What an adventurous day for everyone! It's our one totally free day...and then we board the plane tomorrow to return home. Can it be over already?? The time has flown by; this has been one amazing journey and the dancers and I have been blessed beyond belief with all of the memories we've made together. I am so proud of them all, they have been stellar ambassadors of the studio, and of American teens!! They have grown SO much in these last 12 days, and are ready to bring the excitement and professionalism they've discovered in themselves back to the states to share.
Parents, be ready to greet a new person, your daughter with a wider world view, coming off the plane in Oregon....much was expected of the girls, and they all rose to the occasion at every turn! They have a new appreciation for other cultures and the fact that our similarities are more important and tangible than our differences. And perhaps most importantly, America is not the only great place to live, and we don't have all the answers. Maturity and a real sense of the importance of BEING a person of compassion and collaboration with others in our world are the two things the dancers have gleaned. I will get their thoughts tonight at dinner in their own words, and post them in one final blog for you to read in about 5 hours...
So, anyway.... Here's what we did today...enjoy the pictures. Video will be posted on the studio website and on the Facebook Production and studio pages once I get home and can upload them to a real computer rather than this iPad ;). Enjoy!
