Wow! What a great day to be Canadian in the Netherlands! Everyone is congratulating us on the exciting gold medal win last night. I think we have introduced our Dutch friends to a new game - and I think Sidney Crosby is going to become a household name throughout the Netherlands! It is amazing to hear many, many Dutch people say that they watched Sidney Crosby score the game winner. Almost all of them will then admit that they had no idea who Sidney Crosby was before yesterday's game. It was very interesting to watch the final game on BBC television - a much different perspective than we would get in Canada!
The students all arrived safely on their bikes this morning and began their day with a tour of the school. They then went into class with their hosts. Afterwards they got on bikes and headed to the center of Almelo for a tour of the fire station, and some free time to explore the shopping area. Tomorrow we will meet as a group and students will begin contributing to our blog.
When do we get to see the photo of the trip supervisors on bikes?? :)
