Gabby left this morning on her class trip to Holmhallar on the Swedish island of Gotland. Sixty seventh graders from the Stockholm International School boarded buses for an hour long ride to the coast. Then they boarded a large ferry, with a 'big' cafe, outlets and a movie theater.... it was all sooooo awesome, for a four hour ride to Visby on the northern end of Gotland. From Visby the class boarded another bus for an hour or so drive to Holmhallar at the very southern end of Gotland. Luckily the travel sickness pill worked well!
The rest of the day consisted of cabin assignments, dinner, bike fittings (and for some students bike riding lessons). Tomorrow will be the first day of the Polar Bear Club... students have to at least get totally wet and must participate every morning to actually qualify for membership in the Club.
The students' time on the island will be spent biking to Kettlevik, Hoburgen and Sundre Keep. The final day (Friday) will include a tour of Visby and the Fornsalen Museum before traveling back to Stockholm.
