Our sixth day in NY - Saturday




Today no classes- We went to the MOMA






This is one of the many Picassos we could see there.



And also Van Gogh



A bit of rest after the tour

Our fith day in New York

We have two good pieces of news to tell you: One is that our project Light and Darkness has been awarded with the Sello Europeo and the other one is that Marc is feeling better.







At long last here she is: The statue of Liberty





















As you can see the teachers look quite right! Surviving!





























This is Ellis Island where all the migrants had to wait to be distributed through the country. We were very impressed.
















It was so hot that we stayed in the shade on our way back in the boat.
















As usual they are all safe and sound!

Our fourth day in New York





As you see by their faces, they are happy in class





Brooklyn Bridge fullfilled our expectations. We were thrilled and took a million pictures.



Who did Rachel say the engineer was?








This is the photo of the day in the middle of the bridge. Rachel is on the right hand side dressed in green.






In Brooklyn we had a rest looking at the skyline.

How interested they look listening to Rachel's explanation!




We took some pictures at the statue of Confucius




We visited a Buddhist temple and






ended it up at Columbus Park where the Chinese community goes to relax and play mahjong.

We appreciate your comments of encouragement. The teachers

We loved the dinosaurs






And exhausted, we took a break at the museum steps. Everybody was there except ...







They were concentrated in the fossils and met them at Central Park








This is the Flat iron building. One of our schools is close to this excellent building

Our first day in New York















At last we are in the Big Apple!
More exactly at Madison Square Park. As you can see we are all safe and sound. Hopefully everyone is there we haven't counted them.


The weather is fine and we look beautiful!


This is the view we had from the Empire State Building








We could not skip taking a placement test for the classes and that's why we look so interested.
