FIELD TRIP!!!!!!!!!!

Well I went on a field trip Wednesday with my class to Sao Paulo. Now their field trips are not like ones I was used to. We left the school at 7:30 and went to a Science Museum. We were there for a few hours and it was pretty cool and would have been cooler if I could have understood it but still it was cool. The museum had this planetarium thing that you walked into and they had stars and constellations lit up above us. After that they had this big spill about electromagnetic currents and how it can pass from one person to the other. We all held hands and one guy touched this electric charged wand thing to one person and it went through us all. That was pretty cool!

After the Science Museum, we went to have lunch;we went to McDonald's. It took us forever to get there because at first the bus driver went to the wrong one and then we found the one we were supposed to go to and the bus driver passed it so we had to go all the way back around to get to it and it took us like 15 minutes to do so. There are lots of one way streets in Brasil so it is no easy thing to get back to where you need to be.

Then we went to an Art museum. We were getting ready to go in and they would not let us in until 4:30 (it was about 3:15 then). So needless to say, we did not go there. We went back to the bus and went home. It was about 2 hours to get back home so we didn't get home until around 5:45.

That was my first field trip experience in Brasil and it was tiring. Ate Mais (see you later)

Sounds like a fun field trip. Well, Kati at least you have an excuse for not understanding, the students in my class just choose not to try and understand. Hang in there, God will open your mind and ears to understanding the language and then He will also loosen your tongue to communicate.
