ROCKLAND- The Rockland High School Travel Club went on a 10-day trip to Europe over April break.
They left Friday, April 18, and returned Sunday, April 28.
“Even though traveling was pretty tiring, it was really cool seeing all the different views, especially while driving through Wales,” stated junior Kyara Williams
On the tour, the group visited Ireland, France, Wales, and England.
They visited St. Patrick’s Cathedral, Conwy Castle, Big Ben, Anne Hathaway’s cottage, and Shakespeare's birthplace.
“I really liked going to Paris because I had never been to Paris before, and so I really liked how the weather was really nice when we were in Paris, and I liked seeing all of the classic destinations in Paris,” described Ms. Julia Dicanzio, Science Department Chair and chaperone.
On the trip, there were 5 chaperones and 31 students.
“My favorite place that I visited was either London or Paris because the architecture was surreal,” explained junior Kayla Shubert
Many students also got the chance to try new food such as stew, snails, and duck.
English teacher Ms. Kristen Walsh, who runs the RHS travel club, planned and ran this event.
