True Expedition

The title says it all…

Many oh you have seen the grand canyons, haven´t you. If no there´s a picture right here :

Well… one summer i decided to go there with my family. It all started when i finished my 7-th grade. Yes, it was a moment worth dying for. My family was so pleased that after a long steady living there´s a vacation in-head of us.  Grand Canyon, what a perfect place to stay for the summer, at first i thought. Current weather in there was, well sunny and hot as hell. We took the plane, because we wouldn´t have survived the long ride by car.

What made it a fun trip, was the sightings, mountains, rocks, cliffs… actually everything that you could climb on. To a little kid like myself, climbing was the only fun thing. I didn´t have much friends, but i made some up, so i wont get bored, when my parents weren´t home. They were at work, alot. Sometimes even too long. Because of it, my father bought me a laptop. A silver-colored laptop. It was cheap, but i knew that my parents don´t have much to spend.

Anyway, about the trip. Like i already told you, it was hot as hell in there. Rocks and sand were the only companions i had, because my parents were too busy, finding the hotel. So i went exploring. I found one snake skin and frightened an old lady with it. It was funny, but i tried to stay quiet, because i didn´t want to get caught. That lady was really scared.

I wondered so far from my parents that  they seemed like little tots, in the land of cliffs. I found an old cottage or something. It seemed empty and quite damaged. I tried to open the door and it surprised me, because it was unlocked. ” Whoever lived here left in a hurry. ” – i told to myself. I found a comfortable bed and went to take a nap, regardless of what my mother said about sleeping in other persons bed. Why? Because i once fell asleep on my neighbours bed.

When i woke up it  was almost nightfall. I forgot that i have a mobile phone. I checked it and there were 36 unanswered calls, all from my mom. I took the courage and called to her. She was very happy to hear me talk. She wanted to know where i am. So i told her the story and about half an hour later my mom rushed in. It was very cold outside and my mom wrapped a blanket around me. I love her.
