This morning was the last event for the group from East Lothian before these ambassadors of goodwill take a well earned rest … and what a last event it actually was. Finally they got to meet the other school children from Barga and exchange songs, some words, banners, presents and so much goodwill the air was humming with positive vibrations. The politicians had their big day yesterday, today it was children power and they took it in both hands.
The next time you read “school exchange visit” in an article remember some of the images here (and in the photo – album) and try and get to an idea of just how well these things can work given the will by the participating people. A great success on all sides. A wonderful day.
