But later I came to know that these 2 boys were travelling without any company from Singapore to Los Angels. Really I got terrified with their courages.. They were very casual. But I am restless on the entire travel.. Namma pasangala schoolku busla anuparathukae payapadaroom ivangala paarungaaa..

After one flight takes off another will reach the run way and follows.. It looks some what like our Koyambedu bus terminal exit where buses will be in queued up.

After reached Los Angels completed the immigration Check.. aviga thaan nama US kula varadhugu ticket(I-94) kodupaanga... they have the power to deport us back from US. Oru valiyaa yellam sulabaamaa mudinchuthu....

At the airport exit orutharu kita vazhi kettom avarum vazhi sollitu intro pannikitaaru.. unmaiyaa poiyaanu theiryaadhu but he told that he is from FBI and Colleting funds for some child trust and asked donation. Alla vidungada saaminu kelambi vandhutoom...

Once again waited for the airhostess.. site adika thaan.. But yen aasiyula manae alli pootutaanga... oru paati vandhaanga airhostessaa... what to do... yellam namma nalla neram thaan.
