back to school

BACK TO SCHOOL

This is my first day photo! You can't really see, but my hair is dyed blue at the bottom. I go to Ambrit International School and yes, they speak English there. I'm in class 3L and my best friend is named Martha. My teacher's name is Ms. Anne-Marie. My favorite subject is music and ICT (iPads and computers).


This is us waiting at the bus stop. It takes forever for the 710 to come.


This is Benny's first day photo. He goes to Ambrit school too, but it's in a different building and it's called Ambrit EC which stands for early childhood. His best friend's name is Tamo and her sister Vega is a close friend of mine. I don't know what his favorite subject is, but he did squish grapes with his feet to make wine the other day, so that's a start.


Ostia



OSTIA

We went to Ostia, a small town outside of Rome. It's actually an archeological site from 1st century AD (we think). You get to see the whole town. You get to run around and jump on stuff. We got to see some sites that would not normally be open to the public.


This is a birds-eye view looking down off the top of what used to be the baths. It's a picture of me (Hannah), Silas, Henry and Jeremy (their dad).



This is Benny near an ancient fire station. You can see the tracks for the fire wagon wheels to come out of the garage.



We ate lunch on the steps of an ancient temple to Ceres.


This is the roof of what would have been an apartment building. The gate you can see is not part of what you could see in the first century AD (obviously).


This is Henry and me jumping over a giant crack in the ground.


I took these ones:






But Dad took this one.
