Day 5

We woke up into a nice cloudless morning, but soon some clouds appeared. It was quite cold. We met in front of the school and left to Beestenmarkt, where students took the tour they had translated the previous day. They walked through the streets of Leiden in groups.

After the lunch break, we met at boat rental. The students went rowing through the canals. Here are some photos:
