Today, our group set out independently for our first outing without our Swiss hosts! We went to Lausanne, a French-speaking city in the southern region of Switzerland. This week, it has been much cooler in Switzerland than back in Boston, and today we started out with quite cool weather, but the forecasted rain showers did not materialize. We all enjoyed the sunny weather, which warmed us and brightened our spirits!
Our main event in Lausanne was the Olympic Museum. We walked from the train station about half a mile to the museum, which is beautifully situated on the shore of Lake Geneva, with the Alps on the far shore in the background. Stunning!
RMHS students have not had many opportunities for field trips, especially during the past three years, and we all learned a lot about traveling as a group today. It is not easy to travel to a foreign country, and traveling in a large group is a completely different story! The students did a great job!
Finally, here is a quick video report from Maya and Sophia:
