Today we had a museum day. Our team visited Waldensian Heritage Museum, Trail of Faith, Waldensian winery and railroad museum at the Old Rock School. It has been interesting to note that many American stories have the roots in the Europe. For example that story of the Italian village where the Waldenians lived until they moved to North Carolina.
The sun has been shining and I think today was the warmest day of our trip. Other team members sunbathe whenever it is possible, but I have to seek shady places: five minutes in the sunshine and I am red like a boiled crayfish.
In the afternoon we were exceptionally creative and decided (surprise surprise) to go to a mall for shopping.
In the evening we had a nice dinner with our hosts and other Rotarians and after the dinner we listened a guitar player: Schubert and other beautiful melodies (I think Ilmo knows better).

I actually live in Valdese. Each summer, the town of Valdese has an outdoor drama about the history of the Waldensian people. The perform it each weekend for six week. For the last two years, I have performed in this show. Although, I grew up in this town and studied its history in elementary school, I never really appreciated the story until doing that drama. I'm so glad you were able to visit my hometown.
