-11 years old, I travelled to Pennsylvania. Me and my family decided to go to the Niagra falls. It was my mom forever lasting dream that she just really wanted to come true.
We went together as a family. Me, my dad, my mom and my brother. When we got there, we realized how crowded it was. Everyone was everywhere. But that didnt stop us to continue going to see the falls.
When we finally got a glimpse of the falls, we were all so mesmerized. It was so beautiful. We had a tour guide as well who was telling us the history of the waterfalls. He told us how a man once well down the falls and survived the fall. But the way he died in the near future, was by stepping on a banana peel and falling.
Finally, once we were done sighting the falls, we went to our rented car. And started driving to New York city where we reserved a hotel. But halfway on the way back, my brother realized he forgot his favorite toy kitty somewhere. We were already 2 hours away from the Niagra falls and there was no way we could go back just for a toy. But luckily when we got back to our hotel, my dad asked a security guard through a phone call, to look if he found it. And guess what! He did! The joy all of us felt was so great! we have found my brother favorite toy!
