A Disney Dream

Catherine's Point of View(PoV)

Ooooooohhh, so excited! It seems so rare that I, the Catherine Doll can go to Disneyland. I mean, it'd be better if I could have friends come too, but still. It's just going to be a girls trip, so just me and my mum are going there. We'll probably hit a spa somewhere too.

But still, a week in Cali will be so great!

The plane was boarding in a half hour. It was some ungodly hour in the morning and I didn't want to be awake. But still, DISNEYLAND!!!

People were in crowds, everyone seemingly in a hurry to get from one place to another. But I guess you can say that is life, needing to go from one place to the next to move forward in life. Jobs, errands, chores, it kind of all blends together as those steps to becoming a happy person.

An announcement on the intercom takes me out if my thoughts.
"Flight to California boarding at gate 20"

Moving through the crowds we make our way to the gate, check our tickets and start boarding.

The plane was massive with several seats both filled with people and empty. My mother and I are sitting together but the third seat on the end, the aisle seat, was taken by another woman, whom I kinda guessed was the mother of the two children in the seats beside us, with the father sitting on the window set on the other end.

We squeezed through into our seats, I in the window seat and my mother in the middle. My mum seemed to have started a conversation with the woman beside her, talking about things such as how hard it is to raise a teenager and how boys can be so annoying sometimes ( I snickered at that one ), and other things that I didn't really pay attention to. The flight attendant started on the presentation on the exits, safety equipment and seat belts, and the plane started on its way to the runway, catching speed for the take off. The plane had just taken to the sky as I soon enough drifted off in my seat, my sleepiness taking over.

I woke up to my mother poking me about the free breakfast choices and what I wanted from the cart.

"Uhmmm...." I was trying to rub my tiredness out of my eyes," Just cereal I guess..." I yawned, stretching as much as I could in my small space.

Out of the corner of my eye I could see the one boy on the other side doing the same thing, and I started to look over towards him. He soon started to relax and put his tray table down. I looked away quickly before he could notice and I put my tray table down as well.
"Catherine, this is the Bradley family. They'll be our neighbours in the hotel. Isn't that great?!" She seemed quite happy, I'm not sure how, I don't think she did the same thing as I did; sleep. I shrugged it off and just replied with a "Yea, great.."

The boy was a hottie obviously, with my luck, and he was about the same height as I. Short. He seemed to have longish blondish hair and I really should stop looking.

I focused on my breakfast that was put in front of me, it had only been two hours, in which we had about an hour left on the plane. Oh and that ungodly hour I woke up at was 3 am so my mother and I could navigate Calgary to the airport. Our plane left at 5:45 am and we should be landing in Los Angeles. My mother said that we'd do a bit of shopping at the closer stores before taking the shuttle to the theme parks. It was only an hour behind from Saskatoon and Calgary. Our flight landed in an hour, so I decided to watch a movie.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The plane announced the welcome to Los Angeles and reported that it would be touching down soon, so I stored my tray table and turned off my phone.

As the plane was landing my mother invited Mrs. Bradley to come shopping with us, in which resulted in her agreeing and her daughter joining us. I learned the names of them, as the one that would be joining us is Georgia, who said she was a couple years older than me, while the boy, his name is Adam and is just a year older.
