Hello from San Francisco

Hello there everyone. I hope you all enjoyed the party on Thursday evening - I know I did.
I write from my friends' flat in San Francisco. We had a comfortable flight, if very long! This is my first time in America. and it's strange how familiar it is (from films, TV, similarity to Britain) yet how different. I haven't got used to the American accents everywhere yet.
It's now Saturday night here (Sunday morning there though I know) and we have spent today mostly catching up with the friends we are staying with. I shall write more in a day or two if you want to catch up with me.
To those of you that are with us for a while, I shall see you in January. To those of you that finish at the end of the week, good luck, keep in touch with us, and if you would like to be members of the blog so you can keep checking in with us, give you email addresses to your teacher or to the office, or email them to me at jackie@eckersley.co.uk

Despide the fact that we couldn't take pictures , I think someone took pictures .
I saw a lot of pictures about old world . However I liked only one .
The first floor I liked due to the fact that it was the most interesting .


ARTURO
Despite of having a little bit time, we saw a lot of paintures.
There was many post cards, however, we didn't buy anyone.
Despite the fact that taking pictures was banned,we took some pictures.
Despite the fact that we don't understand english very well,we learned a lot about the museum.
Although the second floor was closed,we saw a lot of sculptures on the ground floor.
Although we aren't experts in sculptures,we enjoyed a lot.
The second floor was closed due to the refurbishment.
Due to the fact that we didn't have time to saw the basement,we didn't see this area.
There were some people giving information,however,we didn't ask them about museum.
