Wednesday, May 30th, 2012

No one can believe that this is our last full day with the Group Study Exchange.   We took full advantage of the day starting with individualized morning activities.  We gave our last presentation at the Läkerol Arena (home to the Brynäs IF ice hockey team) to a combined audience of the Valbo and Gävle Forsbacka Rotary Clubs.  


In the afternoon, we took a tour of the The Prison Museum of Sweden. Our awesome tour was led by City Rotary Club member and Prison Museum Project Manager, Katarina Kallings.      


We had a wonderful meal and many "skoals," or Swedish toasts, during our farewell dinner.  It was a full day and we left late in the night, although, it was still somewhat light at 11 p.m.  We all had to get to bed so that we could rest before rising early the next day for our departure.
