I stayed with a family called Atkielski. They are four members. A couple, Alan and Sandy, their daughter, Samantha and Alan's mother. They have a dog and two cats. They live in a little village called Pleasant Prairie, between Wisconsin and Illinois. It was funny, because every day I was in two different states. Alan loves to go fishing, so I hardly ever saw him during the month I was there. He woke up every day at 4 a.m or earlier, and he was sleeping at 5 p.m. The grandmother was all the day watching TV, so I went everywhere with Sam and Sandy. Sam is a twirler, and she and her team are world champions. During the month I was there, they had a national tournament in Indiana, and I went there with them. I saw enough twirling for all my life!!
In the way to Indiana we stopped in Michigan for a weekend. In this area there are a lot of lakes, and we played water sports. It was amazing!
4 days before I left, they showed me Chicago. I loved it. Chicago has huge buildings, and everything looks new.
Here you have a photo of Sam, Sandy and me in Willis tower, the tallest building in Chicago.
