We can see them from the plane
this long line
of headlights coming
through the darkness
Off of the airplane
Ladies and gentlemen
you can take
only your carry-on items
Any checked luggage will remain
in the hold
Into the airport
The captain and flight
attendants tell everyone
to take the blankets
and pillows off the plane
Out of the windows
We grab bottles of water too
no one has any idea
where they're taking us
Darkness and trees
As we enter the airport
all those car lights are
still aimed at us
We're scared
They're probably scared too
The people here don't know
what to expect off of these planes
The airport looks
like something left over
from the Cold War Kevin is like
Oh my god We've gone back in time
The whole procedure
the soldiers and all the formality
it just makes me really nervous
There's a giant map
on the wall of the airport
and someone has written
in red marker
You are here
Excuse me I need to find a phone
I need to call my son
I'm sorry
The pay phones are out of order
They're all lined up
at the airport pay phones
So eventually
we put an Out of Order
sign on them just
so we can get people
on the busses
11:48 pm Busses
and driver are now
taking passengers to shelters
not just in Gander
but also to Gambo Appleton
and farther communities
of Lewisporte
Norris Arm and Glenwood
Our bus sits there forever
While all the others leave
Finally this other passenger
gets on
This guy from the Middle East
Someone says he got questioned
Some says he got searched
And now he's on our bus
I try to interview the Red Cross
the Salvation Army
but they've got
more important things
to do than talk to me
That's when I see them
the Plane People
through the bus windows
The terror on their faces
They have no idea
where they're going
They take me and my crew
in a separate van
and I'm looking out the window
trying to see where we are
but it is pitch dark
I've flown over this area hundreds
and hundreds of times
And it is just darkness
hardly and lights anywhere
And now here I am
Oh my god
this is just so remote
Into the darkness
Stars and the moonlight
But all around us
Nothing but darkness
Out of the windows
Into the darkness
Darkness and trees
Every school bus
we got is goin' back
and forth all night
Out to the Salvation Army Camp
we've delivered passengers
from Germany
England and France
And around 3 in the morning
my bus is designated to take
all these
African people out there
So we starts driving
into the darkness
Into the darkness
My family and I try to see out
the bus windows
No one tells us where we are going
Onto a gravel road
Silence comes on the bus
We get outside of Gander
and you could hear a pin drop
And all around us
My wife and daughter are scared
They ask me what is happening
and I do not know
Darkness and trees
Behind me
this big man comes up to me
and he says in this low voice
Wewe watuchukuwa wapi
What's that now
