#5 Apple, McDonald's

This week was almost the same like all the previous working every day, expect that we changed our days off and I got the Sunday, now. Since a while I started to go cycle everyday after we finished with our job. Sometimes I've just went for an easy ride around the town, or go get some speeding, however what I liked the most so far, was going in the forest and handle the bike on narrow dusty roads etc. it is also very helpful to build some muscles, not only on the legs. =)

On Friday we had the pay day, and finally they deposit the money to my bank account, so I got an e-mail immediately as it arrived in the morning. I checked on the Apple store if the closest one has the model that I wanted, and after work I went straight there by bike to get my new, and also my first Apple iPhone, the Special Edition (SE). It was a little bit exhausting to cycle almost 20 kilometers (around 15 miles) in a row with only a few stops, but I got there in time to even set my new phone and I got back to the camp before sunset.

On Saturday I was working with Toni all day, it wasn't that since we had nothing extra to do, beside the usual cleaning. On Sunday I had my day off with Ági and Tomi, and after lunch we decided to go to Kingston to check an instrument shop with pretty guitars and so, and also to eat at a McDonald's restaurant which is so called the "American dream", haha, no. However it came originally from here, so it's a must try for the new comers at least. =)

#4 1st month passed

It is hard to force myself and write the blog each week, since I'm not always having a Wi-Fi connections and when I have I'm not always carring my netbook with myself, so I easily forget about it...

This week was almost all the same like the previous ones, we did our job etc. However there was a littl echange with the days off, since Viktor wanted to visit his girlfriendon Sunday, so he worked on Saturday instead of Olivér and him, Zsófi and I had a day off, and after some discussion we finally decided to go to Plymounth by Uber and take some time in the city near the ocean and walk around the city center. We got to the rock at first since the ride was tilll there, then we walked around the ocean checking out the Mayflower ship's replica.

Then we walked in the city and accidently went in to a Diva's Dance Competition which was probably for the local kids as we saw the competitors. Afterwards we went in a restaurant which uses local products to make their meals, then made some more walk around and also catched an ice cream van to buy some, and later we enjoyed the music festival which was taking place in the city center while we were there, however it was mainly for the local retired people as we saw the auidence... :D

And our week passed, we just went back to work on Sunday and start the next week.

#3 Rainy day off

This week we had nothing special to do, however we made some bike rides around the neighborhood after work. We went to Marshfield's airport, which was a small one for private sport and leisure planes. On another day I went around alone and I end up in Pembroke and found a school bus parking lot and real american suburban area as well.

And then on Saturday we had a rainy day, so we cannot do anything in our day off... just stay in the camp and chill while there was a little time without rain I went to cycle around.

#2 Kids arrived

This week, we just started to work from Monday as noramally and as the kids arrived on Friday we started to work on the camp schedule from 9 to 5 instead of the 8 to 4. On Tuesday all the staff expect the maintenance team got a day off, however from Monday the day camp started already, so we had job to do...

On Thursday we had our last day without kids, so we hadd a graduation party where everyone called by name and been intreduced to all the staff members like what they'll do during the summer! It was a crazy party and also there was a banquette dinner before where we had some really good meals thanks to our kitchen staff!

On Saturday we had our day off with Viktor and Sophie so we planned to go to the ocean again, however we had to check the bikes and make them ready, so Viktor had to wait and since Sophie wanted check the bank wee went a bit earlier to catch it opened. So we activated the online banking and then we went to a mall to look around as she needed some clothes to buy and then we went to Brant Rock and spent some time at the beach which was a bit rocky as its name says... and I took some pictures as well:

On Sunday we had to work with Viktor, and we were that lucky the stockade's new bathroom was opened already, so we had to clean an extra 20 toilets and sinks and right now only 5 showers, since they don't have the rest ready yet, and hopefully they'll be ready on next Wednesday.

#1 First week passed

The first week is already gone, we've been working the whole week from 8 to 4. In the middle of the week the rest of the hungarians arrived, so now we are 10 in total, 3 girls and 7 boys. 3 of us working as a maintenance guy and one as laundry and maintenance the rest of them are in the kitchen.

On Sunday we had a day off, so in the morning we fixed some bikes and went to Duxbury beach to have some rest and get out from the camp. We came back to the camp to watch the hungarian - belgian football/soccer match, but we got disappointed since we lost by getting 4 goals scored... It was also hungarian day in the camp, but there were nothing special just at the dinner we could put in some hungarian music, and that's it.

Arrival to the USA

This Friday I had my flight from Billund to Frankfurt then to Boston where I had to take the silver line bus to the south station and then the red line metro to get to Braintree where Rob was waiting for me to pick me up and head to the camp. During the flight I was trying to relax a little and I watched 2 movies: Deadpool and the new version of Alice in Wonderland and what a surprise: I saw Wi-Fi on airplanes before, but on Lufthansa it was free to use Facebook on it, so I used the advantages of it, however the messenger didn't work on my phone but on my PC I could easily use, however the pictures didn't load but I could send! :D When I arrived to the camp it was almost 6 PM, so I've just took dinner talkl with some guys and went to sleep around 10 PM. Next morning I've already had to wake up and work form 8 AM, so I started to get know one of my new workmates, during the afternoon the 3rd maintenance guy arrived and we moved to our cabin and went sleep early again.

Sunday we had a day off, so with Viktór, the newly arrived maintenance guy we planed to go to the beach like where we went last year with the other guys, and during the afternoon I was talking with Alexa and Roda about how we could meet, since we are not that far from eachother, but still there are not too many options to get there... :\ After dinner we had a WalMart trip and that was pretty much all the first 3 days as I arrived.

Getting ready for my 2nd summer in the US!

 

I directly put this post on that time, since one year ago at that time I hade my first post from the US! Now I'm still in Denmark for a few more days and getting ready to head straight to the US form here.

I am hoping that I will have some more motivation this year to write my blog, I'm planing to do a weekly report here just as well as I did it on my Studying abroad in the EU, all the experience blog this semester. However the picture is not that accurate, since I'll fly from Billund through Frankfurt to Boston, but there are some non-stop flights from Copenhagen anyway. ;)

I got some plans for this summer already, as long as 2 of my Erasmus friends from Romania are just arrived there, a few days ago, and they are staying in the same state like me! So hopefully we will manage to schedule a meeting there and have some fun together! =)
