The United States of America

Dear Diary

The trip to USA, California was awfully long, and I’m not looking forward to my return trip to Norway. It’s a good thing I’m staying here a while though, so that I may forget a bit about the boring journey, and maybe develop a bit of homesickness. However, since I spent that much time on the plane, I had to find something to do, so I looked at a couple of advertizes about California, to cheer me up and to prepare myself for what I should expect in the large state. Here is what one of them said:

“Who doesn’t want to go to California? It is a sunny and beautiful state and surfing on the beautiful beaches is only one of many funny and wonderful things to do. Not only is there entertaining, there is plenty of education too! You can visit historical events and go sightseeing in many of the biggest cities in the USA. Los Angeles, San Diego, San Jose and San Francisco among others are really worth visiting, and if you want you can go to the hometown of movie producing and popular culture, Hollywood. Zac Efron, Vanessa Hudgens, Tom Hanks, Marilyn Monroe, Cameron Diaz, Tiger Woods and Leonardo DiCaprio are only a few of many famous persons growing up in Los Angeles. And who knows? If you get lucky, you might get to see them during your time there.”

This really got me excited. And I especially hope that I will meet some famous persons during my stay. I am now situated in L.A. at a beautiful and exclusive hotel named Four Seasons Los Angeles. Since all the luxury makes it very expensive, I’ll have to find somewhere else to sleep soon. But for now I’ll just relax and enjoy the rest of my evening, and think of what I can do tomorrow. I’ll keep you updated.

 This is the American flag "Stars and Stripes." It consists of 13 stripes, one for each  original 13 colonies that rebelled against the British monarchy and became the first states in the union. The 50 stars represent the 50 states in USA today.
