Miss Lucía, from Santiago de Chile, the lady who started this whole Exchange, and her 2 teens, were in Maine for vacation (their summer vacation) to visit the Host Family in Manchester (southwest of Augusta) with whom Lucía lived those couple of decades ago as an exchange student. The visit was wonderful, and her son and daughter got to attend school and meet new friends, and she got caught up on old relationships. The skiing, however, left MUCH to be desired this year here in Maine.
Some of us who had gone to Chile got a chance to visit with them one afternoon here in the Old Port. We had a great lunch at Sebago Brewery Restaurant, then went for ice cream. 4 of the McAuley girls came and had a great time, as well as Ms. Glass and Mrs. Finnerty from Cheverus, and Mrs. Dubreuil from McAuley. It was a great way to keep in touch and keep all the relationships alive!
New students from Chile will be coming to Maine on March 18. Some to McAuley and others to Cheverus. Check our NEW McAuley BLOG for that experience. And always remember to check McAuley Webshots for tons of photos!
