A Taste of Sky Adventure

As a young boy, I travelled a lot, especially by airplanes. Out of all the possible ways to travel, nothing excited me more than the plane itself. My first experience with the airplane was when I was 11 years old to the Unites States. I couldn't have been more nervous and excited at the same time. I can still remember the mysterious but familiar smell of the airplane. When I sat on my aisle seat placed fairly towards the end of the plane, I could see everything inside it. Two big wide-inch screens, blue seats with trays, green carpet which was worn out, and half-piped ceiling. There were people of all races too. I had never seen so many foreigners in one confined space before. After beautiful stewardess' kind demonstration, just incase our lives are put to risk, the moment that I've been waiting for came. The take off. The plane moved slowly but with overwhelming force towards the long runway. Then the plane started to shake nervously. Before I had time to know what was going on, the plane roared forward as my head tilted back without my will. When I finally could open my eyes, I was well up in the air. All the fast cars on the roads looked as tiny and slow as ants. After a short while, I could see the white clouds, clear blue sky and the brightest sun in my life. I felt like I could forget everything back on the earth and just fly away. I could never and will never forget the sensation of being up in the air. It will stay with the rest of my memories of adventure forever.
