Thank you Mr Cageao for a truly awesome trip!! Also Thank you to Mrs Riggs, Miss Monsauret and Mr Kehoe, to European Study Tours, to all our lovely guides and of course to our pupils and parents without whom it wouldn't have been possible! Have a lovely Christmas!
Meal at the classic American dinner Big Daddy's followed by a visit to the Empire State building which offered a stunning view of New York skyline at night. We enjoyed pinpointing all the sites we visited during our stay in the Big Apple.
Lunch at Grand Central Station followed by a extremely interesting and poignant visit to the UN headquarters. Our fantastic guide told us Cheam children were the most intellectual group he'd ever had and asked for the address of Cheam for the education of his own children!
Enough walking? Alright then, let's get a limousine to take us to the NBA game! Children treated to a luxurious ride by a very generous parent. Certainly one of the highlights of their time in New York.
Quick stop by the candy shop before visiting the NBC Studios this morning (no photos or videos allowed unfortunately). Visit to the Rockefeller Center "top of the Rock" for an incredible view of New York City. Blue skies and sun!
Another long walk to visit the Brooklyn Bridge and a stroll through China Town and Little Italy. Despite our sore little feet we've managed to clock another 16,000 steps! :-O
Met Museum followed by a very long walk (under the rain :-( ) back to the hotel. Despite the 26, 000 + steps done today, the children did not complain once! Real little troopers! Very proud of them once again!
And finally, after a long walk to the restaurant, we got rewarded by our first American burger! Great first day for the children who kept in good spirits despite the tiredness. Ready for bed!!
@CheamSchool 5BM and 6ARo sharing their amazing, awesome and Oh so clever 'Choose Your Own Adventure' stories that they have been working on in English.
