One of the funniest/interesting family vacations I've ever had was when we went to Texas to meet/see some family on my dads side and "tour" where he grew up. This was about 3 years ago all of my immediate family went except for one sister who was in Africa. On the way we had a blast, except it took FOREVER to get there!

When we got there the first thing we did was go to my great grandma's house and some of my 2nd cousins and great aunt/uncles were there. When we met our 2nd cousins we thought they were okay but they ended up kinda on the weird side... After chatting for a while we had dinner and my great grandma was so entertaining because she had a 10 min memory and she kept cracking jokes.

After spending a day with them we went to go see my mom's brother Steve and his wife and 2 kids and they took us to cici's pizza. The next day we went to six flags with everyone and it was lots of fun! Also a couple days later we went to my dad's old house where he grew up and we explored this forest type place and it was really pretty.
