Weekends



Feb. 15th (Sun)
   It was the first day I spent with my host family.   Marianne, Adam and I went to IKEA.  We have IKEA in Japan too, but I have never been there.  IKEA had many kinds of furniture.
   When we came home, I met Jeremy and Lauren for the first time.  They were kind and interesting.  We watched, the movie  "Big Hero 6."  I had never watched it.  We watched it with English sound and English subtitles, so it was very difficult for me.  I  could barely understand the story, but the ending was very amazing and moving , so I cried.
   The dinner was Hawaiian pizza that day.  I ate it for the first time, and it was delicious.  It became my favorite food.




Feb. 21st (Sat)
   We didn't have any breakfast at home, and we went to a cafe.  I ate turkey sandwich.  It was a half size, but it was enough size for me.  It was delicious.
  After that, we went to TARGET and Tacoma Mall to buy souvenirsMarianne recommended me some shops to go and things to buy.  Thanks to her, I bought good souvenirs.
  We ate the meat dish which Adam made for dinner.  It was delicious.  Adam is really good at cooking.  I liked the dishes which Adam made.
   In the evening, Lauren, Marianne and I watched horror movies.  We watched a movie and two short films, and I thought that the Japanese movie was the scariest of all. 

Turkey Sandwich



Feb. 22nd (Sun)
   Adam, Marianne and I got on a ferry .  I saw some beautiful view, so I felt good.   I got the whole view of  downtown Seattle.  I got on the ferry for the first time, and it became a really good memory of mine. 
   I made oyakodon and miso soup for dinner.  Adam and Marianne said, "It's delicious."  I was glad to hear that.  Adam and Marianne also liked Japanese rice.  I was glad that I'd brought it over from Japan.

We got on a ferry.

Oyakodon and Miso Soup





Feb. 28th (Sat)

   Adam, Marianne, Lauren, Jeremy and I went to the  aquarium and the zoo in Tacoma City .  The aquarium had big sharks.  I had never watched one.  I was excited because I like sharks.  I also watched the teeth of a fossil megalodon.  I had wanted to watch it for years, so I was lucky.  I watched a picture of a megalodon too.  It looked more powerful than in real life.  We also watched many kinds of sea animals.  They were cute.  In the zoo, we watched elephants, tigers, buffaloes and so on.  I had told Adam and Marianne that I wanted to go to the aquarium, so I really enjoyed the visit.

BIG!!

Mar. 1st (Sun)
   In the morning, Adam and I watched the movie "Kiki' Delivery Service."  I had known the story, so we watched the movie with English sound and English subtitles, but I sometimes got confused.  It was Adam's mother's birthday that day.  Adam's family, Marianne and I went to the restaurant called Crab Pot.  I had known the restaurant, but I was still surprised when a clerk scattered boiled sea food on the table.  I enjoyed eating there.
   In the afternoon, Adam, Marianne and I went to downtown Seattle, and went up Space Needle.  Space Needle was high, so I enjoyed seeing the beautiful view of Seattle from the top.
   In the evening, we went to Adam's parents's home.  Adam's family greeted me very warmly whenever I went there.  They were very kind, and I tought they were a great familyMany thanks for your kindness.

I was surprised.
