Compared to the village I come from New York was an entire new world. I had been to London on a few occasions, but that was nothing compared to New York. It was huge and so lively!

But he was okay and he drove me to my hotel. I had a room in the Amsterdam Inn, a small and cosy hotel. The people very helpful and gave a few goods tips as to where I could go for supper or go sightseeing. The girl behind the desk showed me to my room. It wasn't very big, but big enough for me.

It was a small pizza place, but packed with people. Luckily I was alone and could immediately sit down. I asked for the menu and looked in it. The first thing I noticed was the "alligator pear" in the salad. I had

Before we decided to head off we had to make a list of things we were both going to examine upon entering the restaurants and when trying the
When we finally arrived at her house, she had a suitcase, a bag for the back seat, and three blankets. That night we stayed up until two in the morning because one we were really anxious and two we wanted to be able to sleep for the long car ride. That morning we woke up at 5:00 a.m., jumped out of bed, brushed our teeth and hair.
We woke up at 5:30am, we ate breakfast down in the lobby, and drove to the airport. When we got there it was

Once upon a time there was an American man named Jerry Mulligan who lived in Paris. When he was discharged from the army he decided to become a painter and continue to live in Paris so he could just paint and study art. Paris is a place that a painter or artist is inspired. This is why Jerry loves it so much. Jerry lives 2 floors above a café in a little cramped apartment. But he is not complaining, he is lighthearted and fun. Jerry is popular with the children on the block because he gives them American Bubble Gum. Adam Cook is one of Jerry's very good friends in Paris. He is currently unemployed and keeps winning scholarships to stay overseas. Though, he is not doing much with any of them.
