Marshmellow-Fluff

What a day!!

I had what was definitely one of the best days here in the States so far!
First I went to the Ides, which is always a lot of fun! We talked, listened to music, looked through exchange students and laughed - a lot!

Then we went to Dunkin Donuts, cause Maddi needed to get her coffee! Here we meet Vinny ''the Dunkin Dude!''




Me and Vinny!




Me, Faith, Kayla and Maddi at Dunkin D's!







This was my first visit at Dunkin Donuts, it was a lot of fun! I had a ''small ice-coffee with regular cream and extra hazelnut'' - ordering coffee at DD is complicated!
After we came back to the house, we got lunch ready! Kayla had planned a picnic, so the girls made some wraps with chicken-salad, packed them, and then we took of.
We went to the Duck-pond at Bates to have lunch, and after that -on our way back home- we went to the church. There was a piano in there, no need to say that I had to play! It was a little rusty though, since i haven't played for real for about a month!

When we got back Maddi had to go, so while Kayla was going through my Ipod, Faith and I watched Glee, and then all of the sudden, Gayle was there to pick me up!

She took me to Tammi's camp, where Tammi and half of her kids were - Alexandra, Noah, Gabe, Wahiet, Gracie, Roselin and Matt.
They took me tubing, and it was some of the most fun I've had in a long time! I so wanna do that again!! Tammi promised I could, and I am so gonna keep her to that promise!

When we got in from tubing we had Raman Noodles and S'Mores, and that was just the perfect ending on a perfect day!




Ohh, and I totally forgot to tell you about the Marshmallow-Fluff! Haha
That's one of the weirdest things I've ever seen - Marshmallow on a jar! They use it on sandwiches... America is crazy!

Bates College and The Ides!

Today Gayle took me to Lewiston to spend time with her coworkers two daughters, Kayla and Faith, and I had so much fun! 
The girls were really friendly and open and we just talked and laughed for hours. After a quick lunch, we went for a walk, and Kayle and Faith showed me Bates campus. Bates is a huge college in Lewiston, and it's so beautiful!


We also went to the top of a hill, from where we had a great view over all of the city, it was awesome. When we got back, Gayle picked me up, and we went to the library, so that I could get me a library card!

After dinner Yulia, Gayle and I went to get ice-cream, it was good, but oh my gosh it was huge! (That's what she said!), and I barely couldn't eat it! Next time I'll only have a baby-size!
