Chapter 1
Foggy Flight to the Golden Gate
“Look, Jackson - the clouds are below me!”
I pressed my nose to the airplane window. Far beneath the wing, white clouds puffed like giant pillows. After four and a half hours in the air, I was finally flying into San Francisco, California.
My name is Scout, and I was traveling from Chicago to visit my company’s office by the ocean. I could not wait to see the Golden Gate Bridge. My little travel bag sat beside me, warm from my feet resting on it.
When the plane landed, cool air brushed my face. The airport sounded busy with rolling bags and soft beeps. I stretched my legs and picked up my bag.
Then I stopped.
My small red city map was gone.
“Oh, crumbs,” I said. “I need that to find the office.”
I checked my bag twice. I looked under the seat. Nothing. A kind airport helper named Andy saw me searching.
“Is this your map?” he asked.
He held up a folded red paper. It had slipped beside the seat.
“Yes! Thank you!” I said. “I thought San Francisco had already hidden it.”
“The city has lots of hills. Keep your map close.”
Outside, I climbed into a car. The ride began with a gentle hum. Soon, the road curved up, then down, then up again. San Francisco’s hills rose like playground ramps. The fog drifted around them like soft gray cotton.
I held my bag tight. “Which way is down?”
The driver laughed kindly. “We will get there safely. The streets only look like roller coasters.”
I peeked through the window. Bright houses climbed the hills. Tall buildings stood close together. The ocean flashed blue through the mist, and cool salt air filled the car.
At last, we reached my company’s office near the water. It was in an old army building with wide windows and sturdy floors. I stepped out and saw the Golden Gate Bridge glowing orange through the fog.
“Wow,” I whispered.
The bridge looked like a giant toy bridge stretching over the ocean. I wanted to stare all day. But a friendly worker opened the office door.
“Ready for your first workday, Scout?” she asked.
I looked once more at the bridge, then picked up my bag.
“Yes,” I said. “I am ready.”
I had reached San Francisco, but my busy adventure was just beginning. Sometimes a new place feels puzzling at first, but a kind hand and a brave little step can help you find your way.
