Ad Virginiam! - To Virginia!

Cras, mater mea et ego gubernabimus septem horas ab Syracusis, NY, ad oppidum parvum in Virginia. In Virginia, discipula ero in conventiculum*. Illic, viginti quattuor alii discipuli et ego loquemur Latine totam septimanam. Habebimus classes Latine (cum libro nostro _Lingua Latina_), ibimus ad Missam Latinam, ambulatum ibimus, habebimus saltationes, natabimus et gubernabimus naves in fluvio, et multas alias res faciemus- omnes Latine!

Quandocumque possum, narrabo vobis de itinere et casibus meis!


-- ENGLISH TRANSLATION --


Tomorrow, my mom and I will drive seven hours from Syracuse, NY, to a small town in Virginia. In Virginia, I will be a student in a Latin Immersion Program*. There, twenty-four other students and I will speak Latin for the whole week. We will have classes taught in Latin (with our book _Lingua Latina_), go to Latin Mass, go for a hike, have dances, swim and go boating in the river, and lots of other things - all in Latin!

As soon as I can, I will tell you about my trip and my adventures!





* "conventiculum" literally means a gathering or assembly, but that's one of the things Latin Immersion Programs and such are called in Latin.
