So Much Fun


Things are going along smoothly, but the kids are getting less and less enthusiastic about English. For the first  hour I was with Dorota and we played 20 Questions to wake them up. And it worked! 20 Questions was a big hit!!  For the second hour,  I went to Grandma’s class and we walked around Reymontowka, identifying landmarks and different buildings in English and Polish. Later, we drew maps. For third hour, I went back to Dorota and we played Apples to Apples, which is very populalr among the teachers and campers. And, last, Grandma gave a presentation about Washington, D.C. during the last hour.

After lunch, instead of going to theatre, art, dance and sports we went into Siedlce. We had lots of fun. Charlotte and I finished getting gifts for our friends and Charlotte got brand new shoes.  Once we all finished shopping we went to Dorota’s mother’s house, which was terrific. We had delicious homemade Charlotteka, an apple cake,  orange juice and fresh fruit. We even got to bring some back to Reymontowka for dessert.  Then, after all the chatting was done and none of us were hungry for dinner, we went home to Reymontowka and to our surprise, we ate a large amount of warm potato pancakes with delicious mushroom gravy. Mmmmmmmm.  Soon we will go to a bonfire and roast marshmallows. So much food. So much fun.
