Hello, everyone!

Last week I travelled by plane for the first time in my life1. I travelled with my parents.

We went to the airport by taxi. When we arrived there, we put our suitcases on a car and went into the airport.

The airport was very busy. There were too many people. Some of them were at the check-in desk. Others were at the information desk. When we got on the plane, an air hostess said hello to us and pointed to our seats. There were lots of people on the plane, too.

It was fantastic when the plane started going up into the air.

I looked through the window. Everything below us was very small — the streets, the cars, the buildings and the people. And I felt very excited!
