Elizabeth seemed like an ordinary person - just another old lady sitting on the deck of a cruise
ship. I wouldn't have started talking to her if I hadn't noticed that everyone on the ship knew
her name: from the captain to the cleaners. Elizabeth told me that she'd moved into a cabin on
the cruise ship nine years earlier, and had never left. Elizabeth pays £4,000 a month to stay
on the ship about the same as a hotel room on land. But the ship has great food and
entertainment, and Elizabeth sees the world!

It was 3 a.m., and I just wanted to sleep. But the people cleaning the departure lounge had
other ideas.
"You can't stay here. You have to move!"
I wanted to say, 'Look, if a hurricane hadn't hit Cuba, they wouldn't have cancelled my flight -
and I wouldn't be trying to sleep on your floor. Does it look like I'm having fun?'
But, of course, I just picked up my things, walking back to the all-night airport café. It was my
third cup of coffee that night, and I wasn't feeling very good. 'If anyone else tells me to move,'
I thought, 'I'll scream!'

I was sitting on a flight to São Paulo, enjoying a film, when someone cried, 'Look! The
engine's caught fire!' Moments later, the captain made an announcement.
'Ladies and gentlemen, both our engines have stopped. We're trying to start them, so please
stay calm.'
Calm - we were falling out of the sky! People began to scream. The cabin crew rushed
around. I cried! Then suddenly, the left engine came back to life.
'Ladies and gentlemen,' the captain announced, sounding happier this time, we're going to
land in Senegal, West Africa. I hear it's nice at this time of year."
On our first day in New York, we went for a walk through Central Park, sitting on a bench to
eat hotdogs. Then we left the park, planning to go to the Empire State Building. We were
walking down Fifth Avenue, enjoying the sunny weather, when my Mum suddenly cried, 'Oh
no. I've left our bag in the park."
'My camera is in that bag!" Megan said. 'It wouldn't have happened if you'd been more
careful, Dad said. But I just said, 'Let's stop blaming Mum and go back to the park.' And
luckily someone had found our bag and hidden it behind the bench, thinking we might come
back for it.
