My first time traveling by plane!

I will never forget that amazing and embarrassing experience. It was 22nd of august in 2010, but it was a cold and cloudy day. My parents and I were waiting at the Barcelona airport for my flight to Vienna. I had won that trip after some months working in a project about the environment, and then I was going to travel by plane for the first time with some friends. I was really nervous!



Once we had been inside the plane, we sat in our places and started to inspect the plane. There were a lot of interesting things that claimed my attention: some estrange buttons at the top, magazines and catalogs at the front of me subjected by a removable table and the emergency material at the bottom of our sits. At first I inspected the buttons and the emergency material while air hostesses were giving some instructions. Then, when they had finished I wanted to leaf through catalogs. First, I tried to open out the table but I couldn’t.  Later, I started to think about how could work the table’s mechanism and finally, fed-up of trying different ways to open out it, I shook the table strongly, moving the sit in front of me too.

At first I hadn’t realized that if it was a sit, maybe it was occupied by another traveler, but then I did it: I noticed that in that sit there was a young woman. I went bright red, it was so embarrassing! I had being annoying her all that time, poor girl!
