The Trip to America: Lost Boys

The lost boys finally got on their plane and were heading for America. They were very amazed by the plane and the things it could do. On the plane they had American food for the first time and they said that their own food was better. I believe they said this because they didn't know how to eat the food the way that we do, for example on of the boys was eating butter, just straight-up butter. Once he had eaten it he made a strange face as if to say "this is disgusting", we would agree with him, you don't just eat butter plain. Once they arrived to America they were shocked to see all the people and culture. They soon were assigned their apartment and they were discovering new things their too. They learned how to "use" electricity, learned what a shower is, and that we use trash cans, you don't throw your food out the window when you are done with it. They continued to learn new things about their apartment, I think the most shocker to them was that the each got their own bed. Later on in the day they went to a grocery store, and they learned how to provide food for themselves. They were enjoying their new life in America, but they were still concerned about the other boys and how they were doing. They said that they were doing this for them, to possibly give them an opportunity to come to America. They thought about the other boys constantly and that hopefully soon their country will regain peace, but for now they were very grateful for the opportunities that they had been given.
