   We arrived at Bethel university and took a home room in the class. After that we took a college bus and went to the mall of America! Mall of America is a very big shopping mall and there are church,  amusement park, aquarium and hotel and so on. It is the most biggest shopping mall in America.

 

   At first we went to the amusement park, but we didn't know how to take attractions. So we gave up riding on them and went to clothing store. I was surprised that the clerk wore a perfume to clothes for sale. I wanted to buy clothes but I couldn't find good cloth.  I wanted to buy souvenir for my family amd friends, so I bought good fragrance soaps for my family. They were little expensive for me. And I went to the Minnesooota(?) which is souvenir shop of Minnesota, and I bought two cups, 12 pens and magnet for my family and friends. I like baseball, so I wanted to buy something to goods of Twins. I went to the Twins shop, the  shop held a sale at the moment. So I could buy a Twins parka and the uniform at a 30% discount! I was lucky!!!


   Lunch time, we wanted to eat Japanese foods, so we went to "Little Tokyo" which is Japanese restaurant. But I think it was Chinese retaurant! There restaurant's seasoning was Chinese food, so we were disappointed. And after lunch, I wanted to drink tea, so I went to the tea shop and I ordered green tea. But the taste was very very bud! Because it was too sweet for me.  I thought that shopping is very fun but it need stamina. I was very tired.


   At 15:15, we left mall of America and back home! Tonight dinner was drilled chiken and a lot of fruits! They were very healthy and very good!
