The three boys are of course keen to learn how to surf - none of the five had seen the sea before,coming from inland communities - but, surprisingly, so is Becky. Whilst the boys are allowed to strip, the sight of a girl in a figure-hugging wet-suit is, according to the Amish, likely to arouse lustful thoughts in men, so Becky, after a phone call home, dons a floppy T-shirt over her wet-suit to ride the surf. She and Leah also accompany one of the girls, who is getting married, to a bridal shop and put on wedding dresses - something that, at home, would be made, very simply, not shop-bought. The month over, they return to America and discuss their impressions of British life. They have loved the experience though it will never diminish their religious faith. Surprisingly the outward going Leon and Jerry now feel readier to be baptized as Amish, effectively closeting them in their community, whilst the two girls are prepared to see more of life outside their village. One thing is clear. They may be products of their upbringing but their perception and willingness to try new things marks them as anything but square. Written by don @ minifie-1 See less
