Summer Solstice / June 21st
Authored By:
Wow! What a difference a day brings. We had a very wet and wild boat ride on the canals in Amsterdam yesterday. Today is sunny and gorgeous. A perfect day to enjoy the Summer Solstice.
Smart City teens have been learning amazing information about Sustainable Goals and more, through videos, games, lectures and excursions. This is just day two of actual classes. Katie is a fantastic instructor and Julian a wonderful guide. We have also started some Dutch language classes. We even manage to spend some time touring the museums and sights of Amsterdam. Today we visited the National Maritime Museum. Our guides helped us understand the Golden Age of the Netherlands.
Enjoy photos and videos of our first few days!
