Day 26th, Jan 26th

Today we went to an elementary school in Orebro! We had so much fun! When we first got there we were supposed to meet the teacher whose class we were working in in the teacher's lounge... in typical Kelsey and Brittany fashion, we got lost. This school was like a maze! We wondered around for at least 10 minutes before she found us in the hallway and saved us from having to ask for directions. 
First we went into two 6th grade class rooms... The kids were really shy and didn't ask us a single question. We stood in the front of each class for around 20 minutes and rambled on about the States while the teachers interjected to ask their own questions. 
After the 6th grade classes we were taken to a 4th grade class, this is what we were so excited for! The class had only been learning English for a year, yet they held up actual conversations with us, asked great questions, and got our lame jokes. They seemed genuinely interested in what we had to say, they were always attentive! At one point they stopped asking questions to sing us a Beatles song! They were so cute!! We even got invited to see one of their hockey games!
Here's us with the class!


After we talked with the classes we had a really nice Fika with the teacher and talked about everything under the sun. 


Later, we met up with some of our Swedish friends to go to a Swedish rap concert. Petter was the main artist. The concert was... interesting, not really anything like concerts back in the States, but fun none the less.
