Our last day in England
Today has been our last day in Bristol and we've enjoy it. Our last activity has been the visit to Warwick castle. We've taken the coach at 8:30 and we've arrived at eleven o'clock approximately. There we've had the opportunity of watching trabuchet's rock throwing, the eagles show and the jousting apart from another details. We haven't seen the castle from the inside but we hope it was beautiful . We've also taken photos with Chinese, Japanese and Mexican people. After that we've had lunch: fish and chips. There was also a Chinese person who was speaking to us and he didn't know how to speak English very well. We've asked him what type of English does he speak and his answer has been: "In China we speak Chinese but I haven't come to Hong Kong. Later in the evening mostly all of the students (we were now 18) have been sitting in the grass and doing martial arts. We've taken the coach to Bristol at four o'clock and we've arrived here at six. After having a shower we've had dinner in a Italian restaurant where we have improved our just learned Italian and we've done it thanks to our Italian friends: Simone Maestre, Riccardo Boroni, Chiara Turri, Rebecca Revelli and Marta Revelli.

The last supper
After not paying the train, as usual. We have our last lessons about zoos and about The Titanic.We speaked about it, discussed with our Italian partners, etc... We also have a express lunch, ten minutes or something like that. And after the great second chapter of the talent show, single performances, piano, kung-fu, ridicolous performances. Our song was forever young, and I don't know why some Italian girls told to make also Sexy and I Know It, so we made two songs plus the dance, the light dance, don't worry. And we also performed the drama about the romantic killer, we were shot by an Argentinian guy at a pub. Before that we made a test and I don't why, all the girls they were sitting next to us finally have all the questions correct. I don't really understand it. At the evening we have a Disco, but this time with pizzas, 8 pizzas for 70 people. I think the school is a bit tight-fisted. The bad point of the disco was the music, the food, the drink, the hour, etc... Who likes techno music? We don't. Imagine 2 hours listening to that f*****g music while you are eating one slice of pizza. I really don't enjoy it so much. After we the last supper at an Indian with Inigo's friend. We have fun, and we talked about many many things, tomorrow we will publiced photos and videos so don't worry.

Great origami night
Today has been the day before the last one but anything has changed except that we've gone walking to catch the train for the first time. The first lesson has been about spoof and in the second one we've learnt how to compare and how to classify the countries talking about the first, second and third world. We've eaten our Tesco's Spanish chorizo in the famous bench. We've played sports in the afternoon, rugby, football, ping-pong and frisby. We haven't come back home because we finally have had the origami activity in the evening. Lots of people were expected to go but only eight students have been there: the two of us, our Riojan friends, a Russian, a Bielorrusian and another one. We've been doing origami two hours in a row and we've only done five figures. We've also seen a fox (which is probably the one of the other day) in the Grammar School. We've finished the origami "lesson" at twenty to ten so we didn't have time to catch the train. Inigo has come to give us a lift and we've had enough time to buy some food for our families. After that we've come back home and we've just chill out because tomorrow is our last school day

Origami or not origami?
After paying the ticket, sorry, after I have paid the tickets we went to the school. We firstly talked about weird museums and we also prepared the song for the talent show. It's really amazing song, if you don't have to dance it. Grease. The ridiculous is obvious. We hope we won't be John Travolta, please God listen us, and don't choose us tomorrow. Then we talked about yesterday's drama and about The thing that usually Bell Gribs do. No cheating, instead of that we talked about survival at desert places. As normal we ate a sandwich or a sandwichito, in Argentina. We also learnt the main sentences of Italian and Argentinian (it seems to be the same language as the spanish, but isn't) The afternoon activity was a walking tour through Bath, a city near Bristol. Where we saw the roman baths, the abbey, and some parks. Tomorrow we will post the photos don't worry. We were supposed to have Origami a the evening but nobody was there, so we decided to play some table tennis. At the moment we are playing to the MW3. 19-2-3 with the MP7 and MP9, can you overcome that?

Laser fusion
For the first time in the hole month we haven't ran to catch the train. For our surprise it has been a normal morning, we've waken up early, have breakfast and leave home. In our first lesson, we've talked about music festivals and the advantages and disadvantages that they have. In the second lesson we've talked about advertisements and phrasal verbs. We've than an exiting activity called laser fusion were there were two teams and we had to shoot them to score points. We've played two games until four o'clock and we've come home walking. In the first match the results were: Ander the fifth better in the match, and Marcos ninth. Meanwhile, in the second one we changed the teams, Ander was with all the Italians, and Marcos with our friends and the Argentinian girls, who didn't do anything, and in Ander's team was a Russian girl who was cheating all the time, so they were four people against six and a cheater. The results have finished like this: Ander the fourth best of the match and Marcos the 11th. We've been playing MW3 with Gorbendo for an hour more or less and we've leveled up many times thanks to him. In this moment Inigo is playing play station because he wants to kill 5 people on a match. This is how we chill out in our leisure time.

The last week
After arriving at class as usual we realised that two students joined our class. Cristina and Marta. They are now at the highest level in the school! In our class. We firstly prepared a drama, a romantic killer. And after we talked about extreme sports. The second lesson was about jokes and humour, we told some jokes to each other, etc... The afternoon activity was treasure hunting at the centre, but only Marcos and few more people done it. Instead of that I stayed with Javi and Diego playing ping-pong in this sunny day. Sunny, I'mn't wrong. Like 25 grades. Then we returned back home, to connect with Gorbendo, a friend from Getxo. But we couldn't because he was doing another thing at the Play Station. Then, we went to the evening activity, giant games again. Jenga, chess, and Spanish music. Our friends didn't come so we stayed all the time with the Argentinians. Today we have also prepared our own dinner.

Fishing videos 2
Fighting with the ray 1

Fighting with the ray 3
After five minutes...
Kg rain
As you know, today we've been fishing again in Barry. We've waken up at 6 o'clock on the morning because we've had an hour of trip to arrive at the meeting point but as always the captain was late. The boat has been full. We were three of us, three Russians and other local men. We've waited an hour until we arrived at the fishing area. In the first cast Inigo has caught a small conger and an old man has also caught a small rock fish. After an hour more or less, the Russian has caught a small smooth hound (2kg maybe) and that's when we've started fishing. We haven't caught anything until the ray has bitten the squid. The fight has been for unless five minutes. After the 7,5kg ray has come the 4,5kg smooth hound, probably one of the biggest shark of today. Everybody was fishing in that moment except Ander, who has fished his 3kg smooth hound. He has taken it after Marcos missed the biggest smooth hound of the day. In total we've got 21 fishes. The captain Wayne has said that it has been a quiet day, so imagine a good one. After paying, we've come back home and we've had dinner: pie with chips.
Result table of the year:
-Ander: A conger and a smooth hound.
-Inigo: A doggy and a conger.
-Marcos: 3 doggies, a conger, a cod and a smooth hound.

Thank you, everybody
After running for taking the train we left the school, course to the Stonehenge. We were at the monument for about 45 minutes, and the other time waiting in the queue. 45 minutes to see some stones aren't much time. Then we went to Salisbury, a village near Stonehenge, that is famous because of it cathedral. After we had 3 hours of break, we have lunch, time to buy some souvenirs, sightseeing time. We also bought some souvenirs, a big souvenir, and we visited the huge cathedral. We also have a boring return to Bristol, listening to my sister's music. At the evening we have a barbecue only 3 of us, because Eszter is now at Hungary for 4 days. We ate some burgers and some hot dogs, nothing special. Now we are taking advantage of the play station because there aren't any type of peer pressure.
PD: Thank you for all the page viewers, today we crossed the line of 2000 visits!!! Tomorrow, we are going fishing, don't forget it.
