We left for the airport around 3:45 and got there at 4:00. After going through security, we found our gate and sat down. Krista went and picked up 5 sodas and some candy bars and chips for the plane trip.
We were so excited to get to Fiji!!
When we finally sat down on the plane, Ashlyn was already hungry. She ate her chips and then went to sleep. Meghan and Krista were sitting across the isle from Megan, Ashlyn and I.
The plane took off and it started to get late. Everyone fell asleep except for Megan. She was watching a movie on her Ipad.
Finally, we arrived in LAX. Our Flight was about five and a half hours with a three hour time change, so we got there around 8:00pm. Everyone was so tired, since it really felt like 11:00pm. Since we had such a long layover time we decided to sit down and eat at a nice restaurant.
Once we were all full we walked around the airport looking at different shops and stores. We decided to go sit down at our gate just to make sure the gate had not changed and that everything was running smoothly.
We boarded our next flight and it was almost midnight in West coast time.
Once again, we all went to sleep and it was a pretty smooth flight.
We also experienced what felt like another day and which ended up being another day, but its only because we crossed the international date line while taking our last flight to Fiji.
Well, we are all awake now due to the fact we all are experiencing jet lag. We all decided to challenge each other in drawing contests and we got the flight attendants to judge! It was the most fun I've ever had on a plane. Of course every time the flight attendants judged, they could not even tell what Ashlyn, Meghan and Krista drew. On the other hand, Megan and I were always trying to beat each other.
I am so excited, we are almost there! I can almost see the clear waters from the window! I can barely stay in my seat.
