Over Spring Break I...

Well my spring break started early on friday.  I still had to get up and go to school at normal time but instead of going to first hour i reported to the PAC for my band trip check in.  We left around 8:30 to the airport, checked our suitcases and instuments, and boarded a plane to Newark air port in New York.  In totall there was 127 people going on this trip with the band so we had to split up into four separate flights.  I was on flight one the "senior flight".  We got to the gate and walked onto the plane as our seat numbers were called.  The plane was a "two one" meaning on one side there was two rows of seats and on the other there was just one.  The plane in totall had 51 seats for passengers, the EastView group took up 41 of those seats.  I feel bad for those ten suckers that got put with us.  As soon and we all got aboard we all traded seats so we could sit by all of our friends (much to the displeasure of the other passengers).  We finally got to newark airport and had a two-ish hour layover before our next flight.  Being responsible band students, the directors just let us run free in the airport for those two hours and expected us back in time for the flight to start boarding.  We all showed up on time, filling the air with excited chatter as we waited for boarding the start.  Then some bad new came over the intercom "The flight from Newark the Geniva has been delayed momentarily due to technical difficults with the plane".  It wasn't that much of a delay maybe 20 min. but it seemed like a decade for us highschoolers.  We finally got onto the plane and were pleasantly supprised to see every seat had a TV of its own and free movies and music for us to enjoy on the flight.  We all got into our seats and waited for the plane to take off, anticipation rising as fast as the plane.
