Arriving in Huntsville II Saturday 15th July 2017

The journey was amazing, well at least most of it. Unfortunately we didn't have direct flights this time. The main flight was a mix of lovely food, movies, and card and pool games. I, personally, was surprised by the fact that a 1 hour flight to Paris had inflight entertainment. Time seemed to fly by. Then we came to the US customs. A boring 3 hour queue for those with foreign passports. The 2 with US passports were able to get swiftly through in 15 minutes. Talk about being jealous! All in all the journey was good but now I have learnt to go to the loo before entering the customs queue.

The part that I most enjoyed at Burritt on the Mountain was learning about the struggles of the civil war from the blacksmith and the importance of iron in the 1800s. The Cathedral Caverns were amazing, the structures of stalagmites and stalactites littered the ceiling and the floor, creating beautiful columns, the biggest being 44 feet high and 26 feet wide, the cave's founder calling it Goliath.

As we entered the heaven on Earth, also known as 88 Buffet, our nostrils were invigorated by all kinds of oriental aromas, from frog legs to exotic pizza and chips, from squid to sausages, as well as at least 20 different types of chicken. The way our tastebuds were scintillated was truly magical.

On Saturday we went to the Caverns, which was alright. At the end of the tour, the guide turned out the light and we apparently saw some glow worms. I say apparently because we saw a green light that was shining on the rocks. The guide merely said it was a 'figment of my imagination'. If my parents are reading this, I'm fine, for now.

Yesterday, the day that we found reasonably good food at the 88 buffet for the first time in America. All of the seafood was amazing because there actually was a variety of food. The best part of yesterday was the caves because every 5 minutes, we decided to take silhouettes and took some great pictures.

On Saturday we went around a lot of typically American places, including the Cathedral Caverns, a mall, and Porky's diner. There, we ate some delicious food including some pulled pork sandwiches and cheeseburgers. These were delicious!

Some comments on the Pounder burger which ten students decided to order I'll put ketchup with this because it takes away the tast...
