A Trip To The Moon

Australia, 1959-1960

One day we decided to go for a trip to the moon and I was very excited. We made a rocket which we checked and checked to make sure that everything worked allright. Finally the big day arrived. I didn’t  feel very comfortable in my space suit and I thought I looked like a monster in it rather than a space-man. To be true I was a bit frightened at first but as soon as the rocket took off I forgot all about my fears. As we went higher and higher everything around us got darker until it became pitch black. The sight was beautiful. Now I really could see the stars twinkling and from time to time a satellite would pass-by to tell us that we were in space and that the moon wasn’t very far off.
