The Turtle Always Wins

After a long week of working hard, we had a little time to play.

We met early in the morning to finalize plans for the project before everyone took off for the weekend, and then we set out for some fun in the sun....Canoeing down the Elster River.

It started as a sweet innocent canoe trip along the beautiful canal behind our apartments, but then developed into a little something more...as would any water event where boys are involved.

Introducing, the Tortoise...
And the Hare...
It started some some innocent splashing...

Then some ambushes...

Then some tippie canoe...
Followed by revenge!
If we had to end up in the River, the boys were coming down with us.

They Turtle might seem slow and weak in the beginning, but he Always wins the race!
Poor Boys...
Don't worry, we all made it back safely
After cleaning up, we headed for a tour of Amazon, and had a great time learning about the different processes that our good go through before landing on our doorstep. We saw the delivery and shipment stations, as well as the sorting and picking lines.

It was amazing to see how much of the process was done by people instead of machines! Our tour there was very informative, and Amazon seems like a great company!

Today, we are headed to Rome for the Weekend! It's going to a wonderful experience full of history and excitement! We'll be back on Sunday for more work work work, and then give our final presentation to the Eagles on Tuesday Morning!

We'll be seeing you all soon, Less than a week!

Love, Jenny
