Guess what the name of my new High School is...

Hey folks!

So...a couple of things happened in the last time and here are my reports.... ;)

Last week we visited the Henry-Ford-Museum in Greenfield Village. It was a great new experience and I had a lot of fun there.

Here are some pictures from a some cars, trains, ...

President Ronald Reagan's Car

President Dwight D. Eisenhower's Car

President John F. Kennedy's Car

President Franklin D. Roosevelt's Car

Theodor Roosevelt's Car

What is a Chevrolet doing in a Ford Museum?

There at the museum we also had lunch and I have eaten the biggest hotdog I have ever seen:

1 food long - 30.48cm

hey!

I hope you all had a nice winter-break. Mine was perfect.

We spend the main time of the holidays in Albany, NY with the family of my Damian. After a long ride we arrived in Albany and there our first task was to trim and decorate the Christmas-tree. Therefor the motto was: "All in white".

After the week we had to leave and so we went to the Niagara Falls and we spend one night there.
These Falls are really great. It was a pleasure to be there and to take some good pictures.

At the end we arrived safely in Ypsilanti. Early to bed and the next day was for unpacking the presents from Germany. --> Again, thx for that!!

Then it was New Years Eve, but that is a whole different thing how you celebrate it in the US and how you celebrate it in Germany. No fireworks, No lead pouring. But it was nice. We invited some friends and played some games.

Yesterday, I went with a new friend of mine and his dad skiing. It was a lot of fun!! I really enjoyed it.

So all in all I had great holidays and I am looking forward to the next ones.

I wish you all a merry Christmas and a happy New Year.

Hello, folks!

So, thanksgiving is long ago and in this time there happened a couple of things:

• Last week in our french class we had a pretty cool street-art project with sticky-notes.

•  Then we did have two swim meets. At both meets we got the second place. 

Thanksgiving...

Thank you America that you have such a awesome, great, and nice tradition. And thanks to my family for this big meal and the nice evening.
I will never forget how much food we had and how good it was. It was really funny yesterday and I hope it wasn't my last Thanksgiving.
Before we started to eat, Tarik told us about the first Thanksgiving and why we are celebrating this in America. Then was the time that everybody needs to say "Thanks" for something in the last year and what he wishes will happen in the next year...
Let's eat...

Unfortunately, I don't really remember all kinds of food we had, but let me try it:
-turkey (10.74 lb)
-stuffing
-corn
-carrots
-green beans
-vegetables (Brussels sprouts, cauliflower,  broccoli)
-cranberries
-bread
-quiche
-pumpkin pie, carrots cake,...
