I don't like going through the airport before our flight; the terminal is so crowded and the line
at the check-in counter can be so long. Then after we check our luggage we have to stand in line
again to go through security! I really don't like to empty my pockets, take off my shoes, and put
everything in a tray to be checked. However, after that things aren't so bad. We ride the escalator
to go to our gate, and sit in the departure lounge until our flight is ready for boarding. Usually my
mom will give my brother and I some money to buy ice cream at one of the terminal restaurants
while we are waiting. We never fight about who gets the window seat because my mom makes us
take turns; I get to sit there going to California, and my brother gets it when we go home.
My grandmother will come to the airport to meet us, and go with us to get our luggage from
the baggage claim. I'm glad we don't have to go through customs because I'm always happy to
leave the airport as soon as possible! We will spend the next two weeks playing at the beach,
shopping, and visiting attractions. I love our summer vacation!
