WORDS:NORWEGIANS AND CHEESECAKE

Spent my evening last night hanging out with a couple of friends and a trio of Norwegians on a road trip through California. I got a moment to ask one of them what his favorite things so far about being in America were. He had spent the afternoon at Huntington beach. It was his favorite place. Everything about it. It was the most relaxing place he said. He loved the American surfer chicks and how laid back and cool they were and showed me some pictures he had taken with and of a few of them and how they had posed for him. Even while we were walking around town little things like asking how large of a fine there was if we didn't wait for the "little white man" to appear before we crossed the street and me not knowing what this "little white man" he was referring the was made me think about how I don't think too often about where I live. It was a fun night hanging out with people from somewhere far away. Also, I was asked the most difficult question I have been asked in a while. "What is my favorite thing about America?" i was stumped for a while. The only sad part of spending time with this group from Norway was Norwegians don't seem to be big fans of Mexican food. Oh well, more for me.
