Dear diary, Yesterday was a great moment in my life. You know why? I was flying! Thanks to my uncle who is a pilot instructor. I confidently said yes when he invite me to fly with him. Well, i was sitting in a plane as small as a car while my uncle was flying the plane. Then, he started the engine and slowly but surely, we were speeding along the runway at such a high speed. I bet a cheetah could not run as fast as us! We were running along the grey, thin strip of concrete. In my ears i was wearing a pair of black, shiny earphone which allowed me to listen and talk to the pilot. I looked out of the window and watched the ground go whizzing by. It was so cool! The plane was screaming as it ran along the track-suddenly we were airborne and the ground was getting smaller and smaller. Whoosh, i felt like a bird flying high skywards; my feathers were soaring and the wind was rushing through my hair. The window as small as the door of a bird cage suddenly opened and i could feel the cool, cold air blowing all over me. I was freezing. I yelled for help. My uncle turned around and smiled. He calmly shut the window and we continued on our trip. In the blink of an eye we were getting close to the airport. My uncle asked me to look out of the window. I leant over and there were two dolphins swimming in the beautiful, calm sea. They looked so tiny. Their tails were crashing and bashing the water and making the ocean foam like a bubble bath. It was fantastic. Then, i saw airport. The control tower was standing tall like a giant and the runway was getting closer and closer. My ears popped and i could see the grass rushing up to meet us. Next as gently as a feather floating on a summer breeze, we landed, safe and sound. What a great experience! I hope i can fly my own plane, one day.
