Choose the word for each blank.

Last year I went to Germany. It was a 1 to Germany not for leisure but for exchange. This was the worst trip that I have 2 on. We transferred via Amsterdam. We arrived half an hour ahead of the time that plane was supposed to take off, but the plane was late, so we took another flight which was flying to a wrong destination. It 3 at another airport, hundreds of miles away from where I supposed to be. All we could do was waiting for the next 4 flight to take us. So, we waited for 5 hour and a half. Everyone was exhausted. No wonder we all hope to go home straight away.
