Here’s one journey I’ll never forget. It was about six years ago. I was going to Hong Kong, from London. The flight was early in the morning, so I stayed in a hotel near the airport the night before. I was in a holiday mood (心情) that night, so I went to the hotel bar and ordered a drink to celebrate. And I talked to some other people. We had a great time. When I left the bar, it was about three in the morning. The flight was at six o’clock, so it wasn’t really worth (值得) going to sleep. I watched TV for a bit but I fell asleep. When I woke up it was after five o’clock. So I panicked (惊慌失措), grabbed my bags and rushed outside, looking for a taxi. Of course — no taxis anywhere. Luckily, after a few minutes running up and down the street, an airport bus came along, so I got on that. When I got there it was nearly six, so I thought the gate must be closed. I’d missed my plane. Luckily, my flight was delayed (延误)! Yeah. I was really happy. But the delay went from one hour, to four hours to finally nine hours! Nine hours waiting in the airport. I slept on some chairs most of the time. Finally, at around three o’clock, the plane took off. But the worst part came! After a few hours there was a big storm and the plane started bouncing all over the place — I remember feeling it was like being in a washing machine. People were screaming; babies were crying and food was flying everywhere. I was really frightened. And then! The worst thing of all — the oxygen (氧气) masks dropped down. Suddenly we all were staring at these yellow oxygen masks and the feeling of fear — I just can’t describe it. I put my mask on and just sat there in terrible fear, with the plane bouncing all over the place and lightning outside the windows. Anyway, the plane didn’t crash, thank God, and we got to Hong Kong in the end, but what a journey! I’ll never forget it.
