                    I looked out at the road. I was getting tired of driving. I had been driving all day. It was a long drive from North Carolina. I lived in North Carolina and worked as a barista at a large chain coffee shop. I've been really busy and in desperate need of a vacation. That's why I was on my way to Florida.  Finally I turn onto a smaller road decorated with lights. I looked out at all of the lit up houses and even the palm trees. I looked for the house number of my air BnB. 3749 Charleston rd.

                  Eventally, I spot the right house and turned into the driveway. It was a pretty blue color with a tiled roof. There was a palm tree in the front lawn and a pathway leading up to the front door. I shut off my car and pulled out the key.

The front door was unlocked and I let myself into the house. I felt the wall and sure enough the light switch was right next to the door. I flicked on the lights and looked around. The house was clean and smelled like cleaning products with a hint of lemon. The temperature in the house was warm and made the whole house have a cozy and inviting feeling to it.

I walked into in the kitchen and opened the fridge it was stocked with food. There was a nice stove and oven in the corner.
The cabinets had plenty of dishes for my stay. Off to one side was a round table and four chairs. The table had a colorful tablecloth. There was a flower display in the middle of the table. The next room over was a living room. There an was old but beautiful couch. I sat domw.and sank into the soft pillowy cushions. There was also a tv and a laminated paper saying what channels were available
I wandered into the master bedroom. Inside was a king size bed with a home made quilt that covered the whole thing. Next to the bed was a simple night stand. On the night stand was a lamp.and a few books. They had set out books of different genres and interests which was a nice touch to the house. There was also the information book about the house and the place you are visiting. On the opposite wall was a beautiful dresser with lot of drawers to put stuff in and a big mirror.
The bathroom was attached and easly accessible from the bedroom. It had a teal and blue accent color. Also in the bathroom were travel sized toiletries, shampoo, conditioner and body wash incase you forgot.
Finally I decided to go get my stuff and get ready for bed. I carried in all my stuff. I got into my pajamas. I layed on the bed it wad soft and warm. I was exhausted from driving and was grateful for the rest. It wasn't long before I drifted off to sleep.
