This is my new venture. I'm going venture out of my country. I would like to live in America for almost three months. I need to improve my english skills. I know it will be difficult, but: NOTHING VENTURED, NOTHING GAINED. I'll write my experiences and feelings. In English of course, but I'll bracket in Spanish the new expresions and vocabulary that I'll learn every day.

I WOKE UP IN LANSDALE
I woke up hearing the birds. When I looked out through my room's windows I saw a very big squirel that was going up and down a tree... If you can't beleive watch the picture I took it.
I went for a walk to the Lansdale. I visit the Shopping Center and the Gym, both are huge. The Gym have even a swimming pool of three lanes. And the fares are cheap, 117 USD for 3 months, just 27 € a month. I have to sign up soon.
Later I went with Deb to the Grocery and with Doug to the Hardware. In the Hardware shop all the signs were in Spanish too. See a photo of one aisle (pasillo) in the grocery called FoodTown.

IN THE END, I GOT AMERICA
I've just arrived to the States, PA, Lansdale. After a long journey, I spent more than one hour with the Inmigration and Borde Police. He wanted to know why I'm going to stay in their country for so 84 days. I answered: "Well, that is a good question, my wife asked my countless times, and I didn't know what to answer ... but I'm going to make an effort to answer you...."
I could tell he didn't like my answer, then he asked me more and more questions .... in the end they called Jake (Scott's son) and Thank God, Jake solved the situation and I went out fron PHL Int. Airport.

Jake is charming (encantador), we were speaking all the time that it take us to get Lansdale. He explaind to me a lot of interesting thing. He´s biologist, and he worked 4 years in a drug company testing diferents drugs (medicamentos) in animals, previously to test them in humans. Then we got to F's House.
Is the right in the picture. The family are Doug, Deb and Joan (the daugther). All of them are charming. We went to a neigborg's house to attend a meeting with one of the democratic candidate to PA Governor. I understood more or less the talk,more tha 70%. Perhaps, politicians say the same things in all the world in diferent languages. After that we got home. Tomorrow will be another day, another american day. Amazing¡¡
