My Winter Vacation

 I will let you know the main, fun days of my winter break. They happen to be the first few days on break.


My winter break started out with seeing all my family in Temecula and celebrating Christmas a day early, on Christmas Eve.  Christmas Eve night my mom picked me up to take me back to San Diego, but before she did I was opening presents with my dad and the rest of his family. I got tons of stuff including a new pair of shoes, $100,speakers and much more!
     The day of Christmas I woke my mom up at 7 to open presents (she wasn't very happy about it). Opening presents was very fun and I received a new sweater, three more shirts, headphones, a TV and even more stuff! after opening presents we followed along with our plan which was driving up to San Fransico to see all of my mom's side family. It was a long 7 1/2 hour drive but I managed to get through it with my presents, music and a little sleep. We stayed at my great grandmas house that was huge, my dog, Ruca, that we brought loved her house and being able to run around and play with my grandmas little Chihuahua in the backyard.  
      That night,Christmas Night we went out to dinner at the Spaghetti Factory in Walnut Creek I ordered chicken alfredo with a sprite. After a lot of catching up and eating we finally left the restaurant. My stomach was so full I felt like I was going to throw up! I wasn't feeling good that night because I ate so much so I fell asleep early.
     The next morning Me, my mom and my grandma woke up early so we could get an early start on going to the city! My mom drove us to the BART  (Bay Area Rapid Transit) station and we took the trolley-type car to the city. From the city we walked to Fisherman's Wharf and looked around and shopped. Since it wasn't my first time there I knew where everything I wanted was. After a long time of shopping and taking pictures of the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz we decided we were going to go to Chinatown and eat Lunch at a place called "The Empress Of China", the restaurant was inside a nine story building on the sixth floor.
   Once again after stuffing my stomach to the max capacity that is possible we walked back to the BART station. My long day finally was done after the 30 minute ride back to our car and our station. I didn't mind the short ride while listening to music because I was just happy that there wasn't going to be anymore walking. Once we got back to my great granma's house I opened even more presents and got things that I liked. That is basically my favorite part of winter break and i hope I can it again next year but even better!
