My Wonderful Time at Grand Canyon

Have you ever been to the South West? This is my first time to go there. I had a very good time on this trip. I saw many admirable views such as a sunset, sunrise, and daytime view and so on. I could wonderful experiences at Grand Canyon. I tell you about my wonderful South West trip. My memories at the Grand Canyon are awesome.

The Grand Canyon View

First, we went to see the marvelous sunset at the Mother Point at the Grand Canyon. There were many people, especially there were many Japanese there. When I saw them at first, I was surprised because I didn’t think there were many Japanese at the Grand Canyon. The view of the sunset was marvelous. I took a lot of pictures and also a lot of other people took pictures too. I took pictures with friends. We took a group picture and it is one of my precious treasures. The sky was pink and blue, so it was great and gorgeous. I had never seen such a beautiful sky. It made me speechless. Of course, when I saw the sun set down, it was mystic. I could see the best sunset in my life.

Second, I saw the fabulous sunrise at the Grand Canyon. It was my first time to see the sunrise. The scenery was also gorgeous. However, it was so early in the morning, about 6 a.m., so it was very cold. I regret that I didn’t bring my down jacket. I just stood on the rock and I saw the scenery. Some people like to take pictures, so I depended on them. I think it was my first and last time to see the sunrise at the Grand Canyon, so I had an extremely precious experience. When I saw the scenery, I thought the nature was important for us. Without nature, we can’t live. I was impressed by the view of sunrise.

The Sunset view

Third, I did a cycling trip at the Grand Canyon and this experience made one of my precious memories. It was very hard for me to cycle because I didn’t do exercise at all before. However, I didn’t regret cycling. There were many slopes there, so I felt really tired. Also during cycling, I had already muscle soreness because I seldom do exercise in Japan. However, the view was really really awesome, so it didn’t matter. I can’t believe I was at Grand Canyon. We took a lot of pictures there and these pictures are my treasure.

In short, my experiences at the Grand Canyon were essential. I was really happy to have decided to join the extension. If I didn’t come to America again, I wouldn’t have been able to go to the Grand Canyon. I really wanted to see it, so I enjoyed the trip. This trip is one of my best memories in my life. I won’t forget it forever.

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.
