FAREWELL

This morning was the farewell. It was simple but very moving. Here  you have some pictures.

TURBO!!!

Yesterday in the morning we had classes about the Spanish education system and about some films we like and we explained the argument of one film and the review of it. When we finished the classes we caught a bus and we went to Montgomery Mall, first of all we went shopping, then the people who wanted to see a movie at 2:30 had to stay at the entrance of the cinema to see it.

The name of the film was Turbo. It is a film about a snail that loves the car racing and it trains to run as fast as race cars. The snail had a freak accident, it enters a car engine and it turns into an incredible snail, it can run as fast as the race cars. A taco salesman found him in the street and they went to Indianapolis 500 car race. The snail runs in the race and he wins the race and it becomes the first snail in winning an Indianapolis 500. When the film finished we had one hour more to stay in the mall and finally we went to the school to go home.

A SHORT VIDEO OF GREAT FALLS

GREAT FALLS (VIRGINIA SIDE)

Jaime and Carles

Yesterday in the morning we talked about American food and traditions. At noon, we went to Great falls in Virginia. It’s a very beautiful natural park and the river Potomac crosses it. This park has two sides, Maryland side and Virginia side.  We walked next to the river, into a forest.
Then we went to a shop called 7eleven and Randy, our new chaperone of the school, invited us a soda ice-cream called Slurpee and we took different sizes and flavours.  Finally, when we arrived at the school some people went to an Adventure park but I went home with my host family.

ANNAPOLIS, THE CAPITAL CITY OF MARYLAND

My day started in a different way; because I got asleep I only had 5 minutes to prepare my Packed-lunch and eat my breakfast. Jorge’s host family dad carried me to the high school of Our Lady of Good Counsel, and when we got there we directly went to class. In yesterday’ s class we spoke about Annapolis, which was going to be our destiny yesterday, the class was interesting we learnt many things as for example, the way  the city looks like and ghost stories about it.

When we finished our classes we went to Annapolis by bus, it wasn’t a large trip, it lasted for about 40 minutes. By the time we got there, we went to a location and we had a 2 and half hour  free tour for us as part of an activity, in which we tried to look for some famous sites, that finally we were unable to find. After all this, we returned to the bus and we came back to school.

 

In the evening we had a party at Jorge’s house, I really enjoyed it. We met lots of American teenagers, and there was music, food and different sodas to drink; and when the party ended I slept at Jorge’s house.
