The idea of the United States having Puritan origins is still alive today. In Sarah Vowell’s, The Wordy Shipmates, the topic of how a nation affiliates itself with Puritan perspectives is introduced. She encourages one to look beyond the surface information of the first English settlers’ motives in the 1600s, and to investigate what Puritan views truly are. She mentions the Governor of Massachusetts Bay Colony, John Winthrop, expressing his freedom to enforce his religious views on to a whole colony of people. The superiors of this religious group decided in the colonies what was appropriate for the society they are creating.
The stuffy, gentle salty breeze chills me as the night goes on and goosebumps cover my arms as wind flows through my sundress. Upon entering the pier, I view the vast ocean, the rippling water swishes onto the docks creating a beat like drums. Along with that I can hear the crowd cheering and giggling like hyenas. I see vendors selling fresh coconut milk out of brown hairy coconuts. I also see lots of creamy, melted ice cream,
As a was running down the hallway I heard footsteps and I turn into a classroom that was big as two rooms put together. The room was not filled with joy it was a whole nightmare, all you could see was a light switch that was glowing at the top of of the stair case, so I went up there to turn it on and I saw peple without mask they where screming my name and i knew that was my friends they where going into a trap and it was a net at the end of the hallway. I ran after them “waspppppp” the sound of the net scared me and my friends where smart enought no to go in there and something set it off I do know what did nut i was out so i whould not get
My Dearest Parents, When you last heard from me, it was about two months when I first boarded the ship. The voyage was normal at first, the only discomfort being the number of passengers traveling with me. The reason for the overcrowding was due to the passengers hoping they can experience a new life for not only themselves, but also their family and friends. This was my intention too. After a couple of weeks at sea, there was a massive storm that threw the ship off course.
The car drives slowly forward and the pulls to a stop at a curb. We arrive at the Jockey Club. The hotel is small and isolated on the outside, but our room is huge and the roof top pool is huge and there is a kitchen there too. Yet we have nothing to do. We have already been to Las Vegas.
When i went up the stairs EVERY single stair had a hole in them, when I got upstairs a HUGE piece of sharp wood fell from the ceiling and I ran! I went in the basement and then I heard nothing and then all the sudden somebody or something was coming down the stairs! I broke the window with a axe and I cut my leg open when I crawled out the wind and when I got out I ran four there and a half miles without stopping. I ditched Barry and john, because I was TERRIFIED!
All is quiet in the beautiful ocean then you hear a scream then you look out into the ocean and the only thing you could see was a shark tail. Older Than Dinosaurs? Sharks have lived on the earth longer than you think for example, over three hundred years ago sharks roamed in waters, that is one hundred million years before dinosaurs roamed the earth!
I woke up in a dark room with a massive headache that beat like a drum. I slowly got up and tried to remember what happened. I remember a huge storm that ravaged the west coast, then a space-ship came down and started to abduct people. “Oh no, I have been abducted!” I screamed to myself.
Being prone to motion sickness, but also loving cruises, does not always mix very well. Immediately after waking up on saturday morning I began to feel the effects of the, unnoticeable to most people, rocking motion of the ship. The headaches were the first sign to show, followed by the nauseousness, however the Cruise Line has a simple fix for this issue, Dramamine, given out for free at the concierge desk. Simply take one pill with food and water in the morning and another one before bed, along with staying in the middle of the ship and
The rooms were nice. They looked like they just got cleaned. There was one bathroom, one shower, one sink, and a couple of beds in our room. As we started to walk around on the boat we seen this big gigantic statue. Everybody in my family asked what is that statue?
“Gentlemen, please take your seats,” said the flight attendant sarcastically. We all bursted out laughing and didn 't stop till our sore stomachs caused us to. We arrived at the airport and were instantly wowed by the gorgeous views and amazing scenery! There were tall palm trees and once we stepped off the plane, we instantly felt the ocean breeze.
If you decide to take a cruise, it will be just like you are at home, only not as loud and aggravating. The cruise ships have rooms that look like your entire house they are so big. This will make you feel just like you are at home. Cruise ships also have pools, lounges, tennis courts, bowling alleys; they basically have anything that you could image doing. Once you get to your destination you will be able to see unbelievable places, places that you thought you would never see in your lifetime.
With everyone now aboard the cruise ship, I can’t even hear myself think! The sound of adults and children overwhelmed with excitement and bursting with laughter fills the sea air. “We’ll be departing for the Caribbean islands shortly,” exclaims Captain George Johnson. This is my cue to start making way to my compact yet cozy room to unpack my belongings for my ten day trip.
The ocean… The sound of the waves applauding and hugging the shore. The internal sounds of the body out in the world’s biggest swimming pool. The echo of my sister’s laughter. The salty smell so strong that one can taste it dancing on ones taste buds.
