Arizona


Another vacation spot I love was my home for a short eleven months when I was in 4th grade. Arizona has beautiful weather all year round and has amazing deserts that are rich in wild life. Even though I only lived there for a short time, I was able to experience a lot. During my time in Arizona I went to the Super Bowl,  the beautiful red mountain of Sedona,  Phoenix Suns games, and much more.

A big highlight of my entire time there was going to the Super Bowl. I have never had an interest in football but when the opportunity to go to the Super Bowl came up, I couldn’t say no. I had a fun time experiencing all of the crazy Giant’s and Patriot’s fans. I had a great seat and for the first time wasn’t bored watching football. There was so much going on other than just football at the stadium. I loved going to the Super Bowl and would go again if I get the chance.

Another highlight of my time was visiting Sedona. The beautiful red mountains of Sedona were breath taking and interesting to explore. While I was there I went on a pink jeep tour. The drivers drove very close to the edge of the cliffs. At times it felt like they were about to drive off the edge. It was a very fun tour despite the scariness. There was also a small town with many small shops and restaurants. One store that I liked was a candle store. At the store they made their own candles with cool designs on them. The candles weren’t meant for lighting but they were for show. We still have our candles and enjoy looking at them and remembering our time in Sedona.

We went to many Phoenix, Suns games. It was very fun to experience the game and stadium with friends and family. No matter where you sit, the basketball game is fun to watch.  In my opinion the real fun starts after the game. Once the players were gone you were allowed on the court to play basketball. It was cool to experience basketball like the pros.

Arizona will always have a special place in my heart. I hope to enjoy many fun vacations there with old friends.
