Welcome to the States!

Our journey began with an one hour flight from Bremen to Amsterdam. Although the flight was delayed, we luckily didn‘t miss our connecting flight to Minneapolis, where we finally landed even a bit ahead of schedule. Also we got many and very tasty meals on board. After many security checks we could finally leave the airport in Minneapolis! All of us wearing winter clothes were very surprised about the 90 fahrenheit in Minneapolis.
Our bus driver took us then from the airport to the „Mall of America“ which is one of the most famous shopping malls in the world. The majority of us felt kind of lost in it though because of all the floors and countless shops.
At 7:30 pm we went to a Motel where we spend the night.
The next morning we went to the „Minneapolis Sculpture Garden“ which was interesting. Our next stop was at the „Foshay Tower“ where we had a nice view over the whole town. It was amazing. Then we went to the „Mill City Museum“ which is built into the ruins of what was once the world‘s largest flour mill. We got information about it while sitting in a large elevator which took us to different floors, where different situations of the history were presented. After that our bus driver wanted to take us to the waterfalls but unfortunately she dropped us off at the wrong place. It turned into an exciting adventure though, whilst discovering the place, walking up many stairs, but then finally arrived at a cute little beach.
After another 2 hours bus drived we arrived very excited in St. Ansgar and half an hour later we finally made it to Charles City where we met our host families.
