It Was 12 : A Hour Flight

This story happened about 6 years ago. We were taking a family trip to florida. It was me, my brother, my mom, and my dad. The day before we left we where in the house getting our stuff ready for the long drive. Once that night came its was about 5:00 when we left the house super early. We left our house and had a 16 hour drive ahead of us.

I had never been on an airplane. My stomach felt like I had just eaten rotten fish and I was about to throw up. I was so excited to go, but at the same time I was scared because I had never been on a plane. We waited in the airport for at least an hour. Finally our flight was called, as I walked on the plane my heart was about to jump out of my skin. After the flight attendant had went through all the rules and we put our seat belts on the plane was going to take off. I thought the worst thing about the flight was taking off and landing. I didn?t like taking off and landing because my ears popped. Other than the fact that my ears popped taking off and landing the flight went smooth, we didn?t crash. When the plane landed, I couldn?t wait to stand on solid ground again.

When I was 3 years old, just 19 months after my sister was born, we went on a trip to Florida. We had to wake up at about 3:00 a.m. ,because it takes us an hour to get are luggage in the truck and to get everyone up and dressed. Our truck was a black Suburban. It took an hour and a half to get the airport, an hour or two to get our 3 bags of luggage on the plane,to get breakfast,to get coffee for my Mom, Dad, Nana Pat, and, Papa Daryl. Finally, we got a security check for all of us.

About an hour later all of our stuff was packed and ready to go. Me and my son were nervous, neither of us had ever been in a helicopter before and didn’t want to find out would happen if we crashed. The pilot went over instructions on how to safely be in a helicopter. I listened very carefully but couldn’t hear much over the helicopter’s roaring blades. I ended up falling asleep over the Atlantic Ocean.The next thing I knew was when the pilot yelled “Brace yourselves!”.

My mind went blank. I forgot all the things I learned in the plane safety book mom gave me. All the flights attendants were trying to keep everyone calm. They were putting a mask on that everything was fine, but my eyes looked through it and saw them crying on the inside. The oxygen masks came flying down but I didn't notice. I was staring at all the people crying. Then the flight attendant came and put my mask on for

It was an early morning in antioch california where I was vast asleep at my grandma’s house. Until my father suddenly woke me up and said “we have to go” and that's how it all started. So I got up and got dressed, ate little bit of cereal and hopped outside with my bags. “Oh my god” I said as loud as I could without waking anyone up around us. There it was A LIMO FOR ME I almost fainted until grandma said “this is just the beginning. We got in the limo and started our adventure. About a 2 hour nap later we arrived at the SFO airport around 8am. I got my bags and said goodbye to our amazing driver, then walked right through those electric airport doors with the biggest smile ever.

So finally we reach my grandma’s house after a nine hour car ride with two slobbery dogs, two grouchy teens, and one fed up aunt. When we got out of the car there were millions of endless hugs and kisses, and you can’t forget about the “How are you? I missed you so much”es. But I’ve been sweating like a pig for way too any hours and all I could think about was how cold that pool would be when I plop into it. After cooling down we had family time and managed to stay up till the crack of dawn late instead of taking our behinds to bed. The next day my New York family flew down, but they were way too tired to take on the adventures the next day would bring us.

I had to get up so I got up, and dragging myself to the plane, I gave the lady my ticket and she allowed me to go on the plane, I got on and slept. When I was on the plane I woke up as we started to land. My ear felt like bleeding and it didn't stop, it irritated me for 10 minutes.I got off the plane with a headache, stomachache, and ears that were turned on mute. I got to my grandmother's house in DR then slept and woke up feeling amazing like I just won the lottery. After all this trouble I was still happy to be

I was in Gillette, Wyoming visiting my 3rd cousin Austin Bowman that I haven’t seen in a very long time, considering we both live in 2 separate states. Even though we are cousins, I had only met him one other time, and that was about a year before when we saw each other at our aunt Joan's funeral. I was feeling good and happy knowing that I got to see him again and was able to hang out with him for a couple of days before I my trip out there to see him ended.

First, we checked out my Uncle’s new house. It was a big, white house with a big backyard. They had a very cute dog who loved me! I made a new friend that day. Then, we all went to my Aunt’s house with my grandparents, cousins, aunts, uncles, and some of my mom’s friends from high school and college. The second I walked into their backyard, the smell of hotdogs and sausage hit me like a bullet. Everyone greeted me with hugs and smiles. There was a pool and a cute little dog named Zeus who was sleeping on the deck and snoring. I swam for a little and then I talked to all of my relatives that were there. The food was absolutely amazing! I had a bunch of hot dogs and sausages with salad and pasta salad. For dessert there was yummy chocolate cheesecake with strawberries that my aunt made, which was even more delicious than the main

I got down and prayed that I was not going to die. When I could feel the wind rush thru the floor. After 20 minutes from the plane crash.

Before I knew it, I was on the plane to Belize. The first couple of days were absolutely amazing. After what seemed like only a blink of an eye, it was already the third day, which was sure to be the busiest. We were going to take a jungle hike and learn how survive in the rainforest, go ziplining, and go cave tubing. It also happened to be the first day of the rainy season, and it was pouring rain all day. Despite the rain, we went on with the day.

When I woke up from that horrible scare when people told me too look outside. I never did look outside and everything was normal to me, but everybody was very afraid of something. Though I never looked outside my thoughts told me I should of. After I work my butt off, my paycheck was suppose to come the next day. I went to sleep then I woke up and it was still bright outside. When I fully got up I asked people did I sleep to long and people said that I slept for only three hours. After this I went back home and turned on the news and I was blown away from what I saw.

The first time I flew was to the United States. I was 18 years old and had no expectation. While we flew for almost 22 hours there was turbulence. it was a horrifying flight and especially scary. i travelled with a girl that I met at the airport that was going to the same house and job with me. We were from completely different backgrounds and didn’t talk for the 28 hours in total traveling time.

The light to put our seatbelts on glowed as the captain spoke to us and flight attendants acted out safety instructions. At take-off my stomach was filled with butterflies, but I wasn't scared. My body was pushed into the seat but I pretended I was the captain of a fighter jet. When we were stable I discovered that flying wasn't that bad. And the ocean looked beautiful out the windows! I put on my CD player until the played the in-flight movie, Planet of the Apes. I didn't like it so I kept listening to my CD player all the way through dinner. I fell asleep but the sound of the captains voice woke me. He was telling us there was an hour left of the flight. Flight attendants asked us to stow away our bags and prepare for landing. Butterflies were fluttering in my stomach again as I anticipated the landing. I felt the plane lose
