The best part of my spring break was celebrating Easter with my family.  I didn't do much during the week because my parents had to work.  So when they came home for the weekend and I got to spend time with them it was great.  My mom cooked a Polish meal as she was born there.  I helped dye eggs  and make a salad.  During the meal we played our annual egg cracking game.  One person holds the egg they picked and the other try's to crack it with another egg.  It wasn't very fun because we only had three people but usually we would play with about 20 at my aunts house.  Overall Easter was a great family experience for me this year.

     My favorite part of my spring break was when I went to the Elite eight game in Philadelphia. After we had our Easter dinner with my family we went straight to the game. After we got there they had the Syracuse vs. Virginia game on the big screen so we got to see Virginia be upset. The game was very close in the first half but North Carolina pulled away in the second. That is definitely one Easter I will never forget.

Over spring break I got to go to Charleston, South Carolina. In Charleston I got to go indoor swimming and go in the indoor hot tub. I also got to go on a carriage ride. My family and I got to see lots of cool and interesting places on the carriage ride. For dinner we got to go on a rooftop restaurant, it was so beautiful looking over the railing at the view. When we got back to the hotel we ordered room service and got chocolate molten lave cakes.They were so delicious!When the room service lady came to pick up the food when we were done they gave us chocolate covered strawberries for free. The next day we went back to my grandma's house I was sad to leave, but I got to go see my cousins!

 People always ask, are you going anywhere for spring break? For the first time in a long time, the answer was, "No, I'm staying at home this year." I didn't think it would be that fun at first, but it was exciting to go to places that we don't really have to to go to during school. For example, we went to the mall (KOP) every few days and the movies to see the new Superman vs Batman movie. I also slept in everyday of the week. Watching lots of Youtube videos of different stars and Jimmy Fallon clips never get boring. I also listened to a lot of music on Spotify and watching old movies like Forrest Gump again was exciting in a slightly different way from when traveling was the norm for me during Spring Break. Even though I didn't travel far, I still had a lot of fun and relaxed, but that's all that really matters.

Over spring I went to Florida. We were originally were going to drive like the year before but my mom last minute decided to fly, so we took a plane. When we got there we collected are bags and went to the car garage to get are rental which was a orange convertible Mustang. We arrived at 2:00 and went straight to bed. Every day we went to the beach and pool and met a who we hung out with almost every day. We went in to town a few times to eat dinner and went to the farmers market there once. On the last day we went kayaking and the left around six for our flight. Our flight got delayed and we ended up getting home five o'clock Easter morning. But overall I had a great spring break.

Andy Marquet: Spring break

Over this spring break i started out by driving down to the Chesapeake Bay and staying at a resort. It was really fun, but the highlight of Spring Break was going to the Elite 8 basketball game (UNC vs Notre Dame). I am a big UNC fan so it was awesome seeing them play. They are the best team left in the tournament (opinion) and I really enjoyed seeing them in person for the first time. It was an awesome atmosphere. The stadium was sold out and was dominated by North Carolina fans. Overall i had a great spring break.

Pd. 3: Ava T. Spring Break

             Spring break was the highlight of my year. My family and I packed up our bags and flew out to Steamboat Springs, Colorado. Steamboat is a Western-cowboy themed town. We stayed in a condo, near the mountains, and took private skiing lessons. My sisters, Olivia and Isa, went to the lessons with me while my brother, Jake, went to ski school. Unfortunately, my brother had a tough time getting used to being away from my parents. While we were in Steamboat, we went to amazing restaurants. In one of the restaurants, we got to cook our own meat. In Steamboat, most of the shops are in town such as the candy store (we got a lot of candy) and the clothing shops (where I got a sweatshirt). When the fun ended, we all wished we could stay, but we knew that our time was up. We shipped out the skis back to Philadelphia, and flew back home. The experiences and memories I made at Steamboat will definitely last a life time.
