THURSDAY 12TH APRIL

Thursday 12th April




Good morning once again! It was already thursday and it was sad to think that our trip would end on sunday which was almost by the corner. 

Today it was time for Jorvik Viking museum and Designer outlet! After lunch we went all together to the museum and there we had 20 minutes to do whatever we want so our group Itsaso, Alex, Elisa, Marta, Ayeisa, Violeta and I went to the supermarket to buy some biscuits which were a deal I think we payed 8 pounds in total for 10 biscuits which were so good. When we got out of the supermarket we realised our free time passed so we got back to wait at the queue. Once we got in it started to smell weird and bad. I don’t really know how to describe the museum but there was like a circuit and we got into little “cars” of 6 that went really slow and was telling stories about how people lived before and also represented with really realistic mannequins that were moving. It was cool with the interpretations but honestly it was a little boring, also the museum was closed for months before because it flooded, our “mom” told us. :)
When we finished the visit we went to the bus station where we would take the bus to go to the outlet. I never went to an outlet before and I didn’t expect it as good as this, it was super big actually. I walked a lot trying to find something that I like but I just found 1 t-shirt of Tommy Hilfiger which is the only thing I bought and some Vans but they didn’t have my size so. Even though it was an outlet there were also things that were expensive and of new season. Time passed super fast for me actually I guess it is because I really like shopping. Many people bought a lot of things. We got back to the center where we would take the bus as always to get home. Today we had pasta for dinner once again.

SUNDAY 15TH: RETURN FLIGHT HOME. GOOD BYE YORK

Imagen
Sunday 15th April ( by Arianna) My alarm sounded at 4:45 as I have settled it and time was up. I was sad because I knew this trip has came to an end. I dressed up and I passed breakfast for some reason. I brushed my teeth and added the last things to my suitcase.  Our “mom” offered us some snacks which I accepted and told us goodbye. Then “our dad” took us to York where we would all meet at the bus. I sat with Guille and we talked about random things and we played parchis in the mobile phone.  The journey to Manchester was fast. When we arrived we told goodbye to our coaches and did the normal things in an airport. When we passed all the controls our teacher gave us 10 pounds ( each group of 3 ) to buy something at the airport so we decided to go to the KFC and get something. It was time to get into the plane, I was excited and the flight was really fast.  When we arrived to Madrid we passed the controls and got our luggage. Then I met my mom and w...

SATURDAY 14TH: WHITBY AND ROBIN HOOD'S BAY

Imagen
Saturday 14th April Today we went to the English sea !! We woke up at the same time as always 6:45 and did the same things as every morning. We had to be in the meeting point at 9:00 am where we would take the bus to go to the Robin’s Hood Bay which had nothing to do with Robin Hood. It took us around 1h and 20 min to get there and there we had more or less 1 hour of free time in which I went with Niurka, Sara and Chen to take pictures. It was beautiful, I loved it.  Then we went to Whitby which was at about 15 minutes by bus. The first thing we did is eating but it was kind of uncomfortable because there were gulls all around and we didn’t really relax. Then we visited the abbey of Whitby and we got down where we would have free time, the weather was so good I bought an ice cream and we were looking for fudge. After buying the fudge we went to the other part of the bridge where Alex and Elisa got a waffle and we stayed on a bench until the free time finished....
