Plane

shining through a thin layer of grey clouds, like a stained glass window. As Colin packs his last bag, his thoughts are lost in Naya, but soon he will be on the plane and home by the evening. The stormy weather has cancelled his previous flight, but today it’s finally clear. He rested as he sat next to the window. As soon as the plane takes off it startles him and he wakes up asking, “Have we landed?” The flight attendant laughs and says, “No, we are leaving now.” Naya ties her dark brown…

negative thoughts started to delete out of my head. So then the pilot got back on the speaker and told everyone that nobody was going to die and that he was going to have to land the plane in the water. And that’s exactly what he did and then they sent these little yellow boat looking things out to get people from out of the plane and I was one of the first people off and they took us back to the US Airline, so that mean I had to cancel my trip to California. I felt down the whole day and I was…

time I went was when I was about 11 years old. My parents gathered enough money to go back and visit my dad’s old town to visit my grandparents. I was super excited I packed clothing, Tamagotchis, training bras and my wild rhino sneakers. We took a plane at LA to Oaxaca, Mexico and it was going to be a 4 hour trip. Like I said I went to Mexico once but don’t remember anything so I started imagining what is was like. As we got there we got our stuff and waited for our ride. My dad told us that my…

walked away, I felt as helpless as I had ever felt in my entire life. God, just this once. Please. As I climbed into the back of our caged in truck I was unable to talk, unable to erase the child’s face from my mind. At the end of the week I boarded a plane. As the engine vibrated, and we were elevated into the sky God whispered to me, “You’re not finished here.” Every mile that passed, my heart ached. Every day that passed, I longed to be back to the country that stole a piece of my…

Brian now has to survive in the Canadian woods on an island all by himself with nothing but his…

The Time I Went to Punta Cana Imagine landing at an airport that is all outside and has no inclosed area. Imagine landing in an airport that is basically all Tiki huts, but really it is an airport. Imagine getting off of the plane by using the stairs that lead to outside air and Imagine walking into 100 degrees, beautiful weather. This place I landed in was called Punta Cana. When I was younger, I had always wanted to go to Punta Cana. Punta Cana was one of my dream places to visit and I…

be so I dressed accordingly to how I felt it would be in a place where it snows. I remember going to get my passport months prior and kind of not fully comprehending to thinking about how much things actually were going to change once I got on that plane. My first real awakening was in line for a routine security check when the man in front of me spoke on…

make messes and it doesn't matter if they are thousands of miles in the sky. You can use these wipes to clean up messes, wipe hands and even to clean down those tray tables. You might be surprised to know that it is actually the dirtiest spot on the plane. Yuck! Light Blanket: Unless you're flying first class, blankets aren't always available for your use. You may even have to pay for one if the flight becomes a little too cold even after turning off the air overhead. If your little one has a…

Clomp! Clomp! Clomp! Our boots pound the rocky Colorado trail in the middle of a cold, starry night above the massive tree line with a spectacular view of the lights of Leadville, as we hiked our first 14,000 foot mountain of the summer. Clomp! Clomp! Clomp! We have only just begun. Upward we trudge for several more hours. Following a long, boring drive with my parents, we were able to find Gold Hut East without any problem. I have to say when I got there it was really quiet,…
