Day 33 - Stanton Elementary, Washington, DC

We saw 133 little ones (kindergarteners, first and second graders) that were among the most enthusiastic and appreciative we've seen to date. Our contact, the science teacher, Hardett Taylor-Brown was most gracious and provided a terrific spread for lunch. It refused to rain, so all six classes were able to participate. We've been incredibly lucky as far as the weather is concerned: No rainouts of the program. It has rained only a couple of timesw during the entire trip and then it was on travel days.

We got to see some of the sights in DC, including the remarkable FDR Memorial...DC at night is a special place and hopefully the children at Stanton Elementary will be able to enjoy the unique things their city has to offer.

Today DC, tomorrow the world. Well, New Jersey anyway.
