The Flight, Chanie
The flight went very well, especially for those first timers like myself. The takeoff was kinda scary but only because I'd never been on a plane; but it was really smooth and the attendants were very nice. (: The food was grand and the turbulance wasn't that bad either. It was a little shaky but the pilot let us know it was coming. speaking of pilots, one of our fellow students got to talk to the pilot and even sit in his chair and pretend to operate the controls.(: It is shaping up to be an unforgetable experience that I am glad to have shared with my school.
Preparation. by Anna
Yesterday 35 Hardin students and 3 faculty sponsers got on a bus bound for Washington D.C. All were excited to see new things, to have fun and witness history. We left school early embarking on an hour long bus ride headed to a crowded airport. The service personell with Continental Airlines was very helpful allowing us to get checked in smoothly. As we were waiting for our plane we were all getting nervous and excited all in one... But as we got into the plane we knew that we were ready to go to WASHINGTON D.C. !!!!
