Greece

On 30th March, I went to Greece on a school exchange trip. We are involved in a european project which implies meeting our partners twice a year for a week.We were a team of three teachers and four students eager to know more about Greece and the Greek.
First we stayed for two days in Athens. We went to the Acropoli , saw the change of the guard, went for a walk to the Pireo and wandered around the Flea Market.
Then, we took a train and went to Thessaloniki. There we met our Greek and Polish partners.The four students were hosted by families. We went to school, worked for a while, toured around and socialized.
It was both a holiday and a working time. It was a short visit, but also exhausting as we tried to asimilate as much as we could and didn´t want to miss neither their architectonical wonders, nor the opportunity to learn more about their school system, nor the chance to experience their love for their music and dances...It was amazing, at least for me, to see how young people enjoyed their free time listening to and dancing their traditional music.
When I came back, our Easter holidays started so I could rest...and do nothing. I read a lot, listened to music, went for walks by the seaside, cooked for my family...So, this year I feel I had a great Easter holiday: I´ve travelled, I´ve learnt a lot of new things, I´ve rested and now feel ready to start the daily routine again.
What about you my students? Have you had a good holiday? What have you done?
I´m looking forward to reading about your holidays...

This holy week I have not done all the things that I wanted but I have spent it to me very well. I am in the band of music of Santa Cruz de la Palma and I had to act in all the processions. When I was not coming at three o'clock in the morning or was not sleeping, I was a day couple to the beach and was with my friends and my girlfriend. I was very tired, but I would do again.

Every day I got up at ten o`clock, after that I had breakfast. When I finished my breakfast I went to the beach with my friends and my girlfriend.
One day I didn`t go to the beach because my sister had headache and temperature. In the evenigs,I play football and swam in the swininpool with my parents and sister.
Last week was very interesting and funny.

Hello! My holy week was very funny. My brother came from Tenerife and some friends from Las Palmas came too so I have a great time with all them. I spent my time going to the beach, or cycling. One day I went walking whit my friends Alvaro and Juani to La Pared Vieja. It was so wonderful. Really the landscape was amazing!! You must try to do a trip like that. Of course I went to some processions. Another day, my parents, my brother and I went to do a trip, but the difference is that this time we rode horses!
Belive me when I say I had good time.

Bye.

Almost every day I woke up at 11 in the morning. I don't went out much in the holy week, but when I did it was very funny. I don't went to church or processions. Rather to the beach and to eat somewhere. It was very entertaining but the whole week passed to quick.

I'm going to start talking about what I did in the Semana Santa holidays: first day (Monday)I played soccer with my friends and basketball too. On Tuesday I stayed at home and I watched the TV all the time.Then I went to Tenerife Island on Wednesday in airplane. I stayed in Geral's house (my older sister)with my mother, father and my other sister (eight years old). We went to Carrefour and Alcampo and we bought some beautiful things like my T-Shirt and a short to my sister. Also we went to McDonal's to eat. we came back oh Sunday morning to La Palma Island.

In my holiday i went to the beach only one time because the weather wasn´t very good. However i went to a lot of parties with my friends because i was very bored and i wanted to do something. Also I went to three or four prosesions with Nuria. Finally I was studying because I had an exam.
