On Thursday evening we went to Alice's elementary school's second annual international fair. It was fantastic. I mean, it wasn't actually enjoyable, as nothing with kids ever is, but it was a fantastic concept. Each class made a poster about a country and parent volunteers from those countries brought in food and other items to contribute to the display. What a wonderful way to celebrate our country's (and her school's) diversity!
Alice's class did Palestine, and Alice's particular research topic appeared to be on the Jordan River.
We didn't get to go around much because kids, but we stayed in the cafeteria where Alice could run around with her friends and Simon could do crafts. When the kids are a bit older, it will be more fun and we'll get to walk around and read the posters. But at least we got to eat some good food!
