Visit Fire Department, Class
We visited a fire station District 13 in Pierce County in the afternoon. The chief firefighter gave us a small lecture about their work and we asked him many questions in return. There were some other firefighters including two female firefighters at the station, who kindly answered our questions. We later looked around the station, got on a fire truck and an aid car, and enjoyed taking many pictures as well as talking with firefighters. Many of us put on a firefighting jacket and a helmet, and a few even practiced shooting water. The visit was very enjoyable.
We had a class at the study center in the afternoon, and talked about our visit in the morning, and later learned some basics about American coins.
