This trip was SO marvelous for me and I could learn tons of things such as different cultures, food, people, weather, and buildings. I don't think about Spokane and South America are same country. Also, we had many troubles which we couldn't go to Arizona on the first day and we used the second day just for moving from Spokane to Albuquerque. However, the travelling became my fabulous memory because of such a big troubles.
First of all, I went to Arizona via Route 66 to go to the Acoma school. It was very interested for me to be the differences of culture in school. The students showed us traditional dance. It was unexpected because I thought the dance was like jazz or no singing but they played traditional instruments and sang traditional songs and danced. I was very surprised at them. Also, a song lyrics was difficult for me. I think it was not English. However, they shouted like animal’s voices. I was surprised at them. The last song was sung in English. The song lyrics was pretty nice because they sang like we are friends. I was glad to listen to the songs.Also, they looked enjoying singing so it made me encourages. Moreover, most of them were similar to Asian faces so I think it is not American like Asian. Also, they had interesting habits like they don't like being taken pictures by other people. I was surprised at these things.
Next, I went to the plaza in Santa Fe, there was so excited for me. In the plaza, there were a lot of shops such as jewels, homemade jewels, restaurants, and miscellaneous goods. I went to restaurant to eat traditional food. Unfortunately, I didn't eat traditional food but ate kind of a traditional hamburger in Santa Fe. It was very delicious. Then, I went to the palace of governors. There were many shops and everyone sold homemade jewels. These were so beautiful and we can ask about reduction. It's good for us but I didn't have
opportunities to ask them. So I want to go there again and ask them. Santa Fe was so cool place.
Finally, I went to the amazing Grand Canyon!!!! I couldn’t say about the appealings just using the word because the Grand Canyon is extremely marvelous. The Grand Canyon is 5,000 million years old and it was made by eruption. I was really surprised at the power of nature. I couldn’t believe it. Also, I rode a bicycle to go to the Orange line. I totally enjoyed it because I could see the view riding a bicycle and stop to see the view whenever I wanted to. Also, the wind was good. Moreover, it was different to see the Grand Canyon from different places so I could see a lot of faces of the Grand Canyon changing the point of view. It was outstandingly fantastic. I won't forget this view. If I can, I want to go there again. Also, I want everyone to go there because I can't explain about very beautiful Grand Canyon without going there.
In conclusion, this trip was extraordinarily amazing even though I lost 2 days because of the accident. Also, I could learn not only the difference states, but also the culture, food and people. I can grow up as a student through this trip. If I can, I want to go there to know more information. Also, I want to appreciate to teacher's and adviser’s help.
