As you can see from the photos we have just sent, we are having a great time and a full schedule in Morocco. The 125 degree weather of yesterday passed; thank God; and life seems easier now. Our students planted trees for their community service today at a model ECO-school. Eric and I had a phenomenal Cous-Cous lunch today at Jackie and Chase's host family today. There is not really a restaurant culture here = so the best food is found at home. We are off now to Sale = the poorer part of Rabat for to teach students how to use the camera for the Global Arts Project; more later...

Thanks for sharing all the exciting things OWN is doing. Wish I was there, but only I don't like hot weather.

Global Ambassadors
By Rep. Jim McDermott
I want the OWN students to know how proud I am of your international journey, and I want you to know how very important your interaction is if we are ever to live in a peaceful world.
From the comments many students have posted on the blog, I can tell the trips are educational and moving. I’ve traveled overseas many times as part of my duties as your Representative in Congress, and I firmly believe the road to world peace will be paved with personal relationships forged one-on-one during trips just like the one you are on. I think OWN should consider adding “Global Ambassadors” to its name!
Stay well, be safe, and learn all you can about the countries and people you are visiting, and let them know they are welcome to visit Seattle anytime!
Best wishes,
Rep. Jim McDermott
