My Roadtrip To The Rest Of My Life

There is no better way to start the summer before the rest of your life than with a RoadTrip.

Starting in Arizona, my charming family and I journey off to San Francisco to see me off to college. 700 miles later, we arrive and deduct that the best way to learn the city is to be a tourist in it first. We sought the guidance of the infamously cheesy Duck Tour.

We danced down the boardwalk in our amphibious duck-shaped vehicle as we sang “We Are Family” to the fellow tourists on the sidewalk. Inhibition griped us, as we thought “It’s ok to be crazy, chances are you never see these people again.”

The final stop is the hostel. Proudly and wistfully, my mother poses one last time before she sees lets go. My fellow travelers headed back to home, as I settled down into my new one.
