In the morning we woke up and ate breakfast. I had a grilled cheese type thing, I'm not quite sure what they would call it. After getting prepared for the day we had to go to PE. Since Laura has dance for PE, it was actually quite exciting. We were all able to learn a dance with the Dutch students. Since I'm a cheerleader, I felt right in place while learning this dance. After PE we had to go to school and get ready to learn! During the day we went to a couple classes, but the fun part of the school day was working on the memory wall. The memory wall is a cool thing where we can put pictures of memories from our trip. Each american student was able to print and post pictures of them and their partners. The wall turned out great and now for the next year people in Dordrecht will be able to see pictures from the amazing time we had there.
After school we went home and ate some soup. Laura's mom's tomato soup has become my new obsession.
Later we went to the farewell dinner. We ate delicious Chinese food and listened to people give their speeches. Us Americans had to give a speech in dutch which was sort of difficult. Also the dutch students who traveled to America earlier this year said some words on their experience in America. At this farewell dinner we saw some of the dutch students who had traveled to America last year. It was nice seeing them and being able to reconnect on old memories of the previous year. During this time we took lots of pictures (of course).
After the farewell dinner Laura's family took me out to get some ice cream. The place we went to was really delicious and we could chose 3 flavors in one cup! On the way home from the ice cream place we were all singing loudly to the radio and having so much fun. When we arrived home I had to pack and get ready for the next day. I'm so excited for London, but sad to leave Dordrecht.
