The graduation march starts to play, not in an auditorium, but at the seashore!
At this time of year they're still having thunderstorms every afternoon in Taipei, but here at Fulien Elementary School, at the easternmost point in Taiwan, summer has set in and the sun beats down strong on the school's graduation ceremony, where the kids will have to complete a snorkeling exercise to get their diplomas.
Professional lifeguards lead the 120 graduating students on a 1,200-meter swim across Luan-ao Bay. The kids jump happily into the water and strike out for the opposite shore, where they clamber to land and receive their diplomas while the crowd applauds. Who will ever forget this day?
