ところで、私はオリビア。昨年、私は世界を見ようと決心し、貯金を始めました。今年の誕生日直前に、一生に一度のオーストラリア旅行のための十分なお金を貯めることができたの。壮大な旅になるし、自分への最高の誕生日プレゼントになるわ。

I went through my packing list for the third time, making sure I had all the essentials for my trip. Clothes, toiletries, and travel documents. Check, check, and check.

荷造りが終わると、空港までタクシーを呼んだ。タクシーの窓から街が通り過ぎるのを見ながら、興奮がこみ上げてきた。街角やランドマークを通るたびに、これが本当に起こっていることなのだと実感した。私は今、オーストラリアに向かっているのだ。

Arriving at the airport, I found the check-in counter and joined the queue to check in my luggage. The line seemed to stretch on forever, but finally, it was my turn.

空港に着いてチェックインカウンターを見つけ、荷物を預ける列に加わった。列はどこまでも続いているように見えたが、ようやく私の番が回ってきた。

緊張と興奮を感じながら、私は保安検査場に向かった。近づくにつれ、少し心配になった。手荷物がスキャナーを通過するのをじっと見ていた。荷物が出てくるまで息を止めた。何も問題がなかったとき、私はほっとした。そして荷物を受け取り、歩き続けた。

With some time to spare before my flight, I decided to grab a quick bite to eat at one of the airport cafes. While enjoying my coffee, I observed the busy airport scene, with people bustling in various directions. It was fascinating to see everyone heading off to different destinations.

フライトまで少し時間があったので、空港内のカフェで腹ごしらえをすることにした。コーヒーを楽しみながら、空港の賑やかな光景を眺めた。みんなそれぞれの目的地に向かっているのが興味深かった。

Soon enough, it was time to board the plane. Walking down the jet bridge, I felt a mix of nerves and excitement. Stepping onto the aircraft, I located my seat and eagerly prepared for the incredible journey that lay ahead. As the plane taxied down the runway and took off into the sky, I couldn't help but smile. I was finally on my way to Australia, ready for the adventure of a lifetime. I'll share more of my journey when I arrive. Stay tuned.

やがて搭乗の時間となった。ジェットブリッジを歩いていると、緊張と興奮が入り混じっていた。機内に足を踏み入れ、自分の座席を決め、これから始まる素晴らしい旅への準備を熱望した。飛行機が滑走路をタキシングして空に飛び立つと、私は思わず笑みを浮かべた。一生に一度の冒険のために、私はついにオーストラリアへと旅立ったのだ。オーストラリアに到着したら、また旅の続きを紹介するつもりだ。お楽しみに。
