Hi, I’m Duetches and I attend Mr. Meyer’s Class. My teacher does March Madness and my college is Stanford. Why would I go on a fake trip when spring break is here? So I asked my parents to go and they said “why not?” We planned three places. We would go to each place along the way. We would go to Chicago, Salt Lake City, and Reno, NV.

So we packed up the car and we were off. One slight problem, we had to take a detour. My Dad new of a back route that took us the same way. We went past the border and only one more hour to get to Chicago. We came to a rest stop and found that we had a flat tire, so the hour turned into three hours. The previous night I had stayed up to late anyway, so I decided to sleep.

“We’re there, and the buildings are huge!” I decided I wanted to go the aquarium and eat at a fancy restaurant. After dinner we left and were on the road again. So I kicked back and read a book and we were off to another place, Salt Lake City.

We finally made it to Salt Lake City. We went from state to state and finally made it! It was phenomenal and beautiful! I saw the lake and valleys. It was very pretty but I felt bad because the lake was loosing water. We stayed in a hotel and swam until we got water logged and left.

We are on the road again and we are almost there, “only one more stop, Reno!” We finally got there and I saw an arch that said the second largest city in Nevada. We eat at a famous Mexican restaurant. I was bored so we hit the road and were on the road to the college.

I fell asleep but I woke up to a big red statue, it was Stanford. We are finally there!! We walked around campus and went to a gift shop and the last thing of all we hit the road again and that is when my Mom yelled, “We’re there!” BORING OLD HOME!!
