Day 25 - Election day!

Today is an exciting day! - Its election day!
Well i will get back to that:-)

First we had to go to school. Our first class was Texas History with our very cool teacher Larry. He gave us a lesson in music history focusing on Texas music. It was very interesting!
"Open Lab" was short today. We had to go early to go home and get ready to go to "The Driskill Hotel". It is the most expensive hotel in Austin. That was were the official Democratic election party was held. When we arrived we had to eat there. The food was very good! - Especially the dessert which was a REALLY great chocolate cake:-P Afterward the election stuff started. There were big screens sat up so everybody could follow the results. A lot of people showed up, and the atmosphere was awesome! - And the great result helped a lot in that way:-) It was a huge experience to be in the United States during an election where the first Afro-American president is elected - in a city where everyone has voted democratic. When we got outside the hotel which is in the middle of the city, cars were driving by honking their horns and people shouting out the windows:-)



When we got home my head was all messed up:-P There had been so many people at the hotel shouting and clapping:-P
We relaxed while having the TV on to follow the final results for each state.
This is a very excited Jennifer when Obama won:
