Day 10 - Koblenz Germany

Today was one of those ever so lovely travel days. We picked up the students from their home stays. Some enjoyed it more than others, but ALL survived it. We had one minor medical incident with a student from another group. She hit her self with a door and chipped her front tooth. All was repaired by the time we got back together. You can't even tell that anything happened when looking at her. That's a major thing at this age.

After we all had our small reunion, we were off to our first stop of the day - Ruedesheim. Here we had lunch and then took a small hike (that's our delegation manager's adjective - to us it was long, and ALL uphill. But the kids had fun) to a monument at the top of a mountain vineyard where they could look down at the town. It was a beautiful view.

Again, there was a small incident while trekking through the vineyard. A student got turned over while in a port-a-potty. Only with junior high students does something like that happen. Luckily the student was unharmed, just maybe a tad smelly.

We left Ruedesheim via a river cruise down the Rhine River. We ended the day at our hotel in Koblenz Germany where we stayed for one night.
