Pony Express: Friendship is Cultural Exchange! Wednesday, period 1
Pinkie wasn't looking nearly as anxious to get to Equestria this week as she usually did. She waited with what even looked like it might be patience (well, on a manic pink pony, anyway, which . . . involved a fair amount of twitching) until everyone seemed to have arrived.
"I just wanted to start today by saying sorry about last week. I didn't realize that the ponies in Appleloosa just moving in the way they did was pretty mean. I'm still happy that everypony worked it all out so they can share that land, but that doesn't make what they did any nicer. Sorry about not thinking about that before we went to visit." Pinkie maintained her very serious and sincerely sorry face for another few beats, then brightened when the portal behind her opened up.
"This week should be much nicer!" she declared, leading the way through onto . . . the road outside Ponyville, where a Twilight Sparkle waited next to a bright purple and pink hot air balloon. "Today we're going to see a very extra special Equestria city, accessible only to pegasuses and other flyers: Cloudsdale!" She threw her hooves excitedly in the air, as was traditional when announcing the name of where they were going. "Now, because Cloudsdale is totally made of clouds, we're going to need some help to be able to tour it, which is what Twilight's here for! She has a special spell she can cast on us to let us walk on the clouds like pegasuses do!"
"That's right, Pinkie," Twilight said. She closed her eyes and concentrated, creating a pink bubble around the students, which burst with glimmering sparkles. "That should do it! You'll be cloud-ready for the duration of class!" Her eyes twitched to one side. "Hopefully."
Pinkie didn't seem to notice Twilight's hesitation. She started waving students into the hot air balloon, which lifted them up to a glimmering, Grecian styled cloud city. "Here it is!" Pinkie announced, hopping out and trotting out a little ways to make room for the students to try out their cloud-walking spell. Thankfully, Twilight's spell seemed to work just as well on humanoids as on ponies; the students might get sore walking on something as fluffy and slightly bouncy as clouds, but they wouldn't go plunging to their dooms.
"Now, Cloudsdale is a unique city in Equestria, not just because it's populated entirely by pegasuses. It's also the only city that actually travels around! It can float anywhere that needs it, which is everywhere, because Cloudsdale's number one industry is weather making!" Pinkie led the way to a complex, open air factory, where she paused, pulling a box of white hard hats out of . . . somewhere. "Safety first! Weather can get pretty exciting, even when it's just being manufactured! There's loads of places in here to explore, so split up if you want and have fun! Just be sure not to touch anything that a pegasus hasn't told you is okay to touch, and whatever you do, don't taste the rainbows!"

During the lecture/spell/hot air balloon ride
She's really not very good at thinking these sorts of things through.

Ponies didn't so much do organized religion.

This was exactly the sort of guarantee that, in another genre, would lead to the class being haunted.

It kind of did!
