Fabulous Times at Iguassu Falls

After leaving our friends in Ribeirao Preto, our Brazil delegation headed south to Iguassu Falls, on the border of Brazil, Argentina and Paraguay. It is an extraordinary place filled with biodiversity, natural wonders and man-made wonders. We are just about to depart Brazil but here are some photos of our wonderful weekend in Iguassu. The photos are from the Itaipu hydroelectric dam, the waterfalls at Iguassu National Park and the Bird Park. It was a marvelous experience!!








































Oh the thrill of Brazil - How glorious it has been!! See you soon in Big D!

Goodbye tears all over the world

Some things, like love and friendship, are universal and transcend culture... Because our exchanges are all about relationships. a sure sign of their success is the MANY tears that are shed at the end when it is time to say goodbye to the host families who have opened their homes and hearts to our students. This spring break, it seems we had an abundance of tears and an abundance of love - all over the world. We cannot thank our host families enough for all of the kindness and care that they shared with our students. Below are a few goodbye photos from each delegation.
