Then it was time to go .....

Our last day meant saying good-bye to our hosts who had looked after us so well. Then we had a guided tour of Miami before boarding the plane home .....

There'll be more pics very soon!

We're all home safe and well, but the blog editor got well delayed on his own home run, so no new pics right now - there will be more very soon, so please keep checking!

We're Coming Home!

We left Watford Gap Services at 12.45pm and expect to arrive at the Botanical Gardens at around 2pm.

Then we returned for the official school photo

The Shopathon continues ...

We then made it to 'The Nook' for shopping

Someone looks geared up ready to go .....

..... and then we hit the Mall - and our purses!

Sheffield School Students Meet the Head

Our students met the Head of the Benjamin School, Mr Goldberg who welcomed us in his office and the tour continued .......

Our Last Full Day at the Benjamin School

Today we toured the Lower and Middle School campus and had a chance to visit the School shop - the Nook.

We did finally get to the University!!!

Yes, we finally got to the University to have our talk and the tour, but not many photos of the tour because, as you know, they can all get a bit samey!!

We're still on the beach enjoying the sunshine!!

More from our day at Boca Raton

As you can see, even the staff got in on the beach action, albeit in a restrained way .......

... whilst the girls were clearly a little less restrained ......!

Our Day at Florida Atlantic University

Today we've been to Florida Atlantic University at Boca Raton, south of Palm Beach. We arrived a little early and had time to go on to the beach there ......

Then we had an introductory talk at the University followed by a tour .......

More from our day in School .....

Our Day In School

We have had a full day of lessons today and a chance for a photo shoot of Academic Dean of the Benjamin School, Ken Didsbury officially greeting our own Head, Valerie Dunsford at the School.

We also had the chance to take a photo of the boards showing the School's core values ....

We're off to school today

Today we are in school for lessons - to see how it's done US style. We aren't sure if we will be able to do photos in class - we'll try though .....

Jupiter Lighthouse and Museum

After lunch came our last visit of the day - to the lighthouse at Jupiter and the Museum.

Time for a short spell on the beach

We had a little time left after lunch to enjoy the beach - and the weather!

We love your comments!

The girls and staff out here in Florida love to read your comments on the blog - so please keep them coming ......

More from the Marine Life Center plus lunch

At the Loggerhead Marine Life Center (click on the www.marinelife.org link on the right hand sidebar to read more on the centre) we had a mini lecture about turtles - how they live and breed and the threats they are subject to. We also went down to the beach area where the femlaes lay their eggs. We saw the various tanks where the injured and sick turtles were being cared for and then we went off for our picnic near the beach ....

Grace is indeed alive and well!!

In response to recent concerns, we are glad to confirm that Grace is alive and well and currently on an exchange visit with the Benjamin School in Florida .....!!

This has been our local visits day

We've had another great day with fantastic sunny weather.

First of all we did our photo shoot outside the Benjamin School as a record of our visit. Then we went on local visits, first of all to the Loggerhead Marine Life Center to see how they help to rehabilitate injured and sick turtles. After that it was a picnic lunch near the beach followed by a visit to Jupiter Lighthouse, the oldest structure in the area.

The last ones!
