DEPARTMENTAL NEWS which was quite short, but very interesting. We had to wait a couple hours for a coach, so we played a couple games like ‘it’ and ‘charades’. After this, we went to the shopping centre and got some ingredients to make a milkshake. In the evening, we went to a traditional Spanish restaurant and had tapas. The chef also made us paella - we had a great time! Jueves (Thursday) We went to the lido and it was very cold, but we had a great time. We had a hot chocolate afterwards and then had free time to walk around and buy

Viernes (Friday) On Friday, we went to the San Blas Nature Reserve and we learned a few things about volcanoes and we went across a pond by pulling a roped boat ourselves. We then walked through a lovely hotel and got to a restaurant, where we had a nice lunch. After we went to the airport, Mani got lots from Burger King and spent loads of money, then we got on the airplane. Fortunately, it was a smooth flight home! We got back to school around 4am.

some stuff. We had McDonalds for lunch, and this was very different to our McDonalds. We then took part in a scavenger hunt and this was very good, as we got to explore the area and take some pictures. In the evening, we met some Danish and Spanish boys at the hotel, we even spoke some Spanish!
