They’ve been almost everywhere and have lived to tell about their adventure! “It was really difficult to order food or even water in a restaurant.” Last April vacation, senior Andrew Thomas went to Europe with a group from Attleboro High School. There they went to France, England, and St. Malo. ‘‘We spent three days in London, three in St. Malo and four in Paris.’’ Going to big places is hard with a large group of people; two of the group actually got lost for a day in Picadilly Circus, London. “I especially liked the Eiffel Tower, Mont St. Michelle in France, London’s Picadilly Circus, and St. Malo in general.” Although he doesn’t have any future plans to return, he would love to go back.

For her, it was mostly rest and relaxation. “I got my picture taken in an automatic phone booth.” Keri hopes to go back to the beach next summer. The month of July had never been more interesting for Derek Brown. The senior recently completed a tour of Europe with the Sound of America Honor Band and Chorus. Germany, Austria, France, and Switzerland are only four of the countries that they visited.” I especially liked the medieval town of Rothenburg, Germany, the Palace Versailles, the Cathedrals and Napoleon’s arch.” The group traveled to different locations and played authentic American music for public audiences. The tour wasn’t without mishaps though. ““The bus was almost in two accidents; once on a high mountain road in Switzerland and again on the busy streets of Paris.” The group was While on his trip to London, England, Andrew Thomas took this picture of Big Ben and the Parliament building along the River Thames. During their trip to Virginia, juniors Elizabeth Tucker, Christine Fontes, Lisa Ferland and Karyn Conlon stopped to visit Mount Vernon. made up of one hundred and twenty people who have special musical talents. ‘‘There were all types on it. Most of the singers were athletes. I’d definitely go again. I would like to go soon, probably this summer.” Do you think the Aussies miss her? Tara McLean travelled down under last August as a chaperone with her sister’s gymnastic team from the Gymnastic Academy of Boston. Among other things, she went to the top of a mountain on a sightseeing tour. ‘““You could see for miles. It was a beautiful sight.” The Australian people live in a slightly different world than we do “TI liked comparing how different the U.S. and Australia are; like the signs — kangaroo crossing — and how everything is done in the metric system. Also, all of their construction trucks are pink!” Tara had such a good time she enthusiastically wants to go back down under! Oklahoma, here she comes!

She also traveled to Pike’s Peak and drove in Oklahoma’s panhandle. “There wasn’t anything on the panhandle for miles and miles — all we could see was dust.’ The McHoul family also went to the Royal Gorge, Seven Falls, and the Indian Cliff Dwellings all in Colorado. ‘‘“My brothers and sisters and I fought a lot in the car, too.”” Deana is probably going back next year to visit relatives. “It’s a lot of fun.” Our students aren’t confined to the Attleboro area!
