From Italy

Hello parents,
Homestay was fantastic!  All the students had a wonderful experience with their families.  We have really connected with Austria.
After homestay, we went to the towns of Friesach and Sirnitz in the province of Corinthia.  We had a close encouter with medieval times, castles, food and games.
 Sirnitz is the hometown of our Delgation Manager, Hans. We hiked in the Alps, learned Austrian dances and enjoyed the hospitality of his family. And then we said goodby to  beautiful Austria, hoping to come back one day.
Last night we arrived in Italy.  Today, we explored Venice, took a relaxing trip on a gondola, and had free time for shopping!
 Tomorrow we will visit Florence. Then we go to Pisa and finally, Rome.
