Last July, my husband and I went on a trip to China.
We bought the plane tickets online, and they were very cheap.
The flight was at eight in the morning, so we got up at five.
We took a taxi to the airport, and there were very few cars on the road.
When we got to the airport, my husband said he had left his watch at home.
I said, "That's OK, you have your phone."
The plane flew for eight hours.
On the plane, I watched two movies, and my husband slept for a long time.
When we got off the plane, it was very hot outside.
We took the subway to the hotel; the hotel was very close to the subway station.
Although we were tired, we were both very happy.
