California[2.13--19.2010]

学校の真冬休みにホストファミリーとホストファザーのお兄さんとお兄さんの奥さんに会うためにカリフォルニアにあるパームデザート(PALM DERT)に行きました。とても暖かいところで、夏のような暖かさに私たちみんなとても喜んでいました。パームデザートはたくさんの木や花がありました。グレープフルーツの木を見つけ、もぎ取り食べました。甘くてとても美味しかったです。今まで見たことのないくらいたくさんのヤシの木を見ることができ、とても楽しかったです。ホストマザーと公園に行ったときには、なかなか見ることのできない鳥であるミチバシリ(写真を載せています。)やウサギやたくさんのアヒルを見つけました。そこは素敵な大きな公園で、とても楽しみました。てっぺんに雪が積もっている大きな山があったり、滞在している間毎日いい天気でどこを見渡しても素敵な景色を見ることができました。ホストファザーのお兄さんも奥さんもとても親切にしてくださり、今まで行った中で一番素晴らしい旅行の１つになりました。
I went to PALM DESERT, California to see my host father's brother and his wife with my host parents for the school's midwinter break. It was very warm down there, We were so glad to get the warm which was like summer. There were many kind of trees and flowers. We found some grapefruits' trees, we picked up some grapefruits and ate them. Those were sweet and very good. We saw lots of palm trees there. I have never seen such a lots of palm trees before. I enjoyed seeing those very much. One day of the trip I went to the park with my host mother. We found a road runner, which is a rare bird, a rabbit and lots of ducks. It was a nice and big park. I enjoyed it so much. There were beautiful views everywhere I could see in the place we went to, because of some huge mountains whose tops were covered with snow, and a nice weather every day we stayed. My host father's brother and his wife were really kind to me, it was one of the most wonderful trips I have ever been.
