We all agree, we had a wonderful time together and we hope, we will keep in touch. Please use this post and describe your feelings, when you came back home, how was it to meet your family again and how did you schoolmates react to your stories about Slovenia. We are all anxious to read your comments. You can also do a short evaluation and tell us what you liked and what you disliked in the exchange week.
And here the friendship song just for you.

Goodbye moment
Why can't we get all the people together in the world that we really like and then just stay together? I guess that wouldn't work. Someone would leave. Someone always leaves. Then we would have to say good-bye. I hate good-byes. I know what I need. I need more hellos.
(Charles M. Schulz)
This morning we had to separate and say goodbye. Everybody was crying. We hope you had a nice journey back to your dearest families. Write about your day in the comments!
Be well, do good work and keep in touch.

Day 5 in Slovenia
Today we had another exciting episode of our exchange. After a very thrilling bus trip to the hills of Kamnik, we visited the Budnar's museum house and learnt how people lived 200 hundred years ago. Then you became experts at making Easter bouquets, didn't you? Good job everyone!
Before lunch, we visited the smallest dislocated unit of our school in Vranja Peč where pupils and teachers prepared a marvellous perfomance.
In the afternoon we played different sports in the gym, then we headed to Ljubljana where we had a tour of the castle.
Please respond to the following questions for the blog:
What was the most dangerous part of the Ljubljana castle?
What was the most beautiful part of the castle?
Would you like to live in this castle? Why/why not?
Before going to bed, please answer the questions and write down your impressions of this day.

An early morning, a lot of bus driving, visiting places like Kranj and its tunnels, the Planica ski jump, sport activity (snowball and "snowbaths" were very popular again!!), Kranjska gora, Bled and its castle, lake, island and a delicious cake.
We had a great, sunny day together, with a few complications (Chloe we hope you'll feel better soon!), a lot of singing, laughing and bonding. Thank you all for this wonderful day.
