Keeping fit in Florida

Exactly one week ago from today, I was in Florida along with 23 other students from our school. I was given the opportunity to travel abroad to learn about science and see how science is used in a favourite place of many -Disney! Although I missed 3 gym classes, I feel like I didn't miss out on the active and fit part. We were in Florida for 9 days, and I can honestly say that after every day, my feet hurt. We walked about 15 km a day, probably more because the disneyworld parks are HUGE. We were constantly on our feet, running from each attraction to the next one, and even wearing running shoes our feet were still sore! My calf and hamstring muscles were also a bit sore during the trip, so although it seemed like a "vacation", it wasn't. All 24 of us were exhausted by each end of the day. Ms Becker kept track of how much she walked throughout the trip, and it was 105.6km! I unfortunately did not keep record, but I am thinking it was close to that and probably even more. Overall, I had an amazing experience and am proud that we weren't lazy; these trips require you to be fit so that you can accomplish everything!
