Continuing from the last entry.
I had two weeks of school, then I went to Intro Camp with the 150 other Rotary Exchange students. It was a lot of fun. There are 52 kids from the USA, but were out numbered my the 30 or so Brazilians (yes I know that technically we out number the brazilians but they are always 50 million times louder, and way more patriotic than us). There are 4 girls from Japan, 1 girl from Taiwan, 1 from Lithuania, 1 from France, 10 Canadians, 30 Latinos, *not all numbers are exact. Introcamp was one week long, we had Danish lessons almost everyday for several hours and we took 2 trips. One trip to Viborg to see a really old church where all important decisions regarding the monarchy used to take place. On the other trip we went to Århus, the second largest city in Denmark. We went to the Aros art museum and spent the rest of the day shopping. After that it was back to school for me. Then last weekend was our Rotary District conference I got to see all the exchange students staying in my district which is like 40 out of the 150 in all of Denmark. During the conference we were divided in to groups and went to diffrent stations where we participated in activities like Axe throwing, archery, log sawing, ropes course, and climbing poles. Later in our groups we put together 15 min skits dealing with the rotary life, my group did one on why by coming to Denmark was better than saying at home and we thanked the rotarians for hosting us but other groups did ones making fun of the rotary meetings, and on how Rotary exchange is better than AFS exchange. It was a lot of fun and very very funny.
thats all for now and now that I have caught up I will start posting weekly/byweekly
