The adventure has officially begun! On Sunday October 31st I left my home at 5:00pm to caught my flight at 7:30pm. Both of my parents drove me to JFK airport. When arrived at JFK my mom went in with me and helped me get my boarding passes. Then my dad joined us and we went to security and that is where we had to say our good byes. This part was very emotional. I cried all the way through the security line. I was so nervous to go on the airplane by myself. When I board the plane at JFK an unexpected thing happened. I was taken aside and informed that I was unable to take the little red rolling suitcase as a carry on. I was unable to take it because there is not enough room in the overhead compartments. So, I had to check in the bag. This took a while because I think that they forgot that I need to do it. This conflict made me nervous and up set. No one seemed to care. Well, this conflict was resolved by having the bag just be put on a flight to Tanzania. There was nothing to be worried about.
When I arrived in Amsterdam I was really disbobulated. I had not idea what to do for the two hours I had till my next flight. At this point all I wanted to do was get in touch with one of my parents. But that was not posable because I had NO service on my phone. I was a mess at this airport. I had a whole bunch of emotions flowing though me.
On November 2nd I finally arrived at the Rift Children's Village in Tanzania. I absolutely love it.
