Family goes to New Jersey for the third time in six years

Sunday, September 4, 2011

On Friday night, the Wang family, consisting of Mom, Dad, and two sons, 14-year-old Raymond and 11-year-old Bryan, along with the brothers’ uncle, aunt, and cousin, 15-year-old Lingdi Kong, got in the car to go on a vacation. This family lives in Massachusetts, and they went to New Jersey to visit their friends. It took 4-5 hours to get to New Jersey. Dad drove roughly 280 miles from Massachusetts to New Jersey. As they were nearing their destination, Bryan realized that he had gone to New Jersey six years ago, in November 2005, when he was five. On Friday night, however, they rested at a local hotel. In the morning, they had breakfast at the hotel, before leaving the hotel to go to their friends’ house. This was the home of Alex and Justin, and Ray and Bryan had first met those boys back in November 2005 when Ray was 8 and Bryan was 5. This was their third visit to this home; they also came here in April 2009 during a multi-day, multi-state vacation; between 4/19/2009 and 4/25/2009, they visited New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania over a span of six days, and they saw lots of great places, such as the Statue of Liberty in New York and Hershey’s Chocolate World in Pennsylvania.

Yesterday, Ray, Bryan, Alex, and Justin went to a nearby restaurant in New Jersey for lunch.
