The Jfk Airport Is The Best And Worst Experience Of My Life

Louis. The plan for the day was to drive to the St. Louis Airport and then fly to Salt Lake City, Utah. After that we would take a van and drive to the Teton Mountains and set up a base camp for 2 days than go on our hike. My parents said their goodbyes and give me my ticket I paid for by only picking up walnuts and I go into check in and I get my luggage weighed and my ticket scanned and I go on and wait for our flight at around 8 AM. I met up with my crew and when the time came we made our way into security, got checked, then we finally got onto the plane. I honestly didn’t know what to expect for my first flight. I couldn’t tell what was worse, sitting in a space with two other people or trying to fit myself into that Harry Potter closet they call a

We got on the plane knowing we would be there for a while. My sister and I were looking out the window in amazement. The sky was so blue it felt like i was looking at a painting. It was so beautiful we had never seen something like this. We stopped at many places. Italy was the highlight for us. Our first view of america was washington DC. I saw my mom's family for the first time in a long time. After a few hours We got back on the

When the plane finally landed in New York, I remember everyone cheering and clapping. We had made it to America. I looked through the window and saw a place completely different than what I had ever known. I immediately started to feel the chilly weather of New York. I had never experienced cold temperature, but I came prepared with a light jacket and sweater for my daughter and me.

Skipping the last week of school to fly in a plane for the first time across the ocean to another country was a thrill. Frankfurt, Germany was my first plane stop. From there I would board another plane that would take me to Budapest, Hungary, then finally to my last destination, Romania. This was the first time my siblings and I flew on an airplane and it was fascinating because every seat had a mini T.V. behind them and the food was delivered right to our seats. This was a different but exciting experience because we could watch movies whenever we wanted, we got to order whatever food we desired, we didn’t have to sit next to our parents, and sitting next to old people came with a major perk. My siblings and I always got seats next to

Ever since I was a little girl, New York City always seemed like a place that was magical. My family’s TV on Thanksgiving was always broadcasting the enormous balloons, extravagant floats, and millions of people lining the streets of the city for the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade. Freshman year, excited squeals and giggles erupted from my brother and I after our parents told us that we would be visiting New York City for the first time to witness the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. After several months of waiting and lots of turbulence, our plane hit the landing with a thunk at Laguardia airport and reality set in: we were in the city. Walking out of the airport was absolutely surreal. The sights, sounds, and smells surrounded my family and

I, for one, lived a wonderful life filled with many joys, adventures, and memories. I had the privilege to see all the sights from Rome to Paris, from Zermatt to Barcelona, and from Edinburgh to Amsterdam. These are gifts, and most would say that is the best thing they have experienced. I, however, am different. I did not care where I was, nor how famous the place was. The only thing I cared about was with whom I could share those precious moments and adventures.

Next we got to our hotel the sky was as blue as the water and the breezes felt so nice on my tired cramped up neck from being on the plane for 4 hours. I met people from japan, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico

When I was a child, I’d heard of New York City and it’s splendor, but I’d never seen a picture of the city itself, or heard anyone describe it in full detail. My nonchalant attitude took a complete one-eighty when the Christmas film Elf was released. In the film, the city is displayed from the sidewalk to the top of the Empire State in a short two minutes. Two minutes was all it took for six year old me to become completely enamored. I planned out my entire life living in a high rise apartment in Times Square, going out every day to explore the city until I knew every corner and building by name. At the time of the band trip, however, New York had become much

This is going to be about the first nerve racking time I rode a plane. It was 3:00 A.M. and I was getting up to go to the the airport. I wasn’t to thrilled that I was getting there that early but, it was worth it. We left for the airport and we first had to go to this parking lot where we left our car while we were on vacation. I was kind of nervous on leaving our car there but as a ride to the airport, we got a limo to the airport. I felt so cool riding to the airport in a limo.

Every time I hear this song it makes me long to leave all of my responsibilities and head off to the city of dreams. A trip to New York has been a dream of mine since I was a little girl. I have always wanted to visit the place of tall buildings, history, and where culture is intertwined with its people. I have wanted to live the fast pace life of a New Yorker, where I could stand outside and see, smell, and taste all of the experiences that this city has to offer. I have been building and building this ideal image in my mind for so long. If I ever get to New York, will I be disappointed by the city that never sleeps? The city that is a part of almost every movie I watch. Can New York live up to the expectations I have

New York City is the place that I want to visit, revisit, and visit again. Out there on the streets, I feel free. When coming from Atlanta to New York City thirty thousand feet in the air, which is grimy but comfortable, it is an experience unlike I have ever felt before. Crossing over the Hudson River and coming into the packed full station is reminiscent of having some kind of travel machine bringing you from earth to space in a flash. When I visited, I felt I could do anything and everything in the cities' grips. Living in America is a fantastic privilege; living in New York City is something even better. As you stagger up those stairs to the city streets and you capture that first breath of city air, you declare to yourself, this is Freedom!

My family and I were so excited that we didn't even sleep the night before. We spent our Thursday night watching movies and talking about what are plans were for the trip. Once the clock hit 4 o'clock in the morning , we left our house and were on our way to the airport. The airport was quiet and peaceful. I could smell the freshly brewed coffee once I set foot in the airport. We checked in, then waited patiently for our flight to board. Suddenly we heard on the overhead speaker, “Flight to New York, New York is now boarding, Flight to New York, New York now boarding.” Once we boarded the plane, we settled in and got comfy. The flight was fairly smooth with little turbulence and the sweet sound of babies crying filled my ears. Once we heard the pilot's voice telling the crew to prepare for landing, my excitement grew big.

Children around the United States wake up on Thanksgiving morning to watch the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade; I was always one of those kids. The parade and the city were always something that seemed magical to my tiny blue eyes. Fast forward to freshman year, my parents gave my brother and I the biggest surprise: we were going to the Big Apple to watch the parade live. My family would not be staring in awe at the television screen that year -- we would be living the experience. After months of waiting, days of packing, and an hour of turbulence, a jolt shook the airplane as it touched down at LaGuardia Airport. New York City called for us to explore. Sights, sounds, and smells surprised my senses within a second of stepping out of the airport.

While I was there I did a few things. First i went to my cousin's wedding. It was really beautiful. It was also really nice because I hadn't seen her in 5 years. We also visited time square and drove around New York. When we got hungry, we visited this little Mexican restaurant. They had really good tacos.

It was the weather you would want all the time… minus the sweatiness! It was so beautiful walking off the plane and seeing through the windows of the airport! While the beauty was overwhelming, it was scary for me to walk out of the airport! There were people trying to sell things, and there always was a chance of theft, so me being the second grader I was clung to my parents and didn’t dare let go of
