Meeting With Our "Travel Agency"

Photo by Doran

On Tuesday the 19th of May, we didn't participate in our normal 7th period classes. We were told who our DC chaperones and sent into the cafeteria, where we sat down in our groups. You could feel the excitement building as we exchanged numbers and met all of our partners.  

The meeting gave us very valuable information for the trip.  For starters we will arrive to school at the whopping time of 3:15 in the morning on Wednesday, and our flight will take off at about 6:00. 

The packing list includes deodorant, toothbrush, toothpaste, hairbrush, sunblock, two nice shorts and T-shirts, sneakers or comfortable walking shoes, pajamas, three pairs of socks, underwear, long pants, sweatshirt, rain jacket. Other packing items for the carry-on are healthy snacks, empty water bottle, sneakers and socks, camera, cellphone, book or ipod, and spending money ($50-75).  

To school on Wednesday morning we should wear comfortable clothing and flip-flops or shoes that are easy to remove for security. Without this meeting parts of the trip would still be a mystery to me today.
