Helen went on my dream field trip today with her German class.....
She met Rosemarie and Johannes von Trapp and heard the story of their lives --how the family fled Austria, life in Vermont, all about their music.
Rosemarie von TrappThen they hiked up to the chapel Werner built in thanksgiving for coming back from WW II safely.
Finally, they sat down to an Austrian meal with some of the *very* handsome Swiss kitchen staff who conversed with them in German :)
That is SO cool!
wow, that is really amazing! I'd love to go on a field trip like that myself! :-)
This is a test. I hear that it has been difficult to comment on my blog. I hope I fixed it. Let me know! Sarah
Wow! I have been meaning to put their books on our read aloud list. I hear they are quite inspirational.
