Read the events and use appropriate time words and phrases to retell the story. Events: I wasn't looking forward to going on holiday I checked in and waited to board the plane The plane took off I fell asleep The pilot announced that we were landing in Kingston I realised I was on the wrong plane I explained the problem to the authorities The airline agreed to pay for my stay in Jamaica I spent a week in Jamaica. Original story: The day of my holiday arrived, but I wasn’t looking forward to it. I had little money and had only been able to afford to stay with my Aunt Rosa in Spain. So, I wasn’t really thrilled as I knew exactly what it was going to be like: lots of noisy cousins, and Aunt Rosa begging me to take her for a ride After I had checked in, I made my way slowly to the departure gate. As I was waiting to board the plane, I kept thinking about my ideal holiday destination: Jamaica, with its long, sandy, beaches and crystal clear water As soon as the plane took of, I felt fast asleep and only woke to sound of the announcement: Ladies and gentlemen, please fasten your seatbelts, as we will shortly be landing in Kingston. I froze in my seat. Was I dreaming? Kingston? Jamaica? I had boarded the wrong plane! Immediately after the plane had landed, I explained the situation to the authorities. It seems there were also three other passengers heading for Spain. Apparently it had been the airline’s fault, since the flight numbers for Spain and Jamaica were exactly the same! Therefore, with no flight back to London for a week, the airline had no choice but to pay for our stay! So there I was, lying on the beach, enjoying the music and sampling the marvelous food of Jamaica! As for Aunt Rosa, I suppose she just had to live without me
