Best trip in my life

This South West trip was one of the greatest trips in my life. It was a first time to go to the South West of the U.S. I went to many places, and especially Route 66, desert landscape, and Grand Canyon were inspirational for me.
First, I was really glad to go to Route 66! Actually, to go to Route 66 was one of my dreams because my favorite movie, Cars, took place there. Route 66 is one of the streets which takes us all over the U.S. When I stood on Route 66, I was so moved. I saw a lot of cars. Also I could take a picture of the Route 66 sign. I was so happy to make my dream come true.
Secondly, I was astonished at the deserted landscape. I expected that Arizona had a desert, but I didn’t expect it to be so huge. When we drove on the highway, I saw only the desert. I also was surprised at the plants in the desert. Most of the plants were bushes, and I also could see many cacti. One of the cacti was three times as tall as me! I thought that a desert had no plants, but only sand. However, I learned that desert plants could live with a little water so in the desert there were many plants. I thought that nature was really strong.
Finally, Grand Canyon was so great! Actually, I didn’t look forward to it so much because I didn’t want to be disappointed. I was afraid if Grand Canyon was smaller than I thought. However, it was completely beyond my expectation. It was ten times bigger than I expected. The view of the Grand Canyon landscape occupied my whole sight. Also, the altitude was so high and the ground was very far. I was really moved by the view. The sunrise there was also spectacular. The sun was like a diamond, and the rocks shone like gold. I was nearly crying. The Grand Canyon was the best view I’ve ever seen.
In conclusion, I could see a lot of magnificent things. I’d never known what the South West was like until then, so all of them I saw through this trip were inspirational for me.

Fabulous Southwest Trip

    The Southwest trip was absolutely amazing because I leaned the culture of the area a lot. I spent 7 days in the southwest and I impressed by people who live there and by their culture. These things were totally different from Japan and the people there preserved their traditions carefully. I talk to a lot of Americans and I saw wonderful nature during the trip. There are three absolutely wonderfu and amazing places that I enjoyed.     First, I went to a lot of museums and all of them were very interesting. I especially liked The Museum of International Folk Art. The museum has more than 130,000 objects from more than 100 countries! My favorite object was a smiling skeleton doll. This object’s theme was Day of The Dead. When I saw it, I remembered COCO which is a Pixar movie. I also liked The Georgia O’Keeffe Museum. Georgia O’Keeffe was an American artist and she painted a lot of flowers and nature. I think her paintings are brimming with kindness ...

Respectable Voice of The Japanese American

Respectable Voice of The Japanese American Chisato Fujii             When I saw this poem, I felt strong feeling of this poet like “I am an American,” and I also felt this poet’s voice like “Why am I not treated as an American?” I’ve never lived in this period of world war Ⅱ , and of course, I’ve never experienced this suffering and war, but I could feel people’s voice of this period thanks to this poet. Without these Japanese Americans’ voices, I couldn’t feel and understand their feeling and thought. When I understand this poem’s meaning, this poem made me sad, but I also understood Japanese Americans were proud of themselves in the middle of the war. I respect them and am proud.

I really wanted to go to  the Grand Canyon, so my dreams came true. We went to the Mather point at first. That was my first time to see the Grand Canyon. I was really surprised and impressed.

The next day, I woke up early. I went to Yaki point to see the sunrise with teachers. That day was really cold and windy, so whe...
