The summer between 8th grade and high school, was the summer I went to Florida. I wasn't sure it would actually happen. Truthfully, living in Nebraska, where the oceans were multiple days drive away? We didn't travel that far, and I had never seen an ocean before. Florida and California both seemed like exotic locations.
But I had an aunt & uncle living there. They had a 3-year-old, and another on the way. I could buy a round-trip ticket, and be their au pair for the summer. Eight weeks, and I only got yelled at once. (I don't count my cousin, she was only three.) It seemed like heaven.
