I can’t believe it! Today, right now, we are in the car on our way to Melbourne airport to start our adventure in Agra, Asia. It’s going to be so cool! Ok, we are parking now; I am surprised we even found a spot to park because this place is so busy! It is going to take 8 hours to get from here to Delhi, India and then when we get there we are going to take the two and a half hour express train to Agra, and spend the night in a hotel there. Then the next day we will go to see the Taj Mahal!
Right now we are in the queue for passport control. Okay, it’s our turn. While Tianna’s parents are filling in forms and showing their passports to the officer, I am looking around, and all I can see are people. Wow! I have never seen so many people before! There are people queuing up, people going up and down escalators, people waiting in chairs, people collecting bags, people going in and out of the doors, and people greeting family and friends and having small family reunions.
We have finished passport control and customs, and are at gate 23, watching as they get the plane ready for take off. Hold on, I can see the air-hostess bringing the speaker thingy to her lips. “Gate 23, to Delhi, now boarding.”
We are picking up our bags, giving the lady our boarding passes and going through the docking arm and into our seats. We are buckling our seatbelts now.
“Ahhhh! What is that noise!” I shout, while tightly covering my ears. “We are taking off!” is what I think Tianna is saying, but I can’t hear her, partly because of that dreadful noise that this plane is making, and partly because I have my paws covering my ears.
Okay, now the noise is starting to get quieter. The sign at the front says we can take our seatbelts off. Ooh, and even better, there is a TV screen in the front playing a movie. Hmmm, it looks familiar…
It has now been about half an hour now, and I am feeling really, really tired. I think I will just close my eyes for a few minutes, just a few…
