Write about a favortie memory describe it. why was it important to you? what was speacial about it?

My favorite memory would have to be the first time I went to New Jersey It was my mom, brother,my moms boyfriend at the time,Ken and his two kids and me. We went to the Via Docks, the Via docks is a 55 foot bridge we went twice, we went shopping and went to a fair that was in town about 20 minutes from our hotel. I was about 7 years old and I was so excited to go bridge jumping for the first time I couldn't sleep the night before. It was an hour drive away from us once we got there we parked in a random parking lot with nothing but woods around, I looked at my mom and start getting mad because it looked like we were in the middle of no where. You had to walk around 15 minutes in the woods to even hear the sound of water, I was getting so mad I didn't know I would have to walk to it i thought it would be right there but I was just so excited to get there I started to run. I finally see the bridge and I start getting scared, I didn't wanna jump off of it at all. it was way to high up.

My brother finally picked me up and dragged me up the hill after he went off about 3 times. I was just about to jump off the bridge when someone said "watch out, watch out, move out of the way, get off the bridge" everyone moves out of the way this kid comes racing done the hill on a bike and I was like what he is not gonna do this. but yes he went right off the bridge with the bike and right then and there I was like if he can go off the bridge on a bike I can jump off the bridge. at that moment I closed my eyes, and jumped. It felt like I was falling forever. I loved it, hitting the water hurt a little because it was so far up. But I would do it again in a heart beat, it was the highlight of the trip to New Jersey because i never even heard of something like this when I was in 5Th grade, no one my friends ever talked about it and to be the first time of doing something so heart racing was amazing and I was so glad I finally did it.
