March in Emporia

Today it was really beautiful and warm day  here and it made us smile. It was +25 celsius and tomorrow they promised +27 celsius so it feels like summer here. Because of this we decided to go to the park right next to us immediately after school. There were families playing and spending quality time with each other while we tried to take a little bit sun while reading. I continued this Nicholas Sparks - The lucky one which seems pretty good so far.

Hoover Dam - on our way to Las Vegas

From Flaggstaff we headed to Las Vegas which took about four hours to drive there. But just on the border of Nevada is this really famous Hoover Dam that we wanted to see, so we did a quick stop there. Whole trip to Las Vegas was really beautiful and warm, so all of us were repeating sentences like: "omg this is so awesome", "im so happy right now", "Finland is so boring" and etc.. being in US felt so right and good.

Breathtaking Grand Canyon

Our first stop was Flagstaff in Arizona, and I think i don't need to say why. Grand Canyon was so beautiful and incredible place. I have seen pictures before and I knew what to expect, but omg, it was more than i had imagined. There were many places where you got different views, and I recommend if you gonna go there someday you should go see at least two or three different views.

After Grand Canyon we went to eat and shop a little bit but we were quite tired after driving so we wanted to go sleep early. In the morning we start to drive to Las Vegas but on our way we wanted to stop and see famous Hoover Dam.

p.s. whole Arizona looked really beautiful

Let's go!!

Our trip started on tuesday two weeks ago but everything didn't go like we had planned. In the morning we had an exam buttt of course we slept over (you can only imagine how nice it was to go and see the professor and say "sorry we don't know what happened but we slept over" and see how he was thinking "yea right" ). However, we returned our homeworks and headed to other class. We needed to return some homeworks to that class also but of course i wasn't able to find my homeworks for that class from my computer ("This can't be true, not now"). Well luckily i found other one from weird location but other one is still lost. Well after this class it was time to go home and pick our stuff and leave, finally. We walked tired to our car (because we had done various homeworks last night because we had many deadlines during our trip) and drove back home. Everything looked to be fine untillllll we saw that we had a parking ticket on our window, GREAT! Haha, we really needed a break from school.

It was about 3:30pm when we started to drive from Emporia to Flagstaff, Arizona. Out first destination was to go and see Grand Canyon. It took 16 hours to drive there but it wasn't that bad because we had four drivers and we had waited this trip for so long.

On the road

Huhhuh mikä reissu on ollu ja on edelleen (Tuomas lähti friscosta ajelee chigagoon, joten ollaan marian kanssa nyt vaan kahdestaan). Ollaan nähty enemmän ku uskottiin ja kuvattu ihan liikaa, et ekaa kertaa elämässää kameran ottaminen kuvaamista varten tuntuu raskaalta (uskokaa tai älkää)! Ollaan kokoajan menty ja tehty, joten aikaa ei oo ollu ku korkeintaa deletoida ja vähän muokata kuvia. Nyt istutaan kuitenki noin kolme tunti junassa matkalla Seattleen Portlandista, joten koitan jos muutaman päivityksen sais kirjotettuu. Alla on kuva meidän reissusta.

We have had a fantastic journey which still continues from Portland to Seattle. We have seen so much awesome things and for the first time taking pictures feels heavy (believe it or not). We have done different kind of things all the time and we have way too many pictures from this roadtrip and it is hard to choose which ones i wanna show you. Like I said we are heading to Seattle by train so we have about three hours time so i try my best and update this blog a little bit. Here is picture were we have been.

Chicago

Over one week ago i was watching "The Vow" with my friends and we all loved it. I really like both of those main actors and there were also really beautiful scenes from Chicago. And just after one week i got the opportunity to see some of those places:

Our weekend in Chicago was sooo perfect! We all fell in love to Chicago, and oh my how much there was things were to take pictures from. It was a paradise for me and Maria. I definitely can recommend going to Chicago if you get a chance because for me at least it was a huge positive surprise.

P.S. Today we came to Flagstaff, Arizona and went to see Grand Canyon. It was so beautiful and we got a lot of great pictures

O.P.I nail polish

Ostin hetki sitten pari O.P.In lakkaa ja tiedätte varmaan niiden maksavan Suomessa noin 15-17 euroa (jos oikein muistan eli aikas paljon). Niitä en oo siis suomes hamstrannut, mutta tääl se on erittäin erittäin mahdollista sillä ostin noi kaks lakkaa 13,5 dollarilla eli noin 10 eurolla. Tääl saa kyl kaikki niin paljon halvemmalla, et tuntuu et rahaa ei kulu melkee yhtään vaikka ostaa tuotteita, joihin normaalisti menisi paljon enemmän. Täällä siis ihana shoppailla ja vararikko ei tuu nii nopeesti vastaan kun Suomes. 

Nyt on ollu niin kiire kaikkien koulujuttujen kanssa, että huhhuh. Deadline deadlinen perään, esitelmä ja tenttejä. Huomenna onneksi helpottaa sillä.... me lähdetään CHICAGOOON!!! jaiks en malta odottaa aamuun. Edessä on ekaks 8 tuntii ajoa, mutta ei haittaa sillä saatiin myös George lähtemään messiin eli hyvä porukka kasassa, jee.

I bought couple new nail polishes from O.P.I. Those nail polishes are more than half cheaper here so im sure these two are not gonna be the only ones. Here shopping is so much nicer than in Finland because i save money a lot in here, and haha i like that.

I have had so much homeworks to do this week and that is why im so tired. But it don't really matter now because..... tomorrow we are leaving to CHICAGOO!! can't wait. George is also coming with us so it gonna be even funnier.
