19 January 2012: Our final Skype with the Balmville School

On our last morning in New Zealand, three students, Sharon Benzenberg (Biology), Jenn Szknolnicki (Psychology Physical Therapy), and Joe Santangelo (Business) fielded the final questions from the 3rd graders at the Balmville School.  Our students answered questions about the water bodies around New Zealand, the types of animals we've seen during our visit, and our experience on the Franz Josef Glacier.  We were joined by Mrs. Johnson, Assistant Principal at the Balmville School, who had her own questions about New Zealand!  Our experience Skyping with the Balmville School students has been terrific and I'm glad we were able to share our trip with a great bunch of students!

We're in the final packing stages right now and we're about to head to the airport so we can fly out of Christchurch.  We'll see everyone soon!
