in approximately 20 hours i shall be boarding the plane, the pane that will fly me to Hamilton Island! im so excited!
ive done the packing! i hope i dont buy much, coz my suitcase is pretty full. Well if i do, i can steal room in Brooke's suitcase..lol. haha..well that is if she hasnt used the space already.
but seriously, im so excited! it is rather scary. it will be the furthest ive been away from home without any family around me. i went to melbourne last year, but i was accompanied by mum, my younger sister and family friends. mind you, back in 1997, i did fly to port macquarie with only my cousin who was only a couple of months older then me. but when we were to reach our destination we had family awaiting us. when we arrive at hamilton, there will be no family. that is the scary part! but my excitement overrides the fear - no complaints there.
but what i dont like most about going are the plane flights, but only when disturbing thoughts creep into my head, thoughts about how at any second something can go wrong and before we know it we could be plummeting towards the ocean! the turbulence makes it a whole lot worse, especially in a smaller plane; the domestic planes. you wouldnt be able to feel it as much if you were in a jumbo.
but overall, i like the plane flights. lol.
