Dream Trip 2008: August

Great Travel Moment

This is memorable for me because I had fallen asleep in the car while driving from New York to Pennsylvania, and when I woke up, we were in the middle of farm land, with corn fields 10 feet tall on either side. We kept driving along the road, and suddenly, a horse came into view in my window in the back seat. Riding next to us was an Amish family's horse and buggy. The man driving had a beard, suspenders, and a straw hat and I was admiring how different his life must be from my own. When ever I go into Manhattan, there are many representations of different cultures, but nothing so visible as a different way of life. This photo represents my appreciation of diversity and shows how I hope to travel across the world to experience more things such as that.
