Spring break

I, Note, ae , nui and mei went to Boston, New york and Washingtion DC. New york was very crowd and busy city. Excepting people and language, there is no different between it and bangkok. Drivers and hotel receptionists have ill manners. It is the last city that I want to live in.
The other two cities were nice, quiet and peaceful. I hope I can visit there again.
