Satisfying their thirst, Seniors Jim Ford and Jen- nifer Johnson sample water from one of the many drink- ing fountains on the streets of Paris. Memories that last Gallivanting around Central students could be found in air- port terminals, train stations, and rest stops all over the globe last summer. Chris Kramer, junior, who spent his summer in various locations throughout Europe, said H . . . traveling provides us with a wealth of learning and experiences that benefit us the rest of our livesf' After viewing the 23rd Olympiad in Los Angeles, California, Russ Foster, sen- ior, said The international aura watching the competition is an experience I won't forget. Other students, some on vacation with their families, saw a sampling of vacation spots- Yellowstone, Disneyland, and other national sites. Of course there re- mained the old favorite of going to stay with relatives. Whatever the case or place, what remained was in photographs to be looked at and relived for years and years. Some students labored diligently at their jobs since gallavanting about the world was not high on their list of sum- mer's priorities.

Their experiences, though they may not have left Colorado, were travels into the adult world of responsibility. Probably the most common summer pastimes was spending lazy days gazing at favorite soap opera stars, hanging out with friends, frequenting fast food places and various malls. These students who participated in these activities, too, traveled into the realm of a special world known as com- panionship that was never forgotten. There was a bit of confusion as to the moving of the Fourth of July fireworks from Del Mar Park. No notice was given to the majority of the crowd, to most the change in plans was quite an inconve- nience. A spokesperson for Aurora Jay- cees, host of the annual celebration said the move was made because of crowd safety, the people often sat too close to the shooting grounds. But for most teens a slight change in plans only lended a little excitement in an otherwise hum-drum summer. Central students can grow on the memories from their travels whether ex- ternal or internal and that will provide a sturdy base for their futures.
