Food on Christmas Day
I went with Heather and her family to a cabin in west/northern Wisconsin. We went skiing, snowmobiling, played games and watched movies :)
I cut and colored my hair
Penny took some photos of me in the snow
I went shopping with money I got from my parents and grandfather for Christmas
Last Friday I went skiing in Sunburst with school. It was so much fun!
World of Coca Cola
When I was in Atlanta I also went to The World of Coca Cola. The museum was really cool and very well made. It was partly a guided tour and partly you could go around yourself. At the end everyone could try all the products that Coca Cola makes in different countries all over the world. It was about 60 different sodas. I wanted to try them all but at the end I had enought of soda. The best sodas were suprisingly from Asia. My favorite soda there was "Smart" and I think it was from China. The most disgusting sodas were from Italy, UK and Root Bear from America.

Georgia Aquarium
On Friday my host mom Penny and I flew to Atlanta in Georgia. We are staing with Penny's daughter Tara, her husband and their two children. They also have a huge dog named Reggie.

On Saturday we went to the Georgia aquarium. The Georgia aquarium is the biggest aquarium in the whole world. The aquarium has more than 30 million liter water, 100 000 animals and 500 different species of animals. It was a very cool experience :) I got to pet Rays and sea starts. I saw a dolphin show which was very cool.

Lake Michigan
Now my first week in school is over. :) It was a lot to take in but it was okay. The lesson that I enjoy the most is PE, I think. I have PE every day which is so different from Sweden where I had it once a week. This week we played Soft Ball and Golf. I'm so bad at both, but it was so much fun anyway. I also had a short private lesson with the choir teacher. I will have those once every second week. I just had to sing some scales for her.
On Friday Penny bought Macaroni and Cheese, because I really wanted to try. I think it's a thing you have to try if you are in America and I liked it. Some days ago I also tried Root Beer which is an American soda. I thought it tasted like the toothpaste I usually use so I couldn't drink it because it felt like I was drinking toothpaste
And this is me and Dolly. I usually call her sneezer because she always sneezes in my face. She sometimes joins me when I eat breakfast.

Today Penny, Bob and I went to Manitowoc. First we went to a Harley Daivdson motorcycle shop. After that we went to the beach on Lake Michigan. It was really nice and Penny took some photos of me :)
My journey has begun...
On Tuesday evening Penny, Bob, their friends and I went on a motorcycle ride for about 30min to "Three men and a Pizza Pie" which is a pizza restaurant. Going on a motorcycle is really fun and the pizza was really good :) I saw 7 dead racoons on the way there, and 3 wild turkeys ran over the road in front of the motorcycle. The view from the motorcycle was so pretty. In the area that I live in there are corn fields and farms everywhere.

hahaha ;)
In school everything is fine. A lot of the students introduce themselves to me, which is nice. I talk a lot to the other exchage student in my school. Her name is Veera and she is from Finland. She is really nice and I'm so happy that I have someone that experiences the same thing as I to talk to.
I changed my Chemistry class to Study Hall because the chemistry course they are doing I already know, and I couldn't choose harder chemistry (it didn't work with my schedule). I'm happy though because I can do some homework during Study Hall. I get a lot of homework. I have to do a lot of Algebra and Biology everyday.
Yesterday Penny and I went to Appelton to fix my phone. Now I have a new numer and my old numer doesn't work. I also have 250min outgonig calls to Poland or Sweden which means that I can call my friends and family :) On our way home we drove by Lake Winnebago. The sunset was so beautiful!
My name is Aleks and I'm 17 years old.
