Isla Powell, at age five, started saving up for a ticket on the London Eye. Isla was determined to save enough money for her whole family: four people, four tickets. The London Eye is a “humongous” ferris wheel in London, England. The ride is more than just a huge ferris wheel, what you sit in is basically a big glass box that goes 443 feet up in the air!
But back to Isla Powell. Isla saved up from five years old to eight years old. That’s three whole years! Now Isla is nine years old, Isla says that London was the funniest vacation that she’s ever been on!
When Isla was eight she had finally saved enough money and Isla’s parents took Isla and her sister on a surprise trip to London!
Now Isla wants to go to London again because her last trip was so fun. This time Isla says that she is going to buy a ticket on the plane to London for just herself. Isla knows that this might take a little more time than before but she is determined to test herself and save the money.
’’ In the future I want to save enough money to go somewhere far like turkey or France” Isla said
