Another day in paradise



After Marty completed her early morning walk (7-8 miles), the team settled down to breakfast.  The journal was messaged and the day followed.

The free time beckoned the girls walk into town; they bought some jewelry and had coffee on the beach.  Karl retreated to the library and reviewed a book.  The team rested-up for a well proportioned lunch, completing some lesson planning along the way.


A heavy lunch ensured.  Then more free time for lesson planning, reading and news updates.  The afternoons are delightful.  Karl felt brave and took a shower followed by a “short” nap.  Marty and Cathy prepared games for the students.  We were all ready for the kids…were they ready for us!  Or how many words drawn from “encompassed”, Leah and Gabriella were tied at 51.  In Scrabble, Anthony (the defending champion) faced a challenge.  After a hard fought contest, he retained his title –“Champion of the World”!



Following the session with the students, Cathy continued her nightly English lesson plan with the hotel staff while Karl and Marty conversed with Nikos and his wife on language and geography.



The discussion that was planned on culture will take place next week.
