AIS Sixth Grade Field Trip

Up

A few pictures from Derek's sixth grade field trip to Hallstatt in September 2001.  The kids and teachers stayed in the youth hostel and hiked to the various sites, including the salt mines, Dachstein ice caves, and waterfalls.  Derek or his friends took the pictures.

Because the graveyard is so small they place the bones in the bone house after 50 years

The teachers demonstrate lyrical wit, if not a tune...
