Wow. Just wow. This trip was three months in the thinking/planning/making, and we were rewarded with an incredible experience that the kids will be talking about for years to come, I’m sure.

I submitted my final exam for my course yesterday, and my lecturer kindly marked it asap and I got my results back today…. and I have officially passed the whole course!!
