Spokane Interstate Fair

I enjoyed and learn American culture such as food, exhibitions, and ride at Spokane Interstate Fair.
First of all, I ate Gyros and Elephant Ear. Gyros is a kind of Greek food with meat and vegetables. It was delicious. The meat was lamb. Although it was a first experience to eat lamb, it was so tasty. I ate an Elephant Ear as well. It is not a real “elephant ear”; it is dough with powdered cinnamon and sugar. It was so big, but I ate the whole of thing with my roommate. After we finished eating, we were astonished at our appetite. Next, I saw many exhibitions, because one of my teacher recommended me to see that. I learned the exhibition was held by “4-H”. “4-H” is an organization like girl scouts. It gives some children many experiences to cook, and to learn nutrition. One of the exhibition booths is a competition of big vegetables. I saw surprisingly huge pumpkins.  Finally, I rode a ride. We get into a thing like a cage and turn it many times. It looks more dangerous than Japanese ones so I wasn’t willing to ride, but I supposed it might be a good experience for me. I rode on it with my friend.  On the ride, she screamed and finally cried. On the other hand, I enjoyed it very much at last, because I saw a beautiful moon and sights on the top of the ride. Spokane Interstate Fair was so fun and taught me a lot of American culture.

Neccesary Shopping

I can do amazing shopping in the U.S. I don’t actually go shopping so often in Japan because I don’t want to spend money. However, I can’t help buying things here. One of the reasons I love the U.S. is shopping. I am so excited to go shopping here more than in Japan. A shopping in America is fantastic for three reasons. My Favorite Clothes of Holister First of all, there are many kinds of shops in Spokane. That means I have many choices to buy something. In Japan, I can’t buy easily things I want because Japan doesn’t have my favorite shops. In addition, I have to pay more in Japan than in America. If someone asks me my recommendation in America, I’d introduce incredible shops, such as Hollister , Bath and Body , Victoria’s Secret , and American Eagle , and Yankee. These shops are highly famous in the U.S, and I can't buy products of Hollister and Bath and body and Victoria’s Secret in Japan except online shopping. The other thing, I can visit other shops in Japan, but I’m s...

My Precious Experience

 The Awesome View at the Fair I have been having a good time since I came here. The teachers, RAs and staff at MFWI welcomed us warmly, so I was very happy and I am also happy now. My life at MFWI is little different from the last semester, but I'm really enjoying this life. Anyway, we went to  the Spokane Interstate Fair  on Tuesday, and I had wonderful experiences that I had never experienced before.  The food was very appetizing. First, I was very hungry when we arrived there, so I ate a funnel cake, a big piece of chicken and some pizza. I had never eaten such a big cake and a piece of chicken, so I was excited and happy to eat them. They were very tasty, so I wanted to eat more food. Then, I noticed that a difference between America and Japan. Japanese festivals or fairs also have many branch stores and the food they serve...

My Unbelievable Southwest Trip

I experienced a lot of amazing things for seven days with my absolutely wonderful teachers and friends from October 15-21 and learned a lot of Southwest culture, history, and nature. For example, we went to about 12 museums and facilities, such as the Pueblo Cultural Center, the University of Mexico, and some churches in New Mexico and Arizona. Therefore, I kept busy on the trip, but it became something I have never experienced because everything I saw was new to me. There are three things that especially impressed me. First, I was attracted to the buildings of New Mexico. These were really different from Spokane, Boston, or Washington D.C. For example, I went to Old Town in Albuquerque. Then I noticed that almost all the buildings were made of adobe. Adobe means mud brick in Spanish, so the buildings I saw were brown and some parts were air blue. I felt comfortable there. I also saw a plaza and a church which were adobe style buildings. The plaza is the most central part in Old T...
