August 4th

Today started with being woken up at 7:15 by the Rotex, to get ready for the day and breakfast. I did my hair, brushed my teeth, and got dressed. We did head count then headed out to breakfast, where we were met with the usual breakfast. Which is bread, butter, a type of jam, milk, juice, water, porridge, and cereal. I don’t quite remember what I had.

We were done with breakfast by 8:17 so, we waited in the lobby until it was time to go into the Hall where we would be told today’s activities. So the info for todays activities was at 8:45 and after that we headed to lesson, where we dealt with the alphebet and numbers. Finnish letters are quite hard for me to pronounce since they are nothing like French and German (well the G is prounoced very closely like the German pronunciation of G). We played a few games and had khaki break ofcourse.

After we finished all of our lessons, we had a lecture to go to which today was “School in Finland”. Where we were told about their education system and how their school works and stuff. After the lecture we had dinner which was pretty good tongiht. After dinner a Rotary guy came to talk to us, but it was only like 7 minutes. Following that Olivia and I walked around Karkku and took pictures (which are below). After pictures we came back to get ready for Sauna and then I released I lost my phone and couldn’t find it, I took all my clothes out my suitcase and my room was a mess but luckily I did find it. It was under one of my suitcases -.-

Tonight our evening snack was crepes by the lake. They were pretty good. I talked to more new people. Then at 8:30 it was my groups turn to head to the Sauna! We were in the Sauna from 8:30-9 tonight and of course it was amazinggg. Then I came back and had a shower and went back out to the lake/sauna area and hung out for the last 30 minutes.

Today was great!
