OMAHA!!

This is the next post! This time there will be pictures or at least one picture i don't know yet. But you can be excited there will be pictures! Good and I'm writing bout my trip to Omaha. I went there at Friday right after school, and we stayed one night in a hotel there and came back on Saturday, evening. 

I now try to remember everything, let's start at the beginning: Friday after school my hostmum picked me up like every day, then we went home, so that I could pack my things I've prepared the evening before, change my clothes, and get ready. 20 minutes later we were leaving, i was really excited because Omaha is the biggest city of Nebraska with a little bit more than 400 000 inhabitants. And i was looking forward to it because I really wanted to see a big american city, although 400 000  doesn't sound really big (vienna has 1.6 million ),but I should be  wrong, but more later :) 

good so we went to Omaha and we had to drive about 2 and a half hours. I didn't think that it was that much time i was too busy looking out of the window, because everything around me was too fascinating: the cool american trucks on the street, the landscape, which changed during our trip (the land wasn't that flat anymore) and even the street signs! When we came pas a big city after 2 hours i thought "Wow we arrived!" but it was Lincoln, the capital of Nebraska. From the Highway you could see so many stores and stuff it was amazing! 

But we drove past this city and then i realized that we've been in Lincoln, so we continued driving. And then finally, we arrived in Omaha, it was already dark but this made everything look so awesome! And everything seemed so big! I saw University, the house of a rich man, whose name I don' remember 'cause I don't know him, other big buildings, an american cinema (it really looked like the cinemas in the movie) and  many sculptures from horses and buffalos (I found out that some of them live in the area where i stay, wuhu that's awesome) and of that white  wagons, you know what you know from the western movies, pulled by cows AND i saw a shop called "Tannenbaum" , which was funny because I never expected a german word in this city. ANd the city WAS big, I couldn't believe that there don't live as much people as in Vienna!

 The first stop in Omaha wasn't our hotel as I expected it, it was a restaurant called "the cheesecake factory". A really cool name but it was suitable, because there they sell about 30 different kinds of Cheesecake, with every flavor you can imagine (and more)really! But it was very crowded in there, so after we ordered a  table we got that thing, which rang when we have a table and so we had to wait. And we waited in front of the place where they sell the cakes, it was a torture :P But finally we got a table, we sat down ordered the beverages and the food (i took a coke and a pizza in a small size but that was big enough i don't want to know how big the BIG one is) and the food was delicious. After the food we ordered an Oreo-cheesecake. So great there are so many things you can get with oreo that's great. The cake was delicious! but a bit too much whipped cream, in my opinion. 

 Then we got into our hotel and it was amazing! very modern and beautiful and green and pretty. Yeah the rest of the evening I stayed in the hotel-room watching a show about weddings and dresses for the bride, playing a stupid game on the iPad which made me addicted to it ;) and going on facebook. 

The next morning, i woke up at 10 o'clock, made myself ready for the day and then we were leaving the hotel next stop: ?? No i didn't know at this moment so we just drove around and I saw lots of things and then we stopped at this bakery and i expected i go in and i smell  that amazing scent of  fresh bread, but nothing. I was a bit disappointed that it was that different, they had no "Semmel" and that crunchy brown bread I know from Austria. But they have all kinds if bread with cinnamon, I tasted it and it was very good! So we  bought a package of that bread and then we left, and went TO THE MALL!
uuh that was amazing, cool shops wherever i looked and the prices where so cheap, it couldn't hardly believe my eyes :O but it was true and so we went into a few shops, I was absolutely speechless in every of them, and of course I bought stuff though ;) After a small break at the restaurant I went to the Hollister stoe and it was AWESOME! i love this store really! it was wintersale so all that stuff was especially cheap and there I bought the most, it took me some time, to choose the stuff i want to buy, so everyone waited for me :) Nevermind ;) After this we left the mall, i was pretty happy about this because otherwise I wouldn't have been  be able to carry all the stuff that I bought. 

the next stop after the mall was that shop called "Red mango" . I've never heard of this  before, they sell frozen yogurt there, my hostmum explained to me and i thought "hey that sounds good!!!"
But I didn't think that it would be THAT good! in the store you could choose from about 14 different flavors of frozen yogurt, it was SO GOOD, and then when you chose which flavor you want to have you could choose the topping like fruits, cereals, sweets,... aaahh that was soo good hopefully we get there more often, I absolutely loved it. 

After the red mango, we got home i was pretty happy about that it had been an exciting day!!    

Byye now, and now i will attach a picture because i promised it :D
