Bye bye to the city that never sleeps...

Blijf op de hoogte en volg Gabi

05 April 2014 | Verenigde Staten, Seattle

So we have just arrived at Seattle airport after 5 wonderful days in New York. I am a bit tired from standing up early and wandering around all day. But I am so glad I did that because now I have seen everything I wanted to see.

This is what we did in New York:
Monday: Time Square, Rockefeller, Central Park
Tuesday: 9/11 memorial, ferry to Liberty Island and Ellis Island, Soho
Wednesday: Manhattan Bridge, China Town, Brooklyn Bridge, Little Italy
Thursday: Wall Street, American Indian museum, America's Got Talent, Time Square by night.
Friday: fly to Seattle

Now you can imagine that I am a bit tired?!
(I think that is also because I was so amazed all the time.)

Now, in Seattle we are waiting for the bus, which brings us to Bellingham.
There our hostfamilies are waiting for us. I am really excited about them and how they live.

The flight from New York to Seattle went great! (but after the horrible flight from Amsterdam to New York, every flight is greater.)
It was a 5 hour flight but I sat by the window so I could look outside and sleep a little.

I am really looking forward to the next 3 weeks, but I do miss home a lot!
I just hope that these 3 weeks are really fun so the time will fly by.

I think this is enough update for now.
PS: I really liked the comments on my previous update, so please keep up the good work by letting me know what you think of my stories.

Bye Bye and lots of kisses from Seattle and Bellingham

Counting down the days!

For the people who are interested in my trip.
I am going on a school trip to the north of America from the 30th of March untill the 26th of April. Firstly, I am staying in New York City for 5 days. In this major city we are completely free, so we can do whatever we want to do. I would like to see as much as possible so I will make a kind of schedule of what I would like to see beforehand. After those 5 days we are going to Bellingham. Bellingham is a town nearby Seattle in the north-west of America. Here we will stay in a hostfamily for 3 weeks. During these 3 weeks we have a schedule of visiting universities, musea, etc. We will also go to Seattle and Vancouver to see the city. The main purpose of this trip is to get in touch with native speakers so we get to know the language better. On the 25th of April we will leave Bellingham and we will fly back home. On the 26th of April we will arrive at Schiphol and I hope I can say by then that I had a the trip I will never forget! (in a positive way)

I hope you will enjoy my blog and I will appreciate the messages I get.
