Destination Tokyo, Japan


      Destination Tokyo, Japan

 “Calling Gate A, destination Tokyo, Japan” Remarks a woman in the microphone. I am playing around with my aqua iPhone 4 when they called my gate letter.  I carry my luggage and rush to my gate. I am going to Tokyo, Japan, I mumble to myself. I am going to live in a hut along the river near a banana tree and a cherry blossom tree. I’m going to live with my goldfish, Phoenix, in a hut, near a river and two trees in Tokyo, Japan and speak Japanese to other people. I think to myself.
     I sit in my given seat wondering how Phoenix is feeling. Is she comfortable? Well at least I am. I am watching the little T.V they have. I couldn’t wait until they landed in Japan. I really wanted to play Angry Birds on my iPhone 4 but I can’t use my phone on the plane. I just sit down and relax on the airplane. “We are now taking flight” says the commander on the speaker. WHOOSH and it takes of. At night, I eat sushi (because it was Air Japan) and spicy noodles. Then I fall asleep. The next morning, I awake and we land on the smooth platform.

     I am in my hut brushing my teeth and I start watching Japanese shows in anime art. I was on this vacation for six months. I start exploring the market street and see many different sights. I then bump into a sailor and ask him directions to
Mahamuku Road
in
Japanese. He points to the left and then to the right. I run on the cobblestone pathway until I find an empty booth.
     I am going to draw people in anime and sell them to the person I draw. So far it is good until a samurai warrior comes and asks for my passport. Good thing I keep it in my pocket before I leave the hut. “Here you go” I say, of course, in Japanese. He accepts it. Okay, now back to my business, I think to myself.

     Six months have passed and I’m back in America. My trip was fun but now I’m back home and love it. HOME SWEET HOME!
