Fluffy pancakes topped with maple syrup for breakfast, playing basketball in the driveway, and meeting up with friends from high school: sounds like a movie, right? Well, that's just what Sundays in the US really look like. Today was our second Sunday since arriving in beautiful New Hampshire, and I'm gonna take you through our day.
Because we got home late yesterday, my host and I started our Sunday by sleeping in. After getting up, the smell of pancakes greeted us, which made starting our day way easier. The pancakes were great, just like you would imagine American pancakes to be. Topped with fruit and maple syrup, those were probably some of the best pancakes I've ever had.
After a successful start to our day, I decided that I didn't want to waste any time, so we went outside and challenged each other to a game of basketball. Since I absolutely dominated the game at first and felt sorry for Logan (my host), I let him catch up—which didn't work out that well, because in the end, he beat me. After that, we went back inside because my host had to do some homework (yes, they have that over here too) and we wanted to grab a bite to eat before leaving.
Since it was not only a beautiful day but also my friend Leo's birthday (Happy Birthday, Leo!), some of my friends, their hosts, and I met at the house of Philip's host, Anthony. From there, we all went to a nearby mountain. The "hike" to the top took about 20 minutes, but once we reached it, we had some truly breathtaking views. However, we didn't have too much time, as soccer practice was scheduled for some of our hosts. So, we all decided to head back to Anthony's place. Once we arrived, we spent the rest of our day playing pool and FIFA in Anthony's basement.
It definitely was a great day, and I hope there are still lots of great days like this ahead of us!
