Today students gave presentations on northern cities of the United States. They had to answer questions about the weather, certain activities, sights to see, and the hotel. Here are some examples by two students.
Badr gave a speech about Portland, Oregon and the Doubletree Hotel there. There's a famous rose garden and Japanese garden there, plus an interesting zoo. You can see a lot of nature in Portland--the Willamette River and many mountains. Portland is not as cold as La Crosse, but you can go snowboarding in the nearby Cascade Mountains. Rooms at the Doubletree Hotel start around $150 per night. It has an outdoor pool and WiFi.
Angus gave a speech about Buffalo, New York. The weather is similar to the weather in La Crosse. Buffalo gets very cold in winter and sometimes gets more snow than La Crosse. It's about 13 hours from La Crosse by car. There are many things to do there like taking part in the National Buffalo Wing Festival where many people eat chicken wings. There's also a lot of sports teams to watch, like the Buffalo Bills and Buffalo Sabres.
