Framlingham, Suffolk

Home stays are going well! Our delegates spent the night with British student hosts and came to school with them today.  They had an assembly, went to morning lessons, ate lunch in the canteen, then played rounders.  We're all still a little confused about the rules to rounders--it looks sort of like baseball, but innings are ended by a set amount of time rather than outs.  You can still get on base even if you don't hit the ball as long as the bowl (pitch) is within the batting area--the opposite of getting a ball! And to confuse the Yanks just a bit more, you're expected to run with the bat in hand.  We have one more night with our home stay families before heading on to Stratford-upon-Avon and Warwick Castle tomorrow.  A few students have gotten motion sickness on the bus, but we finally fixed the air flow, so hopefully stomachs will settle and we can all enjoy the scenery.
