The southwest is completely different from Spokane. The most surprising thing for me was how big nature is. I felt nature with all senses. Even now, my body remembers it.

In Albuquerque, the land was huge. The land is flat and can see horizon. There are no tall tree and no forest there. Soil’s color was red, brown and reddish brown. Plants covered the land. It was like polka dot.

 The rock mountain in Acoma showed presence. It was like a huge table. The rock mountain like a wall. The sky was significantly blue because of the rock mountain
 The Grand Canyon view was the most beautiful. There were no words to say about it when I saw it. It was huge and powerful. It seemed like Grand Canyon was alive and breathing. It release special power. Nobody spoke loudly.
 The Grand Canyon sunset view was interesting. The rock’s color was different where it is located. As time passed, the color also changed. It’s sound awesome, right?
 The sunrise at Grand Canyon was the most beautiful. It was so cold and windy. The sky’s color was changing black to orange. Finally, the sun appeared. The sun was shining, so it was like a jewelry.


At Grand Canyon, you can rent a bike. You can ride a bike all the way to the end of the view point. Then, you can do picnic and see beautiful view. You can stop and see anywhere you want. It was great to see all of the Grand Canyon’s view point.

The southwest’s nature was so great and so big. I cannot explain how beautiful it is. It was completely different from what I have seen. It’s like a other world.

My Valuable Southwest Trip

Last week, we took a trip to the Southwest for 7 days. This trip was an absolutely wonderful memory. I had never been to these areas so I was stimulated by every things, for example, cactus, adobe style buildings, Native American culture and amazing dessert views. It is one of the most interesting trips I ever took, because I experienced some rare things like visiting Grand Canyon, visiting high school and so on. On this trip I could understand about Indian culture from a folk art museum. I would like to introduce some my best memories on this Southwest trip. My first best memory is Georgia O’Keef museum. Actually, before this trip, I was not familiar with her and didn’t know about any of her artworks, but I was looking forward to visiting here because I like art museums. Her artworks were very unique, abstract and absolutely fabulous, and these were very fresh to me. I especially liked bone’s paintings which one of the most famous her artwork, because the color contrast is very c...

Unforgettable Southwest Trip

I went on a totally amazing Southwest trip with my classmates. The trip was my first time to go to the Southwest so everything was new to me. Sarah, Anikke and Bethany came with us. They made our trip more exciting. I’m happy I could go on this trip with them and I had a lot of great experiences. First, I really enjoyed New Mexico. It was chilly but not too cold. I went to the Old Town in  Albuquerque, New Mexico. I liked the Old Town because there are many cute things and good restaurants in there. For example, I found a gate that was decorated with a lot of red chili peppers. I had never seen anything like that before so I was very surprised and it looked like a lot of flowers from a distance. The red chili peppers were absolutely gorgeous. Not only that, I found a great restaurant. I forgot the name of the restaurant but they have really delicious Mexican food. They gave me some Mexican chips for free and recommended that I eat the chips with honey. I really like Mexican ...

Completely amazing trip

I had a good time visiting the Southwest USA with Extension students from 15 to 21, October. It was an education trip and I experienced new things and there was a lot of nature which is comfortable for me. I was looking forward to going on the Southwest trip for a long time. I have image that the Southwest is very hot but this place was cold than Spokane. It was interesting that the temperature was totally different in the same place. There were three emotions that I experienced on this trip. First, I was moved by the beautiful landscape of the Grand Canyon. It is absolutely enormous. When I look down the cliff, I remembered the teacher's caution for us that there are lots of people who die and I scared. I and my roommate wanted to see the sunrise so we tried to got up at 4:00 a.m. and then we could see the sunrise which was really fabulous. After that, we decided to rent a  bicycle but we changed our mind and because we had lots of time. Surprisingly, we walked 10 miles aro...
