The alarm went off at 3:00. At first, I didn't want to get up, but in a split second, I realized the importance of this specific call... Today, I am setting off on an independent, dizzying journey... To the dream of millions, to America... My parents and I are having breakfast together for the last time this summer... My dear mom was getting emotional; the table was filled with all my favorite dishes)))) After half an hour of pure enjoyment, I am heading to the airport with my parents and a couple of close friends. My phone is already blowing up, my friends are panicking about my absence—while I am busy admiring my treasure, my hometown.
Airport. The first news I heard—some issues with our departure to the Foreign Dream... The second, in principle, everything is in place—so our coordinators are sorting everything out right now....
6:00, phew, we finally boarded, and... The plane is taking off... Oh, this incredible feeling—the first Rubicon has been crossed—Austria, Vienna, here we come.
Airport. Vienna. Nighttime Vienna, filled with thousands of lights, revealed an incredibly beautiful sight to us... The bright red signature uniforms of the flight attendants quickly stuck in our memory)))) Oh yes, I forgot to share—we were warned about one nuance))) we have to wait 24 hours in Vienna for our plane to the Big Apple... Since there were 56 of us woe-begone travelers, we had a lot of fun))) we decided to keep wonderful impressions even from such a situation))) - first, the commanders of our mini-squad, with honor (they didn't back down for a long time) and mostly using English and sign language, secured pillows and blankets for us), then we put on a whole show for representatives of different countries and nationalities in the waiting room—first, one of our virtuosos performed several dozen kuis on a national instrument, a couple of recordings were later found on YouTube) then we organized a mini flash mob—we visited the airport cafeteria, where it seemed everyone went crazy over our performance of this project))) oh yes, may the connection be active and stable - we called our relatives and they called us too—it's much cheaper for them to receive a call from outside!
