Wow today this trip is reality
I have only sleep 15 minutes since we leave Billund airport and I still awake, but my eyelids are heavy. I sad near the window in the airplane, which result in that I have a beautiful view over the sea and the mountains. Everybody was happy and excited to visit Seattle and their host families.
When I got the stamp in my passport and the man behind the counter said: "Welcome to America". I thought wow - now I´m in USA for the first time in my life and I´m going to stay here for two months. We waited for our suitcases. The dog, which was running around, could smell something in my handbag. It means that the policewoman checked my handbag and found rye loaf (in danish: rugbrød) with meatballs. She wrote at a blue slip of paper this result in that men in the security had to check my suitcase and handbag and weighted the meatballs. You are not allowed to bring any kind of food to USA if you haven´t document it. I got off with a warning and an unforgettable memory about the first 10 minutes in Seattle.
We had to wait 30 minutes in the airport, because the bus, which should have picked us up, was broken. The spirit was still great and most of the students brought coffee or smoothie at Starbuck. When we arrived with a new bus to Edmonds our host families stood there. I was so excited to meeting Pam. Pam is a open-minded and sweet woman. She drove me around the area (to the beach, the mall etc.). I live also with a student from Japan (I will tell more about her later, when I have speak with her). The first dinner is real American. We eat at a restaurant with burgers, fries, soup, wraps etc. I order a classic burger with fries. I taste very good, but I have to take a doggy bag, because the burger is so large and there is so many fries.
The first day in Seattle has been full of influence and experience
My eyelids are so heavy. I looking forward to sleep!
