INTERNATIONAL TRAVELERS

We officially became international travelers with our last field trip of the school year to Victoria, Canada.


                                             Starting with an early morning ferry ride.......




We left the clouds behind in the U.S. .......



and arrived in beautiful Victoria, B.C.................






                                                  We had a group planning session.................


                           
                                         And headed off to see the sights......



                                                    Our first stop was the Craigdarroch Castle.




          The next stop was the Royal British Columbian Museum that held a wide variety of things to see.







   After eating dinner at the Spaghetti Factory (on the left), we finally got to the,  "best part of the whole trip".



 The whole reason for traveling across the border to another country. The hotel swimming pool, of course!





                                                     The next day we visited  the Bug Zoo,





                                    saw a Canadian Duck,



                                           a Canadian street corner protest,



                                            and posed for some more pictures.



                                  Then it was time to get back on the ferry for the long ride home.

Jesus, Friend of Sinners by Casting Crowns

Jesus, friend of sinners, we have strayed so far away
We cut down people in your name but the sword was never ours to swing
Jesus, friend of sinners, the truth's become so hard to see
The world is on their way to You but they're tripping over me
Always looking around but never looking up I'm so double minded
A plank eyed saint with dirty hands and a heart divided

Oh Jesus, friend of sinners
Open our eyes to the world at the end of our pointing fingers
Let our hearts be led by mercy
Help us reach with open hearts and open doors
Oh Jesus, friend of sinners, break our hearts for what breaks yours http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B9Kcm2OAWNA
