On Monday the teachers arrived and we just introduced each other, walked through the city and showed them the most important places.
Moreover the teachers prepared their homerooms and also on Tuesday they had some time to do so, before they went to the Hill of Crosses. As far as I know they enjoyed visiting it but also they have been happy when they could leave this wired place again.
On Wednesday the camp started!
As I had no idea of how this camp will be I was nearly as excited as the students.
During the first days of the camp we had already a lot of fun while getting to know each other and a lot of new friendships were built.
Not just the students but also I learned already some things about the USA I did not know before.
For instance:
Did you know that...?
- ... Florida's Length North to South is around 447 miles (720km)
- ...if you would spend one night in every room, in every hotel in Disney world , it would take you around 68 years!
- ...s'mores and Reese's are AMAZING!
- ...measured by only land area, the United States is third in size behind Russia and China, just ahead of Canada (which means around 150 times Lithuania)
- ...in America they do not really use public transport that much
on the facebook page you can always find a lot of pictures!!

... AND on the weekend I went together with the teachers and students helpers to Palanga and we visited the cold war museum.
It was a wonderful day and again a unique experience for me! THANKS GUYS!
