Bus Trip -Inbounds du district 5060

Last week I went on an amazing bus trip with all the other rotary students, THE trip that we were all talking about since september.  We left from Yakima, right after the annual Rotary district 5060 conference which all of us had to attend to represent our country during a parade.

Here is the path we did, from Yakima to Kamloops with all the different stops:

For the five first nights we were hosted by Rotarians of the town we were staying in. It was great for meeting new peoples usually very interested in us and where we are from. We spent some evenings talking for hours ! There is one thing I got use to when I introduce myself  and where I am from "Marie from France",  it's the answer I get "Oh you know, I've been to Paris", pretty much everybody has been to Paris ! It's crazy !

We went rafting, swimming, tree climbing, visiting a dam... We also did an "Amazing race" in Penticton (the goal was to realize the most challenges we can and take pictures of us doing them), a paintball game, etc.... We had a very good time and I wish this week has been longer !

Here some pictures resuming the trip :

Last night all together: talent show...

...Fun...

...and very few sleep !

The last day was then the "drop off" day of every one in his home town from Kamloops all the way down to Yakima, very emotional because we know that we are never going to be all together again... Lots of tears ! But we better be happy that this year happpened instead of being sad that it's already over. One thing for sure is that we are all going to keep lifetime memories !
