Day 22 - Kiwi Trophy

We went to Leah's FPSPI competition in Ames, Iowa last week. We went to the Opening Ceremony on Thursday night where there was flag procession of all the states and countries that people were from. I liked the New Zealand flag person because they dressed up as a kiwi and everyone in the audience clapped. Leah went up on stage and got a big trophy for getting second in the world in the Junior Section of the Scenario Writing Competition. On Friday morning, Leah competed in the team competition. On Friday afternoon we visited the Physics and Astronomy Department at ISU and Mum and Dad both gave talks about astronomy. We went out for dinner with some Astronomy people at a Japanese restaurant where they cooked the food in front of you,  Then on Saturday night, we watched the FPSPI talent contest which was fun. There was a funny dance to the song "Happy" where everyone in the dance group was dressed up with a big pillowcase head. There was also a funny song called "Malaysian Funk" which everyone liked.
