​First Time Flying!

I was very excited to board the plane today. I’ve never flown before, so I was a little nervous. Going through security was the worst part; I was worried that if answer a question wrong or that they’d take one of my items for whatever reason. It went well though, aside from me thinking I had lost my phone. Fortunately it was just my bag, which was a relief.

At the gate, I had a few minutes to relax before boarding the plane. We went over safety information and the likes, and then we were finally ready to board. Unfortunately, I couldn’t bring my carry on luggage, but I had my personal bag with me.

The first few minutes on the plane were a little stressful, mostly because I had to crouch down to walk down the aisle. I started to record the liftoff, but it would be another 20 minutes before we actually flew. I did get some good pictures, though, despite the weather being very cloudy. I’ve never truly gotten the scale of how big a cloud is until now.

 The ride was far more relaxing than I had expected. I was able to sleep for about half an hour or so of the hour long flight. When we landed in New York, I was a little disappointed, because I couldn’t actually see any of the city itself.

Getting off the flight was much easier, as we didn’t have to go through security or get our checked bags. I grabbed something to eat, and hopefully I can take a quick nap before our 7 hour flight.
