By the time they resume classes in January, egypt tour groups Knox College students egypt tour groups Anjuli Walter and Riho Orito will have journeyed almost 5,000 miles together by plane, train, bus, and car, touring two countries and 14 states.
Walter, who is from Germany, and Orito, who is from Japan, became egypt tour groups friends at Knox during the 2012 fall term. They decided to use Knox's traditional winter break -- a six-week period between the fall and winter terms -- to see historic sites, visit museums, and meet people. (Photo above: Walter and Orito in Chicago's Millennium Park.)
"We want to know more about the U.S.," Walter said. "Galesburg is a great town and all, but I think people are different in the U.S., and they're different in the different egypt tour groups places and the bigger cities and the smaller towns."
Walter and Orito have plotted out a 29-day itinerary that starts in Chicago, Illinois, and continues to Toronto, Canada; egypt tour groups Niagara Falls; New York City, New York; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Washington, D.C.; Mount Rushmore; and Yellowstone National Park.
While in New York, they plan to stroll through some of the city's most well-known and culturally diverse areas, such as Little Italy and Chinatown. They also hope to get tickets to a Broadway production of Wicked .
They are traveling by bus. The ride will last more than 40 hours and cover more than 1,600 miles, taking the international students through Maryland, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, and Minnesota before they reach South Dakota. There, they will see Mount Rushmore.
After Mount Rushmore, they will drive to Yellowstone National Park. Walter previously has visited the Grand Canyon, Bryce Canyon, Death Valley, and Yosemite national parks, and she is eager to add another to her list.
