Well, hello. I have been having a fantastic time here at The Crossing. There is a total of thirteen students, ages ranging from 17 to 22. This past week has been amazing, we're practically already family, and it feels like its been weeks rather than days. I got on the bus from the hostel on monday at 9:30 in the morning, tentatively scoping out the other passengers, wondering who were my fellow students. We had a few hour ride in which mostly other Kiwi passengers talked. We all piled out at Geraldine and waited in the windy weather for our ride to the crossing. Jordan, who had been here the year before was letting us know how most everything worked. We mostly just stood around and had a few bits of conversation concerning names, where we were from, why we came, etc. We got a ride from Gen to the Crossing, where we had our first meal. It was lunchtime, and we had stuffed potatoes. Cheese and potato and goodness. I'll never forget that meal. Delish. The other students showed up a little later in the afternoon and we played a few games, which was super fun. I taught them the three objects game, which they were irritated by. Props to Andy for teaching us all on the jr high float trip when I was in 6th or 7th grade.
Alright. I wrote this a few days ago, haven't gotten around to posting it till now. Here you go
