RE: Distracted, befuddled, bewildered and not concentrating on the right things.
That's definitely an interesting start to a story. I was hoping they could have a nice little adventure, but it sounds like they're in for some rough times.
The one word that jolted me a bit was "tarmac." You used it at least twice and although I had it figured out the second time, the first time it jarred me. In the US, we really only use the word tarmac to reference an airport, so I was confused, but figured out that I thought you meant road, roadway, highway, interstate, asphalt.
It's strange how even countries that speak the same language can use words so differently. :)
Ooh thank you! Asphalt it shall be!
I was trying to give the story a more 'Americanised... sorry... Americanized' feel to it and that piece of observation is golden! Thank you!
