Blog Entry #6

Dear Diary,

I continued my journey to the Midwest States. As I reached Ohio, I noticed that the cities and towns had grown tremendously, and there was more traffic than I remembered.

The biggest difference I noticed between the Midwest and New England was that the people here are much friendlier. An example of this was a more pleasant experience with the waitress at a roadside diner than I had in New England. This waitress was much friendlier and strangers were more willing to talk to one another.

One thing that I observed was the different ways people spoke in different parts of the country. Since my previous travels people from different areas are starting to sound similar. I think this is because of television and radio.



When I got to Michigan, I noticed that it was covered with trees and lakes, and was very beautiful.
