A Holiday Away from Home in Good Company - 1/15/09
There is something about being “home for the holidays” that is especially comforting. Whether it’s putting up holiday decorations, baking or just being in good company with family and friends, celebrating the season with loved ones seems to make the holidays special. While most Gonzaga students struggled to return home from Spokane this holiday break due to the snowstorms, many Gonzaga-in-Florence (GIF) students also embarked on a two-week holiday tour to the snowy climes of Scandinavia and Russia.
