Jason could feel butterflies in his stomach as he entered the bustling
airport. This place is a zoo!" his mother exclaimed as she got in line at the
ticket counter behind about a million other travelers. Like an obedient
puppy, Jason followed. After waiting forever to check their luggage, Jason's
family had a quick breakfast at the Dunkin Donuts counter before heading
off to airport security. "Great," whined Jason, "another line." As he glanced
ahead, Jason noticed that the main security guard looked more intimidating
than Mr. T. Finally, Jason placed his shoes, belt, and change onto the tired
conveyor belt and walked through the metal detector, relieved when he
didn't hear a beep. He collected his items and finally reached the gate.
Waiting in line to board the plane, an older lady asked Jason how he liked
flying. He was close enough now to hear the engines roar as they came to
life. “This is my first time," he replied.
