North Wilkesboro is decorated with Halloween ornaments. Wherever you go, you will see Jack-O-Lanterns, spiders, haystack, scarecrows, ghosts, haunted houses and witches. when it comes to celebrations, i means costumes. Yesterday, October 17, we were hosted at a friend's place to celebrate three birthdays. It was awesome! We had great fun and savored delicious American, Panamean, Brazilian and Jamaican food. &lt;br /&gt;Posted 3 minutes ago.

We have traveled in NC to visit friends, go shopping, and have fun. The first out of state trip we took was to Washington, DC. It was a wonderful trip !&lt;br /&gt;We left North Wilkesboro on Wednesday and returned on Sunday. The six-hour trip was great. We were six people, 4 adults and 2 children, so we rented a van and took turns driving. We stayed at a hotel and in the morning we took a shuttle to the nearest subway station. We were not confident to drive around Washington, so we took the subway to visit some monuments and museums there.&lt;br /&gt;Washington DC is awesome! There are lots of museums, monuments and attractions there. &lt;a href="http://www.thedistrict.com/"&gt;http://www.thedistrict.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Above you can see some of them. Our friends, Carlos(from Peru), Leigh and Matthew(New Zealand), Anderson(Brazil), my son and I(Brazil) had a lot of fun!:)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="320" height="266" class="BLOG_video_class" id="BLOG_video-1a7ee9387d7f0b39" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/get_player"&gt;&lt;param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF"&gt;&lt;param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;param name="flashvars" value="flvurl=http://v16.nonxt4.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?id%3D1a7ee9387d7f0b39%26itag%3D5%26app%3Dblogger%26ip%3D0.0.0.0%26ipbits%3D0%26expire%3D1331235588%26sparams%3Did,itag,ip,ipbits,expire%26signature%3D4F839591E04D5D4366B198B4A16702F6A666B7EB.35601BE5B5450DEFE7986BB2768F39110D9ADE88%26key%3Dck1&amp;amp;iurl=http://video.google.com/ThumbnailServer2?app%3Dblogger%26contentid%3D1a7ee9387d7f0b39%26offsetms%3D5000%26itag%3Dw160%26sigh%3D8ixg4E8mCrgmAkPXXS3jtIdKTDE&amp;amp;autoplay=0&amp;amp;ps=blogger"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/get_player" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"width="320" height="266" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"flashvars="flvurl=http://v16.nonxt4.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?id%3D1a7ee9387d7f0b39%26itag%3D5%26app%3Dblogger%26ip%3D0.0.0.0%26ipbits%3D0%26expire%3D1331235588%26sparams%3Did,itag,ip,ipbits,expire%26signature%3D4F839591E04D5D4366B198B4A16702F6A666B7EB.35601BE5B5450DEFE7986BB2768F39110D9ADE88%26key%3Dck1&amp;iurl=http://video.google.com/ThumbnailServer2?app%3Dblogger%26contentid%3D1a7ee9387d7f0b39%26offsetms%3D5000%26itag%3Dw160%26sigh%3D8ixg4E8mCrgmAkPXXS3jtIdKTDE&amp;autoplay=0&amp;ps=blogger"allowFullScreen="true" /&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1160322970555572014-4242012276750196263?l=eslusa08.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='enclosure' type='video/mp4' href='http://www.blogger.com/video-play.mp4?contentId=1a7ee9387d7f0b39&amp;type=video%2Fmp4' length='0'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://eslusa08.blogspot.com/feeds/4242012276750196263/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1160322970555572014&amp;postID=4242012276750196263' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1160322970555572014/posts/default/4242012276750196263'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1160322970555572014/posts/default/4242012276750196263'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://eslusa08.blogspot.com/2008/10/thanksgiving-in-washington-dc.html' title='Thanksgiving in Washington DC'/><author><name>Maria da Luz Delfino</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00744992290252884894</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_JsYkmY4Rhf0/STHu6YaJtcI/AAAAAAAAAG0/e6NCt4PiA5k/S220/CIMG1102.JPG'/></author><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1160322970555572014.post-5286375354773665683</id><published>2008-10-05T14:51:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-05T15:21:15.787-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Fun, Fun everywhere!</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#cc6600;"&gt;Hello everyone,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc6600;"&gt;here I am in North Wilkesboro, NC. Since my son and I got here, we have been learning and sharing a lot! We live in a small town, about 5 hours from Raleigh. We have enjoyed this exchange program experience. Although North Wilkesboro is a small and quiet town, last week we had some fun during the 31st Apple Festival. It was very colorful and lively. In the picture, I am in Melody Square, where there was a gospel concert at 3:00.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1160322970555572014-5286375354773665683?l=eslusa08.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://eslusa08.blogspot.com/feeds/5286375354773665683/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1160322970555572014&amp;postID=5286375354773665683' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1160322970555572014/posts/default/5286375354773665683'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1160322970555572014/posts/default/5286375354773665683'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://eslusa08.blogspot.com/2008/10/fun-fun-everywhere.html' title='Fun, Fun everywhere!'/><author><name>Maria da Luz Delfino</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00744992290252884894</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_JsYkmY4Rhf0/STHu6YaJtcI/AAAAAAAAAG0/e6NCt4PiA5k/S220/CIMG1102.JPG'/></author><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry></feed>
