I did it!!!


I am going to try to recollect my story of my 25 mile bike ride yesterday in 2 hours but, I'm not sure if I will get through it because of ...
1. the exhaustion of the fact that I rode a bicycle for 2 (plus some) hours yesterday
2. I rode the above mentioned bicycle for a total of 38 kilometers
3. I went to school today for 7 hours
4. My butt hurts



But seriously though, I biked 25 miles in 2 hours. I have the need to say it again...

I BIKED 25 MILES IN 2 HOURS!!!!!!

It actually wasn't that bad in reality. Up until the last 5 miles, it was completely flat. I hung out with Pauline almost all day long. She is really cute. I am looking forward to hanging out with her more. We talked a lot during the ride. After the bike ride, (where we were at the front the entire time!!) We just cam eback to the house and chilled. We had a potluck type of thing. It was great. Everyone from our local Rotary club was there (I was the only exchange student). Pauline and I went upstairs at one point of the dinner to look at an amazing package that one special lady sent to me from the States with a bunch of Halloween things in it. The hardest part was climbing the stairs, it was going back down!!! We played fooseball and the wii. It was great. I love spending time with the Rotarians. They are all crazy and nice and lovely to be around.

In the beginning of the ride, the funniest thing happenned. Denis's (my host dad) bike tire exploded. It doesnt really sound that funny but, at the time, it was hilarious. I couldn't stop laughing.

Here are some photos of my extravaganza...

Ciao.
