HUNTSVILLE WEEKEND

CIEE students, host families and LCs from Georgia and Tennessee joined us in Huntsville for the weekend of October 14 and 15. First, we visited the U.S. Space & Rocket Center where we toured the exhibitions, rode Space Shot and the other simulators and watched a captivating IMAX movie about space exploration. Next we visited the Huntsville Botanical Garden, one of the top ten attractions in the southeastern United States. We wrapped up our Saturday at Bridge Street Town Center where everyone enjoyed a wide variety of shopping and restaurants.  The weekend concluded Sunday morning with a tour of nearby Cathedral Caverns, one of the largest and most beautiful caves in the world.
