ahh yes, and before i forget: a great story to entertain you all!

Schipohol Airport; The Escalator Escapades.

this story begins with 4 wonderful ladies on their journey for a fun filled day of adventures and laughter. while Becky, Tess, Rachael and Laura were looking for the right platform for their train, there was a mysterious hold up at the top of an escalator... after taking a closer look, it seems as though a mother in her mid-40's along with her 2 small children were baffled by the escalator. they were halted and showed no intention of proceding onward. after a gathering of people waiting to decend the wonderful moving staircase, the mother and her children started getting ancy...
in what seems like slow motion, the little boy(about 3 years old) decided to take on these amazing stairs.. one step, good... two steps, good... three steps, no good!!! suddenly realizing it was moving and his mother was moving farther and farther away, he tried running up. the mother at this point was getting all nervous, so just like any other mother, she grabbed for her son. he made it safly back to the top of the escalator... but in the mothers sweet endevors, she herself somehow ended up riding down the escalator, with her youngest child in arms... becky grabs the youngest child, saving it from what might be down those terrifing stairs... Laura tried despratly to help the mother escape this horrifing stair monster, but try as she might, Laura could only hold on for so long.. slowly, slowly, slowly the escalator carries the mother down, down, down. suddenly out of nowhere a man appears coming up the opposite escalator, he pushes everyone out of the way, grabs his son, and takes on the escalators like a man. he slowly rides to his wife, who at this point is still riding the escalator, laying down, hand stretched out, waiting for someone to just grab on and save her. up at the top the Tess and Laura grabed what was left behind; diaper bags, purses, ect and make our decent towards the distrot mother. becky handed the mother her child, asked if everything was ok. without an extra look or care, the mother and her family disapared into the crowds...
that day will forever be rememberd by The Escalator Escapades.
THE END
