The last full day for the students was the big “fun day” at King’s Island amusement park. I didn’t take my camera for a couple of reasons; it was 99 degrees and I just didn’t want to lug it around in the huge place.
Let me get right to the point, I don’t like heights, and wouldn’t ride most of the rides. I did go up the Eiffel Tower and rode the Train. Yay! All hail the brave American! And I walked about 300 miles in the 99 dgeree heat (before heat index). The students had a great time, but without pictures you are just going to have to take my word on it.
When we returned at the end of the long hot day, the students were looking forward to going inside and relaxing in their air conditioned apartments. Much to their surprise, the university maintenance crews had changed the lock and they couldn’t get in. This ended up costing us all an extra hour while we waited for someone to fix the problem, and it was the first time I’ve seen any of the Japanese students get cranky. I can’t blame them; I was cranky too by that time.
