How we got to the Philippines

An ABC Taxi came to pick us up at 8:30 am. We loaded our suitcases into the taxi, got in and then zoomed off. It was a beautiful day. It was sunny and the sky was blue. When we got to the airport, we unloaded our luggage. My mom grabbed a cart, we put our bags onto it and walked through the revolving doors of the airport. There was a long queue leading to the check-in counter of Qantas. We had our luggages taken to be put on the plane, and then we had breakfast. I had a Hashbrown and a Bacon and Egg Roll. My mom had a chicken fillet Subway sandwich and a Diet Coke and my dad just had some coffee. Then I bought a book called Eragon and I also got a free book mark. Then we went to the had our passport imigration queue and had our passports inspected. We entered the security inspection room and put our stuff on the conveyor belt and walked through a metal detector. Then we collected or stuff and we bought a present for my Uncle. Then we went through a mini shopping mall and I went to the toilet. After that we went into a waiting room and waited there until our plane was ready for take-off. We waited in a long queue and our passoorts inspected again. After that, we walked down a long hallway. We walked through the buisness class and went to the normal class. We sat down and waited. We fastened our seat-belts, loosely. A powerful little cart pulled us onto the runway. Then it stopped towing us and zoomed away. Suddenly, the engines roared into life. It was just a low rumble at first, but it slowly became louder. We started moving down the runway fairly quickly, and then, without warning, the wheels retracted and we took off.
