friday 1-5-07, the un






on friday morning we took a tour at the united nations headquarters. it was so interesting! the un area doesnt't belong to any specific country whether the united states. and i didn't know that the un is responsible for the rule of having traffic lights in every country and expiration dates on groceries... it was pretty interesting because there you could learn what really comes out of this organization. in german school i only had to learn about history and who is in it.

i the evening we visited the museum of modern art. it was target free friday night :)

at night we went to a times square cinema to watch "freedom writers". it's a really good movie about a teacher motivating a class which was more into street fighting than into learning. we really enjoyed it :)
