Completely amazing trip

By
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 around there. It made me really exhausted but I got a precious experience which can see the beautiful landscape at the Grand Canyon.

Second, I felt the power of an earth by blowing a hole in Wupatki National Monument. The warm air and cold air were blowing up from the hole. It seems unknown where the hole is connected. That's a mystery. I have never seen and heard anything like this hole. There are many pueblo rooms and I and my friends guessed what kind of room is there. I thought everything looked like a similar room. It is mysterious to think that old people lived there. By the way, I did search on this place before the trip in American West class so I was excited. As a result, it was better legacy than I expected.
Third, I felt a difference between Santa Fe and other places I have visited in the USA. All the buildings were made with adobe, and the whole city was brown. We enjoyed the landscape. Also, we enjoyed Mexican food such as tacos, black beans, and avocado. In addition, there was honey in all the restaurants which I visited and we ate tacos with honey and it was very delicious. I want to try that again. In the morning, people sold a lot of accessories such as necklaces, rings, and bracelets which used turquoise and other stones in front of the Plaza. I bought a turquoise bracelet because Santa Fe is famous for turquoise. Now, it has become my favorite accessory. Also, I was surprised that Santa Fe is movie stage city of my favorite movie which is COCO. It was like Mexico.

In conclusion, I had a totally wonderful time on this trip. I could see beautiful landscape, good legacy, and interesting culture of Santa Fe. I have learned lots of new things like history on this trip. All the places where I went to this time were surrounded by nature and my mind calmed down. I was impressed by beautiful scenery and I got very nice memories. I want to go there again with my family.

Unforgettable Southwest Trip

By
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 chip

Really Faburous Southwest Trip

I had an absolutely amazing experience on the Southwest trip in mid-October. I enjoyed a good deal of beautiful scenery of nature and city areas, delicious food and performances, and culture. I spent a lot of wonderful time with my friends and teachers in Santa Fe, Black Bart’s Restaurant and the Grand Canyon. I enjoyed a good deal of beautiful scenery of nature and city, delicious food and performance, and culture. First, my one of impressive places was Santa Fe Plaza. There were brown houses and buildings made of adobe, and the doors and window frames and decorations were colorful. I like passionate red and turquoise blue color because these colors match the adobe brown color. Also, there were many gift shops in the Plaza, and we could find a lot of native Americans gifts such as dream catchers, pottery, fabrics, unique fashion accessories, dishes, and traditional clothes. I bought a dreamcatcher, some pretty earrings, a ring, and postcards, so I was very happy. It rained at nig

My Valuable Southwest Trip

By
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
