The countdown begins. It’s May 3rd and on June 4th we leave for Europe. We will be busy this next month continuing with our preparations for travel. We’ve turned in all our homework assignments with exception to the final essay due upon our return. In the meantime, I wanted to share a story about three fellow classmates.
Take a look at the attached photo.
Featured from left to right are Rachel, Janna
and Jake. Now when I saw them in class (and they always sit together) I noticed
they were dressed in red, white and blue.
My next thought was, how fitting,
they are representing the American flag.
But then, I thought, they should have all worn green instead because
they are all from Wall, Texas.
What
makes this even more interesting is that they are related, well almost all
related. Please take a look at Janna—she’s
the one raising her hand. Janna is the link
here. Let me see if I can explain it
clearly. Janna and Rachel are cousins and Janna and
Jake are cousins, but Rachel and Jake are not related. You could easily get confused. Originally I thought Janna and Rachel were
sisters because they share the same last name and that Jake was their
cousin. I was wrong. That
may explain why I don’t think they look alike either.
But anyway, I thought it was a fun story. I got them to smile and wave for the camera. I’ll be sure to get more photos as they travel
with me. Maybe they will inspire everybody else from
Wall to travel to Europe next year. You
know, start a trend or even better, create a challenge to see how many more
students from Wall will sign up that are related and can outnumber this
trio. It’s worth a try don’t you think?
