<p>Ever been on one?</p>
<p>I just got back from 10 days in Japan with 10 students and two teachers :D Best time of my life ever. Also made Uniqlo like my favorite clothing store. We went to like four of them during our time there.</p>
<p>That’s pretty cool! I’ve always wanted to learn Japanese, and live in Japan for a year or two. My social studies teacher has been there, and said it was a great place.</p>
<p>Next year I’m going on a trip to Spain/North Morocco with the school’s Spanish Club. 30-40 kids are going, but only a few freshman, since not many freshman join the club. It should be interesting.</p>
<p>Our school isn’t allowed to have out-of-country trips. We rarely even have any out-of-state trips, lol.</p>
<p>I went to the UK over spring break last year with 19 other students and 2 teachers as part of a foreign-exchange trip. It was amazing. I saw so many cool things, the best of which were Big Ben and the castle they based Hogwarts off of.</p>
<p>Other trips include France, Germany, and Costa Rica.</p>
<p>One of my old schools did a 10 day trip to Europe with EF Tours and it was absolutely amazing. It was definitely one of the best experiences of my life.</p>
<p>Considered going on a tour of Europe with a school group but had to back out because I will be gone traveling when they leave.</p>
<p>I do have a friend who just got back from a trip to Austria with her school choir. They had been invited to perform over their spring break. The experience sounded incredible.</p>
<p>My school goes overboard with trips. This year alone we’ve had or are having: Spain, Italy, Japan and China.</p>
<p>On a rather unrelated note, I love Uniqlo. It’s refreshing to see a clothing company’s male line to <em>actually</em> be good for once.</p>
<p>Our PUBLIC school goes overboard as well. This summer there’s three, one is to Europe, including London where they’ll get to go to a few Olympic events, Berlin, and Paris. Another is to the South Pacific including Australia and Fiji, and a third is to Belize. They’re all hella-expensive, and while someone who has just graduated can technically go, I think it would feel weird.</p>
<p>I’m in the same boat as Pippa. Ours was 9 days, but definitely the best experience of my life.</p>
<p>It’s a bit easier for us, as mainland europe is only 4 hours away, so last year I went on a spanish trip to Santander for 4 days and a battlefields trip to Ypres, Belgium for 3 days. In Otober I’m going to Greece for a classics trip, so excited!
There was also the oppurtuntity to go to Berlin on a history trip, but the places were limited and I was chosen randomly to not get a place 
The History trip to Belgium was the most amazing thing I’ve ever done, and has really converted me into a history-lover. If any of you get the chance to visit Ypres, or any of the other WW1 battlefields, take it!
Unfortunetly, the law permits only 2 days off school per trip, which limits us to 4 days including the weekend. And so jealous of a school trip including Olympic tickets! They were almost impossible to get if you live here, let alone going with school.</p>
<p>Yea I signed up for tickets and didn’t get any.</p>
<p>My school has zero field trips. (May or may not be courtesy of budget cuts- I don’t think we had any to begin with.) Looking to go on a School Year Abroad junior year, though.</p>
