Hi Peter,
I am at the airport now. My plane to Hong Kong leaves in two hours, so I have time to write.
I am a little nervous. This is my first long flight, and I am going alone. My family talked about it for a long time, but in the end they let me go. My mother put some chocolate and a book in my bag.
My uncle will meet me outside the airport tomorrow morning. He is very helpful, and he speaks good English.
I will send you photos later. Please water my plant!

Ships are slow, but they are still very important. Nine out of ten things we buy travel by ship. Big ships carry oil, cars, corn and even doughnuts across the ocean.
A plane is much faster. It can fly from Taipei to Hong Kong in less than two hours. Large planes can also carry things, but the cost is high.
Therefore, people send letters and small things by plane, and heavy things by ship. Both of them help us sell things to other countries and buy things from far away.
Here are today's flights from Taipei. The board shows four flights in the morning.
| Flight | To | Time | Gate |

Please go to your gate sixteen minutes before your flight leaves.
