CHICAGO
I woke up
at 3 o’clock in the morning, and the trip had begun.
I was
absolutely tired, my family and I were going to Barcelona’s airport with very little energy. There I met my teachers who went with us to the trip and my
schoolmates.
We took our
first flight in destiny Amsterdam at 6 o’clock am.
When we
were going there, Gerard fell asleep when everybody on the plane was sitting in
their seat. When it had just gone up into the sky, he started to do strange
movements and it was really funny.
We arrived
at Schipol’s airport at 8:00 am. We had to be there for 4 hours more or less,
we ate something and we played with some cards.
When it was
time, we went to the plane that was going to transport us to Chicago. While we
were going to the U.S, I watched four films, in English. Every one!
At 5:30 we
landed in Chicago’s airport. We waited for the bus and we went to the school.
There, I
met my partner for first time. She
picked me up and we went to her car. We moved to her home, that was 5 minutes
by car from the school.
When I was
there I met her family, and they were really nice.
Then I went
to my bedroom, and I fell asleep because of the jet lack.
In those
days, I visited the most important monuments in Chicago. I visited like
Downtown, the Millennium Park, Sky deck tower, the city hall, the sculptures
and the Picasso monument.
Also, we
saw the Mexican neighborhood, where we went to the museum and ate some churros.
Then we went to Chinatown to see the culture. We ate lunch and bought some souvenirs
for our families.
The best
thing I did was go to the Chicago Bulls game against the Miami Heat. I’m a very
big fan of the NBA and it was a dream come true.
I have
enjoyed this trip, I learned how to have a conversation in English with my
partner, their friends and family. I also learned some of the American culture.
Now I have
to take care of Jade (my partner) and hope that she will have a great
experience here in Barcelona.
