Hola from Mexico!


Spring break is over and that means 3rd trimester starts….
 
It is so sad that we could only get flights from Monday to Monday… because I missed the one day of school. My classes this tri are

International Relations
US History
Photo video
Youth Issues
English

I am pretty excited to start my last Trimester at a American High school, but I am also very sad, because that means my adventure is almost over.

Anyways Mexico was so much fun! I was so glad to get out of the snow and to finally have over 10 °C. In Minneapolis there is still a lot of snow, so I was so ready to see the sun again. 

Busy beach in cabo san lucas
The flight from Minneapolis to Cabo San Lucas takes like 3.30-4 h so not as bad as the flight over to America. Mexico is in the same time zone as California so we won 2 hours. We arrived in Cabo San Lucas and you got out of the plane and it was perfect J Here were like 27-31 °C so perfect for me! After a 45 min drive to the hotel, we got our swimsuits out of the suitcase and went right to the beach. By the way I used the suitcase I had for 1 year for 1 week, just in case it gets cold…or I need more than 3 t-shirts a day.

on a dinner cruise
In the evening we often went downtown to eat something and I LOVE MEXICAN FOOD!!! Throughout the week we went paddle boarding twice, swan in the ocean, went on a dinner cruise and we relaxed and tanned a lot. Paddle boarding is like paddling but you stand/squat/sit/lay on a big surfboard. It is a lot of fun, but it sucks when the wind is blowing the wrong direction. 

Lying at the beach is always fun and the water was pretty cold but nice to cool down. Cabo San lucas has one coast to the pacific but the waves are too high, so I couldn´t go in there to actually swim, but I can say my feet and my butt where in the pacific and not a lot of you guys can say that!

What is a vacation without a burned body? I almost made it through the whole week without a burned part, but I thought that would be boring, so I burned the last day, while we were in the pool. Now I am sitting in the plane and hope that we don’t crash….

I also hope that they let me back in the United States….. I send my visa and everything to YFU and they send it to the government and it shouldn´t be a problem but who knows…? At the airport in Mexico they wanted to see special forms and something we filled out in the internet and we didn´t do all of it…., but they let me on the plane so it shouldn’t be a problem. 

I also hope that we are able to arrive at the airport in Minneapolis, because we were suppose to get another 4-7 inches of snow and a bad wind.
 
Anyways when I post that on my blog than you know that I am home and not frozen….

I will go to bed now because it was a long and busy day for me and I need to wake up early again 

Good night guys
Love you all

Alex
