My last day at school for now, in Iceland Nov 28/12
On my last day of school before returning to Canada, my class had a special good-bye time. We had Icelandic cookie treats, my friends told me the things they liked about me, most said I was good at soccer, dancing & fun! My teacher, Heida, gave me a nice Christmas book about the 13 Santas in Iceland - they are all trolls! For the 13 days before Christmas, each troll visits the children in Iceland with presents each night. The children leave a shoe on their windowsill at night for the present. If they haven't been 'good', they gave a potato! My teacher remembers getting a potato from a troll santa one nite, after she poured milk into her brothers boot that went sour heehee. It was sad to say 'good-bye'. Some of hugged and said we'll miss each other. I hope we come back :)
