Galien, MI - Battle Creek, MI

Reported by Sandro Zincarini 64.0 mi

The morning started at the Ballard Elementary School, in Niles.

And then a revised version of 'I am singing in the rain'.
The 'silly version', according to the teachers...
a hit among the kids!

Presenting our Certificate of Appreciation.

Arpan giving an interview.

...and finally running with the torch!

Stampede!

Wonderful refreshments for everybody!

Our police escort.

Our new friend, who ran with us a few miles after the school.

...'No sir, I am sure that I was not running more than the speed limit'...

And then was time to visit the Boys & Girls Club in Kalamazoo.

'I know the answer!'

'The band'.

Little skits to prompt the kids in recognising what is 'peace' or 'not peace'.

We hold the torch...

...and we run!

The crowd acclaimed Bob.
