Story: Animal Airlines 

As I am sitting in my dusty seat I hear captain polar bear say his announcement. We are about to take off we do wish you a pleasant flight to Alaska. when we are up in the air some brown bouncy kangaroos  come jumping around with drinks in there pouches and some small snacks like chips and bananas. They pass down food for those who  want them. Then the wolves star to pass around a list of things to do and one of the things that you can do is get a foot massage so I ask one of the wolves  if I could have one. He took me to the to the back of the plane where you got your feet massaged. when i walked in to the massage room there were lots of tall  giraffes. that's when I realised that the tall giraffes actually massage you feet with there antlers so I refuse to get one. 

on the way back to my seat I saw lots of cute, cuddly koalas hugging people. Some baby koalas are also cuddling the kids. when I walk back captain polar bear says over the speaker that we are about to land. when we land I was the last one to get of the plane and suddenly some wild horses come chasing after me but they were actually kicking the seats in.
