A nice start to Autumn Break

Friday was the last day of school for the first term. Now we have a week of vacation before the start of the second term. Friday during lunch we had a Halloween party for the little kids, and had fun. We played "Pin the pumpkin head on the headless horseman", listened to halloween music, ate lots of candy and played a game that involved popping lots of balloons. Here is clayt in his costume.


Then on saturday we had a teachers' picnic. We went to a really nice location in a valley with an old monastery up the hill. It was really cold however, and even snowed a little. Here are some of the photos from the day.




In the picture below you can see the ruins of where the old monastery once stood. The guide told us it was one of the many monasteries destroyed when the communist regime began.
