Legio XX

It's hard to believe we've all been together for almost an entire week! The day started as usual, with our classes. We learned clothing and color words in loquenda, analyzed panel paintings in oderint, and finally learned of Atreus's plan to get revenge on Thyestes in de scelere. Everyone met in the atrium after lunch and awaited the arrival of Legio XX! 
Legio XX is a Roman Legion reenactment group. We were shown how to march, throw javelins and plumbata, and spin wool! Additionally, we got to handle various replica items such as coins and shields. This was a very fun and informative activity! Then, after more Memoranda work and play practice, we ate dinner and did more work on the Mercatus project.
To top off the night, we all gathered for some Karaoke. Everyone who sang did a fantastic job! We ended the night with a group rendition of Don't Stop Believing, which involved lots of groovy dance moves from almost everyone. Thank you, tribunes (Min Jae and Ana), for setting up this event for us all to enjoy!
Pictures of the past two days' events will be added tomorrow morning.
