#17 Halloween and P.O. beach

Honestly I always don't know how to start most of my posts. So I'm just gonna cut the introduction and talk about the facts.
Friday afternoon, right after school, I went with my hmom, Pauline and the kids to the Pumpkin Patch. Don't worry, I didn't know what to expect either. It is a kind of open farm with pumpkin fields, some farm animals, a maze in the corn (yes just like in movies) and scarecrows everywhere. Families go there mainly to choose the pumpkins to decorate the house for Halloween, and so we did. 

To seat on this   I walked in the mud all around it. Nice.

The crew <3
Pumpkins along the house path, I decorated my pumpkin doing the deathly allows symbol.
I actually really put my hand inside the pumpkin to take out the seeds and the flesh, which for me was a bit challenging but I did and I was so proud of my final project  ahahah.

On Halloween night, which was Monday, I went to Chiara's house (another exchange student) with a group of friends and we had sooo much fun.
Her host family decorated the house as a haunted house, meaning that they put a bunch of creepy stuff everywhere in the house and we were supposed to hide in the house and scare people that came to visit us. We did pretty well ahah, me and Chiara were dressed up as vampires, while another girl was a evil demon and another one as an Indian (I don't know why). At the end of the evening we had no voice anymore cause we screamed a lot to scare and surprise visitors.
It was so weird seeing how much effort some families put in decorating houses and celebrating this festivity. Around six all the kids went to do trick or treat door by door (again so much like in movies).


Sunday we also went on a family trip to Lincoln City, a town by the Pacific Ocean. Yesss we went to the beach for a while, it's amazing seeing the ocean, the water was a bit cold but we could still walk on the shore and enjoy the sunny day (rare because here it rains a lot). I took a bunch of nice pictures with my Polaroid.
We also went to a typical Restaurant for breakfast and the portions were way too large. I mean really nonsense, in facts here on every restaurant you go at the wnd they give you boxes to take the leftovers home.
