Monday 23rd September

The last of the 10 days we stayed in Germany we woke up at 6:00 am.

First I finished my suitcase and then I went downstairs to have breackfast. Finally,  I  got ready to go to the school and to leave Germany.

When we left  the house, on the way to the school, my host mother stopped in a bakery and bought three ”bretzels” for me to bring to my family to Spain. Then, we arrived to the school parking where we met the other German and Spanish students. The time arrived and all the Spanish got on the bus that would take us to the airport.

At the airport we passed all the check points and then we had a few minutes of free time. One student from our group  lost her passport  while waiting for the plane, and some people helped her look for it. Suddenly, my passport fell down and when I was to take it I found her passport too. 

At 12 pm we got on the plane and  we had not yet begun to get speed, when Roxana said “ya siento la velocidad” and before realising it  we had taken off and the two hour-flight had begun. When we finally land on Bilbao we got on another bus that took us to Calahorra where lots of people were waiting for us.

After 1 hour of bus we arrived in Switzerland where we visited the Rhine waterfalls. We walk to differents places from where we could see differents perspectives of the waterfalls, and then we took a boat to have a closer look at them. Later on,  we got again on the bus and we went to visit  Lake Constance. We took a ferry that took us to the other side of the lake and we wondered around a small city. We had free time to eat, go shopping… Finally  we crossed the lake back to got on the bus again which took us back to school where we met  our families to go home and have dinner.

Tuesday 17th September

Today we went to a Biological Bread Factory. There a friendly woman-the owner- explained us the different cereals and main types of bread and let us try some of their best bread products.

Then, she showed us all the factory and she explained us how they work and manufacture bread at each stage.

After the visit we went back to the factory cafe where we were offered a variety od different homemade cakes, bretzels and hot chocolate to drink. After eating we thanked the lady and we went back to the highschool where we were meeting our exchange students to eat in the canteen. Some people ate little because they were feeling full after all  they had eaten in the factory. After luch we went together with our exchange students to a classroom to work on the project. Our task was to write down a  german recipe in Spanish and in German. At  4 p.m. more or less, we returned  home and we spent the rest of the afternoon with our partners.
