Reflections from Anne Olson - August 2nd

Note....Anne is teaching photography classes on this trip.

The photography composition classes have been enjoyable and rewarding. The children enter the classroom ready and eager to learn. Each pupil had a portrait taken. As the Kosovar children become acquainted with American adults, waves, "hi," and hugs abound. We've become SO close to these children in less than a week. The volunteers you the from the Shropshire Music Foundation are so helpful to translate and be of assistance.

The terrific heat takes a toll on all of us but nobody wants to give up any activity because of heat. What a rewarding experience to be part of!
