Ausflug an die University of Iowa

On the fourth day of our eventful trip, we visited the University of Iowa. We viewed the buildings and spent the day there.

My day started at 7 o’clock at my host family home. Before going to school, I had breakfast. After that I got ready for school and her mom drove me there. In our high school we all found ourselves in the German room. When we were all sitting there, we talked a lot and laughed together. We also exchanged what we did yesterday with our host families. With a “healthy chip bag”, we waited to be picked up by the bus that took us to the university at 9:30 a.m.

9:45 a.m. we sit on the bus – a typical yellow school bus.

45 minutes later, we are now in front of the University of Iowa. Here we were received very warmly.

There was an interesting tour and we looked at the buildings. It was breathtaking, there are so many options. I was most fascinated by the sports building, it was very large and varied. After the tour we went to dinner. There was a huge buffet with pizza, pasta, burgers, wraps, yogurt bar and dessert bar. We were all so full.

After lunch we went to a tree on campus, which is connected to Anne Frank. There we were told something about their history. 

Around 1:30 p.m. we started the return trip to Cedar Rapids. After we got back to school, we split up. Some of our hosts were still in school, the others had finished school.

In the afternoon everyone did something different with their host and ended the impressive day.

The University of Iowa was very large and diverse. It was interesting to see how many possibilities you have there.

I hope you liked the block entry about our visit to the University of Iowa.
