July 4 is the Independence Day. We had breakfast in a hall of residence for students with hamburgers and scrambled eggs and some juice or milk. After having breakfast we travelled to Fort Wayne. There we attended Mass in a big house with a pond. We had lunch and in the afternoon we played volleyball and some people swam in the pond. In the evening the Spanish people returned to different houses with their families. Next day we stayed with our families. On Tuesday after 9.00 a.m. Mass we had some classes or activities to learn English like Power Point presentations, conversations, grammar, movies or some games. After that at two o’clock we had lunch and after having lunch we played basketball or foosball. At three o'clock the families came to the church to pick up the Spanish boys. In the afternoon the Spanish boys did some activities with their families. For example, one day I came to the church because there was a meeting for teenagers. Another day I went to the taxi cinema to see two movies, TOY STORY 3 and ECLIPSE. On Thursday all the class went to visit Pablo Mideros’ business. It consists in pumps for gas stations. Another day I went to one house to look after one dog, because the family was in Chicago. On Friday I had a party in my house and my father set a fire in the garden. Many friends of my brothers and sisters came and I met many people and we had a very good time. In the weekend I played some computers games and I played football and volleyball, Then in the afternoon I went to see a baseball game in the downtown with Alberto. When the game finished theare were fireworks and they threw some soft balls to the people and then I returned home.

There i went tubing, jet ski, swimming… One day came the Snowball’s with Mark’s family and other day came some friends with the teachers and the priest.
