All of us were prepared for our presentations in the English Classes when arriving at school and then this happened..... It was "Abistreich" day - something equivalent to our senior prank 😃. The 12th grade classes had "barricaded" all hallways, and the entire school gathered in the courtyard where water balloons, water guns, confetti, face painting and other shenanigans kept everyone away from their classes until about 10:30 - at which point only Mary Claire, Taylor and Robbie were able to share their presentations with the 7th graders and the rest of us opted for a stroll into the city and an early lunch.
After lunch we walked the short kilometer to the Leipzig Zoo where we met up with all of the American and German students. A local newspaper interviewed Maggie and Charlotte about the GAPP exchange and we had our picture taken - see below :-) then we explored the zoo - some were brave to go on a simulated ride through the Serengeti and some took the boat tour through Gondwanaland- a tropical rain forest with flora and fauna of Africa, Asia and South America.
