I really hate flying. Once something happened to me. When I was on board, the plane started taking off. It seemed that everything was all right. But suddenly I saw smoke coming from the engine of the plane. The engine was on fire and the plane started to rattle. Suddenly the captain said to us in a very calm voice. “Ladies and gentlemen, we are having a little problem with one of the engines. There is no need to Panic. Keep your seat belts fastened. We are going to return to the airport.”
You can imagine how frightened I was, but the crew was fantastic. The flight attendants were really calm and told us not to worry. One of them told me to relax and said that everything would be fine.

Dear diary,
Last Sunday morning, Aunt Emily made an announcement. She told us that she was going to take us on a cruise! I was very surprised, knowing how expensive a holiday like that could be. However, we agreed. We aren’t a wealthy family, but we do have a little money put aside, over the years, which we usually use part of, for vacations.
When the day of departure finally arrived, we were thrilled to see how huge and luxurious the ship was. Our cruise liner sailed distinguishably out to sea, as our holiday began.
What a disappointment! There was so little to do on board. The boredom almost drove us mad. We visited several ports, but we didn’t have the freedom to do what we wanted to.
Furthermore, we had to follow a very tight schedule of guided tours and visits to museums. It was an uninteresting experience!
