Parlez-Vous Prangais? Habla Espanol? No matter which language you speak, touring in Quebec or Spain is an enioyable experience. Within a week's time the Spain group found that many expressions are international. Along with memories of bull fights, discotheques, and small boutiques, they brought back numerous memories of their new-found amigos. A week had never passed so fast! Though they were homesick, everyone hated to leave. The French students discovered a new and fasci- nating culture during their stay in Quebec. Although they were only a few hundred miles away, they felt as though they were in the center of the French culture. Elegant dinners in castles, horse and buggy rides, and, getting to know peo- ple of all ages, were lust a few things that made the trip complete. Top: Visiting St. Anne de Beaupre is a sure highlight of the Quebeck trip. left: The Spain group fit right in the Spanish customs at the bullfight. right: Churches of every shape and form were found in Quebec! 76 Activities Y.

A Pause for Reflection gn-I . iz. The atmosphere of a retreat appears impossi- ble to attain any other way except to gather stu- dents and adults in the presence of God. Powers' religious education department spon- sored several extremely meaningful retreats this fall and winter. Two weekends in the fall were set aside for seniors and senior honors students, respectively. February 2nd gathered the sopho- more girls together for a short weekend with modern day morals and values for women as the topic of discussion. The retreat has come to be an experience in living and department heads look forward to many more opportunities such as these for the students. , , 2- ox. ' Qld .
