Today started off with a tour of the three Oregon Shakespeare Festival theaters in Ashland. We could only take pictures of the outdoor theater.
The students (especially the girls) were excited to see that the actor who played Puck in A Midsummer Night's Dream was our tour guide!After the tour, we had a chance to walk around town on our own for a while--students unhindered by chaperones, and chaperones unhindered by students! Both groups behaved reasonably well, by all accounts.
We had about an hour before we needed to get ready for dinner, so we stopped in the Science Observatory, a hands-on museum in Ashland. They had a whole room devoted to making massive soap bubbles, which Anna thoroughly enjoyed. After a light dinner at Sizzler, we went out for a night of rollerskating. It was obvious by the amount of bruises that this was the first time for many, but all ended the night with smiles on their faces. (And brought back memories for a few teachers!)
