Soon it´s Thanksgiving over here, and we are afraid they want us for dinner!! The teachers and the Principal fill us with food all the time. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner! All for free!! Jesus, we would roll home to Sweden if that was possible!!!
We had a funny incident at the gas station, after having a dinner with some teachers from our school. At first we didn´t know how to open up the lid, so we went inside to get some help. The guy at the gas station went out. Suddenly the lid opened and then we didn´t know what type of gas we needed. The guy at the gas station asked for how many dollars or gallons we wanted. There we stood looking like two question marks. Well, we said, 20!!? Now, the gas station guy looked like a question mark!! 20 gallons!!?? When we then filled it up, we only needed eight gallons (and we would´t had got an ounce more of gas in the tank!!).
Then the gas station guy asked:
- Where are you from?
- Sweden, we said.
-...oh, he said,...Europe...!! Then three of the employees at the gas station started to discuss lively at some Indian language, looking strange toward us! Well, that´s what it´s like, being from Spain! (read our blog from the other day). Actually, we asked some spanishspeaking students at school what fish is in Spanish. Now we know!! It´s pescada!!!! So, we´re not only learning English, we also learn Spanish!!!!
