much warmer once we’re in the sky, the propane gas tanks keep you toasty. There’s a definite chill to the air at this time of day though, so I’m very excited to see the sun creeping out as we drift over the tops of the forests.
Isabella is brilliant, capturing every moment on film. She’s been taking short films, as well as hundreds of photos, allowing the rest of us to relax and enjoy the experience. I feel guilty, after all the whole experience was in her honour. But then I see the massive smile on her beautiful face and realise she’s loving her experience just as much as us, if not more and she’s able to choose which bits she wants to show people and remember herself.
‘When we land, do you think I can look through your photos? I think I’d like to do a story about this for the paper, but I’ll need some truly amazing shots to show my boss to be able to justify something so touristy.’
Isabella looks so please d, I’m worried for a moment she may jump up and down, and I can assure you, this is not the place for that.
‘Yes! If it means having something published then you can have any photos you want!’
Josh puts his protective arm around Isabella’s shoulders, a look of pride on his face.
‘You should see if you can get him to agree to feature a tourism section. I’ve sent these girls to my must see places. Places that some of the locals won’t have been to themselves, shame on them.’
The guide is dancing from foot to foot, it looks like he’s been listening into their conversation, but doesn’t want to admit it. Although, he’s clearly desperate to say something, but feels like he should keep quiet.
‘What do you think? Do you think the Florida Times should have a tourism special dedicated to my friends photos?’
I watch as Izzy and the boys turn their confused attention from me to the man, who up until this point has just been point out the sights, and administering the fire as and when needed.
‘Well, I’d have to speak to my manager, but I’m sure if you could write an article about us, we’d be able to offer some discounted flights. It’d be free publicity after all, and in the Florida times no less! I love that paper; I read it every day, what’s your name?’
Ollie looks a bit embarrassed but before he can reply, Josh jumps in, clearly excited at the thought of his friend having his very own fan.
‘You my good man are looking Mr Oliver Clarke. One of the best reporters there is. He also takes photos but he’s not quite as good as my girlfriend, although he’s learning quickly.’
The guy turns to gawp at Ollie; it’s clear from his reaction that he’s familiar with Ollie’s work.
‘Wow, it’s great to meet you Mr Clarke. I read your articles every day. You’re my favourite journalist. I always read yours first. I really think you should have your own column!’
He’s so animated and it makes me feel so proud of Ollie. I feel a bit guilty that I have yet to read one of his articles. As soon as we land, I’ll buy a copy and study it; after all, he is my boyfriend now.
‘Rather than a tourism section, you should tell your boss my story and see if you can get your own column where you do a daily blog about me.’
It worries me that Isabella sounds serious about this. I don’t think she’d actually like everyone reading about her. About what pain relief she has to take day by day, when she’s in too much pain to move, when she can do nothing but cry to relieve the tension. These times haven’t started yet luckily, she seems to managing with painkillers but that could change at any point.
‘I don’t know about that. It may be a bit much; do you really want everyone to know? If we started it, you’d have to give me
