Although an annual trip isn't possible this November, I made a mini-video to remember fondly of our day in the park. One of the best days of my life.. so far. :)

With this, the others gather their thoughts and suddenly it’s a shouting match. No one can agree, for every student there’s a final answer. It's a song, a prayer, I mean a promise, like a wedding ring, and later a baby. Or what’s that p
