Favorite Experience in America

One of my favorite experiences in America is visiting Las Vegas by car with my friends. On the freeway to Las Vegas we got a flat tire unfortunately. In fact, that was the first time to get flat tire, so there was nothing to laugh at and I was very anxious. We exchanged spoiled tire with a spare tire to go to a gas station. Fortunately it could endure running to a gas station. We ordered a new tire and waited for about two hours. Then, we got ready finally. At that time, I thought I was sorry about bad start for my friends I invited. After that we got to Las Vegas without any troubles. Then, we enjoyed luxurious time in Las Vegas. Although it was one of the most terrible memories, it is also impressive memory in a sense. I don’t want to make that kind of memory again, though. Now I’d like to apologize and say thank you to my friends. I could reconfirm I have good friends through that trip.

              The weather in California is very different from that of Kyoto. It is much drier than in Kyoto. Here is a good example to understand the difference between the weather of California and weather of Kyoto. It rained just several times in six months in California. In Kyoto we can see the rain many times especially in June. It means Kyoto is more humid than in California. This weather is terrible in summer. It is not only hot but also humid; on the other hand, California is just hot, so for instance, I can feel cool when I go under the tree in summer. I prefer California weather to that of Kyoto.
