Thomas. Posted March 31, 2008 Author Share Posted March 31, 2008 It has indeed been good I have sunburn though I have photos I can't post them up though I have hand burn from the 3 out of 4, five page essays I have done I will type up essay two in the writers pad forum I thought I would post up that essay because it is a persuasive essay being that you try to persuade someone to go somewhere or to do something in the form of an essay, this type of essay can be used in brochures, leaflets and emails.

Thomas. Posted April 9, 2008 Author Share Posted April 9, 2008 Holiday over. So, I am back in the UK now. The Amsterdam flight was cancelled so we had to get a direct flight to Edinburgh Airport and we had to wait 6 1/2 hours at Newark Liberty International Airport. I actually was getting bored of the Florida holiday, people who live in cold climates such as the UK just can't get used to the heat in Florida and I wanted to go home. I flew over New York City on the way home and had quite a sight of Manhattan Island at night, The Empire State Building, Statue of Liberty, Midtown etc. I hate being in Scotland because I wished I had stayed in York when I was 4. Scotland is too cold. Sorry for the double post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azn Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 I hear you were on the same plane as TNF? Btw, do you have any pics of the famous landmarks? It's great to have you back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas. Posted April 9, 2008 Author Share Posted April 9, 2008 Thanks, Yes it's pure coincidental that we were on the same plane and we both happened to be in New York City at the same time. He was sitting 14 rows ahead of me and I only found out he was on the same plane as me. I have pictures but I'll post them up real soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas. when going off the plane, did you ever see some guy ahead in the line, wearing a blue shirt, Jeans, Trainers and a carrying a travel bag? If you did, then it was me you saw.

azn Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 It would be even more of a coincidence if you went to the same places in New York! I'm assuming you visited; -Times Square -Central Park -The Empire State Building -Chrysler building -World Trade Center? Lol I really want to go to those places, especially the WTC.

Thomas. Posted April 9, 2008 Author Share Posted April 9, 2008 Just curious because I was at the back of the plane and you were in the middle (So you say) what set of toilets did you go to because I may have seen you go past me numerous times if you went to the toilets at the back.

TNF Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 I went to the toilets at the back a few times, did you someone with a blue shirt, jeans and brown hair go past? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas. Posted April 9, 2008 Author Share Posted April 9, 2008 Might have done, I was asleep most of the flight though. If you saw me walking around I have Brown(ish) hair, I am Tall and not fat. What part of the Edinburgh Baggage claim were you in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNF Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 None, I left and travelled on my own, my parents had to go on a business trip to Fort lauderdale in Florida, so I left on my own, I had a bag with most of my stuff, (They kept the rest for later) and my Passport, So I did not have to claim any baggage. While you were at the baggage claim, did you see me ( 17 years old teenager) walking towards the exit while everyone else had to claim baggage?

Thomas. Posted April 9, 2008 Author Share Posted April 9, 2008 I don't think I did actually. I was with my Sister, my mother and my father so I was in a group of four. Do you think that the UK Passport heading sounds a little weird - "Passport to the United Kingdom of the British Isles and Northern Ireland" and below it says "European Union". Nice colour just a little bit too posh to be honest. When you were waiting for the plane did you see me with a cup of Mocha in my hand then with me running across after we had been to check something out at the Duty and Tax Free shop nearby the gate after an announcement was made saying "Continental Airlines flight C0036 to Edinburgh international Airport is now boarding at gate C73". That was funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas. Posted April 9, 2008 Author Share Posted April 9, 2008 I am curious but was your flight actually to Amsterdam, TNF? Mine was and it was cancelled so I had the next flight to Edinburgh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNF Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 (edited) Hey that reminds me, TNF did you visit the Statue of Liberty? yes, we got a ferry over to it, the trip was quick, and they had food on the boat which was good, I took some photos and went to the souvenir shop afterwards. I'l upload a picture later. Sorry to double post. No, my flight wasn't to Amsterdam, it was planned for Edinburgh the whole time. Here's a video I filmed with my camera in Times Square. http://s267.photobucket.com/albums/ii300/T...nt=SN851144.flv Edited April 9, 2008 by TNF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas. Posted April 9, 2008 Author Share Posted April 9, 2008 Yeah, did you have a window seat on the plane by any chance? If you did you may have seen the many lights in Queens, Brooklyn (Including the Brooklyn Bridge), The Bronx and obviously Manhattan. IT was a cool experience. That Black haired flight attendant was evil sort of. Yeah she was African-American but she would just grab the trays off of your tables. The brown haired one was nice (nice looking too!)

I agree with the comment on the brown haired Air Hostess, I had a crush on her, everytime she went past the seating area, I would turn around just to look at her.
