Down in the Valley

One important part of the curriculum here at Woodstock is the outdoor education program. Yesterday, we didn't have classes in the middle school so that all of the students could get outdoors on a hike. We decided to take our advisor group on a hike down to the town of Thatyur. We started with a quick bus ride to the trail head and then had a long walk down hill.

We did get some great views of the Himalayas along the way.

It was a very nice walk with lots of animals and vistas as we went.

After a couple hours of hiking, we stopped for lunch. Some of our students enjoyed their sandwiches more than others.

The final descent into Thatyur gave us more pretty scenery as we looked down the valley.

Even though two of our advisees were missing for the day, we took the opportunity to get a great group picture.

Though we definitely miss Chicago, there is no we would ever get a view like this in the Midwest. Again, for a couple more pictures, you can check out our website.
