Last Day and travel

Yesterday was our last day in Milford. We went at school until the 4 Mod that we had to leave. It was really sad, anyone wanted to leave Milford because we had a very good friends there and a family.

TV in USA

In the USA, the TV is very different than in Spain, there are more than 600 channels and this channels are specialized in an only kind of progaram, for example, a channel broadcast comic shows, another broadcast cooking shows, another, football games... My family's favourite shows were "Modern family" or "Criminal minds". I watched TV with English subtitles for understanding better the dialogues.
The sports are very important. If a person that is a very good basketball or American football player wants to go to the University, he can get a scholarship. They appraise the sports as the marks. Students have three or more hours of gym each week, they watch in TV a lot of sports too and they encourage their school or town teams so much.
