The next day, we woke up early(ouch!) and all carpooled to a zip lining and conference facility in the redwoods, where we spent the day in an orientation and zip lining.
In the morning, all of the outbounds had our first orientation where we were given all sorts of pertinent information about prepping for our exchanges, as well as our host country assignments: a big research paper about our host countries. It will be a lot of work, but I'll sure arrive in Italy knowing all sorts of random info!
In the afternoon, the outbounds split into three groups to go on a zip lining canopy tour. It was a lot of fun and gave us a great chance to get to know each other even better.
