The most beautiful city I have ever seen IRL, Bruges, Belgium 🇧🇪. A UNESCO 🌍 Heritage site. The smell of waffles was in the air! Lunch in a home from 15th century w a live band 🎸. During WWII, the Germans had HQ next door. @ChathamCentral @LindbladExp @NatGeoEducation #GTF2020

2 students came to my 2nd p. Taught them in fall. "Mrs King. Can u PLEASE explain the Russia/Ukraine thing?" So I stopped. Taught it again. Wondering. If I offered to any Ss who wanted to come, "I'll be in auditorium @ 1 to explain it" how many would show?? Kids want to know.
