QotD: No shouting on the bus!

What was your most memorable or favorite school field trip?

I went on a grand total of two school trips. The first, after much persuasion from a mother disturbed by my complete lack of interest in fraternising with my few classmaes, in Form Two (the last year of primary school, aged 12). I say persausion, but really my mother chaperoned, so I had no choice.

 We ventured from the tiny speck that Matamau would be on the map if it was worthy, to Wellington, our fair and windy capital city. We toured a television studio, a car factory, a Coke bottling factory, and a few other things I can't recall. I do recall being stuck in a stupid little cabin with the two other girls my age in my class, as we all pondered what a lame trip it was.

My second school trip was infinitely more interesting as my art class of about 7 took a mini-bus to Wellington again, in Sixth Form. We visited galleries with the eccentric art teacher I would soon come to hate as she stiffled any created endeavours which did not meet her standards, before branching of to shop for music and other non-school related activities. We learnt nothing which improved our grades, but had considerable fun.
