Our first day

After a long trip, which included connecting flights and almost no sleep, we arrived at Philladelphia on a rainy day, but the one we have been looking forward for many weeks. Feeling really nervous, excited, and trying to picture our hosts, we could finally meet them. They were very kind, nice and friendly with us, and some of them even joined us for lunch time. Afterwards, we went on a tour through the school: Jack Barrack Hebrew Academy. We learned that it is a very big, different and beautiful jewish school. Something that called our attention was the gym, that looked like a movie court. Everyone we met gave us a warm welcome and made us feel very well and comfortable. We enjoyed ourselves a lot today and we are very excited to see what will happen tomorrow...

This is the school bus that brought us from the airport to school.
