was there over my summer vacation vs was there for my summer vacation

Both phrases are correct, but they are used in different contexts. 'Was there over my summer vacation' implies that the speaker was present during the entire duration of the vacation. On the other hand, 'was there for my summer vacation' suggests that the speaker was present at some point during the vacation. The choice between the two depends on whether the speaker wants to emphasize the duration of their presence or just the fact that they were there at some point.
