USA

So finally the day came where we would have to leave Denmark, and go to the USA, and renunite with our friends. I know Christine was very excited, and so was Søren and I.
After arriving in O'Hare airport, we took a cab to our hotel, where Julie, Bryan and Zoe was waiting. It was a big moment seeing them again after 2 1/2 years. I was really surprised to see these little two girls almost throwing themselves into eachothers arms. As if they had never been apart. Amazing!
The next day (Friday) we went to the American girl store and did some shopping, and we went to Navy Pier, where we went to the childrens museum, and to build a bear.
Saturday came and we had to go pick up our car and leave Chicago to drive to Mediapolis. We got a nice car, and left Chicago. The drive was fine, and we were all excited to see Debbie and Brad who we stopped by first. I don't know how to describe the feelings going through my head driving into Mediapolis, this small town that I loved so much living in, and down all the familiar small streets to Debbie and Brads house, pulling up their driveway, again seeing Christine rushing out of the car just to run into Debbies arms.
I can only say that this is such an amazing feeling, and though a little sad knowing we have to leave again. But we enjoy every minute of it.
Well after some time at Debbie and Brads house, we went to Tricias so she could help us get settled in her parents basement, another rush of feelings, happiness and excitement, and the feeling that it was only a week ago we were here last.
On request from Christine we went with Debbie and Brad to Olde World, our little local cafe, for supper.
So, so far this has been an amazing experience.
Today Christine will go riding, and tonight I'm going with Debbie to fusion fitness, to try to burn some of all these calories that I have already consumed :)

Oh and totally forgot: Christine's english is returning so fast :)
