Taste of the states

We arrived here in America after a few delays and trouble in customs happy but very tired. It was a very long journey! Something i have never really experienced so far. We got here after 23 hours of traveling for me with very little sleep. We got to try a traditional american meal of wendys. Along the road trip Kathy and I discovered the joys of "Wheat thins" a kind of healty  junk food as Anna put it. I am sure i willl be bringing some home! The first day we spent helping the camp leaders to prepare for the coming American kids. We got on real well with the Turkish kids already here. With some good life friends made! When we arrived it was unbelievably hot and humid but its got better now and could even be classed as too cold for shorts. Our American friends say if you don't like the weather in Vermont wait 30 mins and it changes and believe me dose. The talks are unbelievable and we are learning lots. Thanks to EIL for making this possible write back soon
