Riga - Day 4 (Wednesday)

Wednesday the 30^th of October – by Natalia

When we woke up, we had breakfast and went to the highschool. Later we got on the bus and headed to Kuldiga, a town with waterfalls, but before arriving, we stopped four times, we had breakfast and we also took a walk in the woods and we saw some creepy dolls.

Pedvale museum is an open air field with sculptures carved in wood or stone that represent a metaphor of the world we live in, they are a mixture of man-made creations such as TVs and nature. Some sculptures are made with recycled material such as cloth or old televisions.

When we arrived in town (Kuldiga), we took a walk around the waterfalls and went to eat, but later we saw the town and when we entered the bus, we talked to the Italians and some people fell asleep. When we arrived in Riga we went to our houses because we were tired.

Riga - Day 3 (Tuesday)

Tuesday in Riga – by Andrea

On Tuesday, I got up at 7:30 and I ate a hotdog for breakfast. Then I went to the "Purvciems Riga" high school and we were split into two groups.

The first group went to a classroom for a painting lesson and the second group were playing a game. It was a game with questions and answers, a quiz. If you said the correct answer you earned points.

When the two groups finished their activities they changed.

Then we were playing the piano and singing with the other students of the different countries.

At eleven o`clock we went to the school and we ate some typical sweets from Latvia.

Then we went on the bus to go to Jurmala. We stopped in a forest to see a museum of and we had a walk from the forest to the beach.

After that we had lunch, we ate salmon.

When we arrived to the high school at 5 o`clock we went bowling with our hosts. It was really funny. There we ate some pizza and we went back to our homes.

When I was at home I had a shower and I went to bed at 12 o`clock.

Riga - Day 2 (Monday)

On Monday: Arrival to school – by Carla

I got up at 7:00 am. I went to the high school at 8:30 am. There we visited the classes; the headmaster spoke to us about the school. It has many students (more than 1200) from children to teenagers; primary to secondary (12 grades).

Then we had a little coffee time and we went to the bus to go Riga center.

There, two students from 12 grade explained to us some interesting things about a few famous monuments. We also visited the City Hall and the mayor talked to us about the city, and gave us some presents from Riga.

We visited the Old Town in Riga, there we took a lot of photos and it was more beautiful than the center.

We ate in a restaurant called "Lido" (it's a well-known restaurant for its food), however I didn't like it too much.

After that we bought bus tickets and we went to Andrey's house. There we played "fifa" and made some silly things. At 19:30 we took the bus and came back home.

When we arrived I had dinner and after that I helped Polina with her Spanish homework. Then I had a shower and went to bed.

Molfetta - Return day (Saturday)

HAVING A NICE TRIP!    By Lourdes

We got up at four o'clock in the morning because the transfer to Bari was waiting for us at half past four. We thanked the parents, who were waiting for us, and said goodbye as we got on the minibus.
We arrived on time to Bari airport and then we had time to say bye bye to the Turkish people, who were already at the airport, and to go through the check-in.
We were taking off at quarter past six from Bari to Rome and when we arrived had time to have breakfast and to do some shopping. Then we took off from Rome to Malaga airport at ten o'clock and this last flight was softer than the first one, in fact they didn’t serve us anything.
Finally we were in Málaga on time again, at half past twelve, but the last transfer was waiting for us for nearly one hour at the exit gate because the luggage didn't get out till very late.
So he picked us up and we were in Nerja at half past two in the same meeting point where the trip had begun.
Definitely we had a nice trip!!!
