During my holiday my father and I drove down to Wellington to catch our aeroplane to Brisbane. While we were waiting for our plane, the wait got even longer than four whole boring hours. The reason is the plane was flying in temperatures below 50-. Then there was a rain storm which had sleet in it as well.
(Sleet is a mixture of rain and snow)
Then with the wings being cold ice formed on the wings.
Then the crew Ground Crew had to come and deice our plane using special
Chemicals. The captain told everyone that it was nothing to be afraid of and safety was their number one priority. This took about half an hour.
When we were taking off I could not wait. On the aeroplane me and my dad felt heaps of turbulence.
(There are many different causes of turbulence that can affect the plane.
One kind of turbulence is called mechanical. This is caused by wind flow that blows over the hills which causes unstable air flow. So when the plane hits the unstable air it causes the plane to bump. The other kind of turbulence is weather related, this is most likely to be in a storm cloud due to unstable air.
The final kind of turbulence is altitude related.This means when a jet plane reaches cruise altitude. There is a place in the sky called the jet stream . The turbulence is caused by very strong winds. The jet stream surrounded by The Stratosphere and The Troposphere winds are very strong and pressure changes may cause turbulence)
I would say our flight was fairly smooth.
Then our plane landed you could see a puff of smoke.
When I was driving back to my family I could not wait to see them. That night I did not get any sleep. Then one day I got a big surprise my dad said that if I went to bed early we might get to go to dream world . So I did, then that morning I woke up then I heard my dad say "come on Callum get ready we're going to Movie World" .I was so excited! That was such a long drive. When we got there I was going bonkers to go on a ride. But first we went to a bakery and we had chicken rolls. I thought that it was nice but my dad did not think it was so good. The fastest ride at Movie World was called Superman.The roller coaster went 100k per hour in 2 seconds. It had a force of 4.2 positive and 1 negative G force. My dad got sick on a Scooby Doo ride. I went on a Batman ride. It just shot you up in the air really fast. There was this other ride that had to be the worse yet. It's called The Asylum. It hanged you upside down for ages and did heaps of spirals. This other one was the most frightening. There was a massive line where you went down backwards and I was at the back. I got soaking wet!
At the airport and on the plane I saw someone from my class called Jack.
Then my flight ended and I went back home. I liked it better in Australia when it was warm.
