Time limited, so we had to take a quick look and buy things at first sight!!
Bread,cheese,hamberger,banana,pork,meat,milk yogurt and so on....American Style~~
When in USA, just live like an American.

Sadly, we have just found the clothes ,bags we bought this evening were mostly printed "MADE IN CHINA"!!!

The two lectures that we took today have given me a brief introduction of American History. From Columbus to Jamestown , from Mayflower to exploration , from settlement to revolution, the lessons are amazing and the teachers are nice.

Hopelly go there again soon~~

@@@Virginia is for lovers^_^

On our bus trip, u see see such banner everuwhere in the town "Virginia is for lovers".
Luckily i got a key ring as a souvenir of Virginia. It also writes the same words.

I cant agree more.
Especially after the trip to the VA BEACH!

The scenery there is sososo beautiful.
SMELL --- the sea breeze
FELL --- the smooth sand
TASTE --- the salty water
and watch the sea bird run riot...

The life there is very comfortable. You can lie on the sand beach, just enjoying the sun bathe....

Colonial Williamsburg

In Williamsburg, I really find myself on a movie set!
SEEMS that i suddenly fell into some old movie scenes.

The Coffeehouse Backyard, the Milliner & Tailor, the Printing Office & Post Office, the Shoemaker, the Blacksmith Shop and so on...

Step into every house, listening to the explaination of usage of everything, it is just so fantastic!

The US people protect the history in a very special way . Recur !
History is not boring as we expected. Actually, it can be vivid!!

Busch Garden

After a long bus trip which departed from the GRC, we arrived the Busch Garden, which we were looking forward to for a really long time.
Through the bus window, we were already able to see many exciting things.

Much more than we expect, the Garden combine the natural beauty and the high technology.

DarkKastle: The high tech made the things(also danger there) so realistic. Plus the strong air condition there also made us feel more frighted.

The Big Bad Wolf: From afar, the Big Bad Wolf wriggled across the road. After a long long line, we finally got on it. The speed make us funky.

Besides, the Alpengeist, Apollo's Chariot, and so on gave us a really unforgetable experience!

PAPER is coming

AGAIN~
Headache again!

Though the liabrary here is very convenient, and the liabrarian is very very nice, have a paper to write is not easy job at all!!

Anyway, i will try my best to finish the work!
Though my major is LAW, i decide to write something on the intl relations.
Law and Politics are close related. To some extent, law can be regarded as a tool serve for the politics. What's more? The law or to say rules establish by the governments cant be put into practice without the governmengts' force.

Back from Monticello

Thomas Jefferson was a GENIUS.

As the third president of the United States, he was more than a Politician. He designed and planed the University of Virginia, and he built his own private library, which was the largest one at that time.

Everywhere in his house, the decoration showed his respect to the former presidents.

Thomas Jefferson was a man of many interests.
I have heard of many stories about him.
While serving as the American minister to France in the 1780s, he developed quite a taste for European cooking. When he returned to the U.S. from France, he brought with him a French cook and many recipes from France and Italy. One of the Italian foods he ate was pasta.

Some of Jefferson's favorite dishes to serve guests included macaroni, macaroons peach flambé (flaming peaches), and ice cream!
While in France, Jefferson collected many French recipes for things such as sauces fruit tarts, french fries, blood sausages, pigs' feet, rabbit, and pigeon. One of the recipes he brought home has since become an American favorite: vanilla ice cream. This was one of the most popular dishes at his home in Monticello, and this recipe was written by Jefferson himself.

Jefferson had to have a nice place to invite his friends and serve them delicious food.
Monticello means little mountain. The house included a series of rooms where he entertained guests.

Some of his public rooms displayed things he had collected: Native American artifacts, fossils discovered by Lewis and Clark, and images of people he admired.
