I talked with a junior at our school named Aubrey Smith. She went to Phoenix Arizona over spring break. When I asked her what she did over break, she responded with ” I went hiking, shopping, and swimming” I then asked her what her favorite part was and she told me it was nice warm weather when she was outside there. Aubrey told me that she would go again if she had the chance.
