Day 5 - Hereford, England

We started the morning with breakfast with our homestay families. Then we met up with the rest of the delegation in town.

Students had a city quest to complete in the city of Hereford. I must admit that the city was much larger than your first impression allows. Students had different points to visit with questions to answer over each point.

About halfway through our city quest we took time out to meet with the Madam Mayor. The mayor of the city only serves for one year, and it's VERY difficult to hold the job twice. While in office, the individual who is serving as mayor is also referred to as the First Citizen. People in the town consider it a great honor to serve as mayor of the city.

Dinner with the homestay families.

Tomorrow - Hereford and part of Wales
