Teachers Day Out (Part II)

The bridge over the river Napo is pictured here. I thought at first it was a footbridge. I believe this is the last bridge crossing for some time. Few people have cars so the traffic is not a problem on a single lane bridge.

In Tena, later in the day, we saw a guy selling crabs out of a cart. You could smell them before you could see them.

The teachers group did what all staff do on an outing. Relax, be silly and have a good time. The swimming was in a river at Tena.


Some people just wanted to lay back and relax. No problem with doing that either.



You were allowed to bring immediate family along on the trip. This teacher brought her two children.

It was too hot to play volleyball on a near by sand court. So, playing in the river was the next best thing.
Today we had another half day of teacher day celebration at the school. Tomorrow some pictures from that event. (We just have got to learn how to celebrate more in the US!)

Yes, we need to learn how to celebrate more on contract days.

I am sure you have read that the legislature is about to require a prescribed core curriculum for our schools here in Iowa. Don
