Autumn and Winter in Connecticut.

               When I moved from Texas to Connecticut, it was Autumn. I could see colorful trees all around the place that I hadn't seen before. My country doesn't have Autumn.  I reached to  my aunt and uncle's house who lived in Westport, CT. They have four kids, all of them younger than me. I met them and saw my cousins after a long time. They were glad after seeing me in Connecticut. We had dinner together.



              The next morning, I woke up my aunt said " Get ready for pictures, the weather is so gorgeous and colorful outside - let's capture of Autumn". I got ready to go out. She took my pictures with colorful trees and beautiful views and I loved it.



            My aunt cooked food for me which I liked. We had dinner together. We were sitting in the dining room and talking. My aunt asked " Do you want to see Manhattan NY". I replied quick" Yes!!! sure I would like to see because it was one of my dreams". She said " OK !  we will take you tomorrow ". I was so excited. I couldn't imagine I was going to see Manhattan that I always watched in the movies and heard from other people about it.

            Next day we were on the way to NY. In the route I saw scenic views which were so beautiful. By the time we arrived at Manhattan, It was getting dark, but there was a lot of lighting . I saw huge tall buildings. I started to feel pain in my neck because I kept looking at these huge buildings.Dozens of people were walking and there was a lot of traffic on the streets. It looked like one of the craziest cities. We were trying to find  parking over there. Finally, after 30 minutes we found a parking space which was close by Times Square. We walked towards Times Square stairs and looked at the view from the stairs. I saw a famous clock on the Tower.  I've never thought that I'd be in such a place until I got there. We visited some big stores like M & M's, Jurassic park and Hershey's. After visiting everyplace, we were starving  then we stopped at a famous GYRO place in Manhattan. It was so delicious. I really liked it. It was a wonderful trip for me. I was so glad.







            I was staying at my aunt's house. After a couple of weeks, one morning my aunt woke me up and said look outside. When I looked out it was so unbelievable. I rubbed my eyes twice then I saw the outside  which covered by a white layer and that was snow . I was feeling like I was in heaven because It was my first time I saw snow in my entire life. I was going so crazy. I went out without wearing a coat. Outside the temperature was damn cold then I ran back inside and put my jacket on.
I wore a hat, gloves and boots then I went out again. I was playing with my younger cousin in the snow. We were throwing the snow to each other and making snowballs. We made a snowman.
These were the craziest moments of my life. I never thought one day I would be seeing Autumn and Winter like this.
