Hej! Er der nogen der vil kigge min stil igennem for fejl ? Hvis i synes der er for meget til at I gider at rette det hele, kan I jo bare tjekke noget af. Så ville jeg være meget taknemlig:)
Our study tour to Paris started on 14 September. We went by bus and arrived in Paris on 15 September 9 o’clock. We spent the rest of the day going around in Paris. We saw Notre Dame and were on sightseeing-sail. After that we went home to our hotel.
We decided to go out and find something to eat. We went to a street near our hotel. Actual there were a lot of restaurants to choose between but they did not look very inviting. Plainly, we had not chosen the most expensive and finest street in Paris. There lay very much trash and rubbish about the street. There lay beggars and there was a bad smell of cars and petrol. After a longer walk, we run into “Restaurant Pizza and Döner”. Nor this restaurant did look very inviting, but we were all very hungry and just wanted something to eat. We went in and received a hearty welcome. A little French waiter gave us the menu cards. But they were in French and were not possible to understand. We asked the French waiter but his English was hopeless and likewise impossible to understand as the menu cards. Therefore, I tried one's luck. I ordered an oriental pizza. I did not know what it was. I just hoped for the best. Few minutes later came the waiter with my pizza. Suddenly, I got very very strange feeling in my stomach and quickly I understood that I had ordered a pizza with cheese, egg and sausages and the feeling in my stomach was spread to rest of my body. It was the most disgusting pizza I had ever seen. The smell of eggs mixed whit sausages was spread in the whole restaurant. More than anything else I just wanted to run away and find the nearest McDonald. But after longer times thought I gave the pizza a chance. I took the cutlery and began to cut out a little slice. The knife was very blunt. I filled my glass with cola. Then I was prepared to taste the pizza. I took around the slice. The bread was very soft. I held one's breathe some seconds and took a little bite of the pizza. First I could not taste anything. But after some seconds the taste was spread in my whole mouth. I felt like my taste buds exploded. I had never tested something so hot. I began to sweat and slowly my eyes were filled with tears. I could not swallow the pizza. I grab the glass with cola drank the cola. I did not eat up and I could taste the pizza in my mouth long time after.
The next day we went to the science- and industry museum Cite des Sciences et de I’Industrie. It was very exciting. There were many things you could try. But especially the new planetarium was stirring. It used all the resources of 3D video and took us and the other audiences on a journey from planet to planet, to visit the stars in the Milky Way and explored the galaxy. Unfortunately the commentator was French and very difficult to understand.
I think Paris is a very exciting city. There are many sights and museums. But something I find very impressive is the public transport system. It is very easy to come around and it acts perfect. The metro stations lay very close and the metro runs every second minute. Moreover is it very cheap. One billet costs only 1.10 euro. And it is valid regardless where you want to go. But I am a bit disappointed at the night life in Paris. It is nothing special and not what I expect by a big city as Paris. But maybe it is just because we do not know the good places.
Paris is a very big city. And there lives many people, about eight million. There are many beggars and sinister people. But they do not matter much. But one thing that irritates me is that nobody can speak English. Even the hotel personnel can speak English. And that is not good enough. Only in some of the big and very exclusive stores on Champ Elyseés do they speak English. My first impression of the French was that they were very arrogant. But it was also my impression before the study tour. And I think I have the impression from National football team. Particularly the hotel personnel were very arrogant. They would not speak to you they took no notice of you. But now I think it is because they can not speak together with us. Surely some of them are arrogant. I think it is because they can not speak English.

Datoen bør ikke rettes til September 14th, med mindre du skriver på amerikansk engelsk.

Zeta nej. 14 September er helt korrekt britisk engelsk. Man kan dog sagtens skrive the 14th of September, hvis man foretrækker genitivformen.
