My vacation disaster
Although I work in downtown Philadelphia now, I like going to the mountains when I
can. Last winter I decided to spend a week in Vermont. I wanted to go skiing and
walking in the mountains. I looked on the Internet and booked a cabin (a small
house) for a week. One Friday night last November, I packed my bags, went to
Philadelphia airport, and waited to get on a plane to Burlington.

Then the problems started. The plane didn’t leave that night. There was a lot of
snow in Vermont and they closed the Burlington airport. So I spent the night at the
Philadelphia airport. I drank a lot of coffee and read a lot of newspapers. I tried to
sleep, but I wasn’t comfortable. The next morning, Burlington airport opened again,
and we arrived in Vermont. But my bags weren’t there.

I rented a car and drove to the cabin. It was a 45-minute drive from the airport.
When I arrived, there was a family with two little children in the cabin! They booked
on the Internet, too – for the same week. The family was really nice. They said I
could sleep in the living room, and they cooked dinner for me.

The next day, I got my bags from the airport and decided to go skiing. But the
mountain road was closed because of the snow. I didn’t ski and I didn’t go walking in
the mountains. I spent the week in the cabin waiting to go home – it wasn’t my
favorite vacation!
