Tuesday March 31st

Today was a very busy day.  We left for school and met up with everyone.  Then we went to gym class with the French students and watched them run around in circles over and over again.  Some of us went up and did the activity with them!  We later went off to a Museum that was very interesting, it talked about the cold war and a bunch of other wars.  It was cool because the rooms looked like how it would look back then. After the museum we went to the concentration camp and we ate our lunch that our host families provided us.  Then we went around the camp and saw many different things that showed us what happened when that camp was going on. It seemed like it was a very difficult time.  So many people died there.  Afterwards we went and wrote about what we learned at the concentration camp.  Then we left again for school and then later we had a reception with the French.  They gave us Tshirts and we gave them a flag.  That is all we did today! It was very eventful!

Au revoir !

Today I woke up and was very tired because I could not fall asleep last night! Sacha did not have to wake up until 8 and get to school at 9 , so her mother prepared a great breakfast with cresants and bananas and yogart. It is soo cool because my mom never has time to wake up and make breakfast. We left the house and went straight to school and met everyone there, it was great to see everyone after the long weekend. When we got to school we got a wonderful tour of St. Etienne. someof the younger students shared everthing about the school. After the tour we go welcome bags which was very nice of them to give to us. We then left school and went on a boat tour around Strasbourg. It was very cool how much we saw in that short of time. We then went to the cathedrale. It was very peaceful inside and beautiful! Then Mr. Schnitzler showed and told us everything to know about Strasbourg with the help of Ms. Ory.
