Querido Teresa y el Clase 9C de Onslow St. Audreys,
As it is the beginning of September and I'm sure by now you will be back to school and telling all your friends about your summer holidays, I thought I would tell you about my summer in Barcelona. Here are a selection of the highlights from my barcelona summer school. Primero visité Besalu
and Empuries en el segundo semana. We went to Empuries first which were Greek ruins and Roman ruins that were once towns. Then we went to Besalu
which was a beautiful little Spanish town and we looked at the Castle
and at the Jewish ritual bath. In my 6 weeks in Barcelona I have had to
watch
a number of different Spanish
films in my Spanish cinema class including 'El Espíritu de la colmena'(The Spirit of the Beehive') (I have attached a link so you can see the trailer for it at the bottom of the page). Hope you enjoy watching it!
Another
highlight from my trip was the day trip to Santa Creus and Valls. Santa
Creus was an old Castilian monastery. Valls was a place just outside of
Barcelona where Spanish people make human towers ('Torres humanos') or
'castells'. We had a chance to try doing some ourselves and I have
attached some photos of my classmates' attempts at creating human
towers.
I have attached pictures of all the places I went on my day trips including Empuries, Besalu, Santa Creus Monestir and Valls. I have had a really great time in Barcelona and I have met some really great people and made new friends who I hope I can meet up with-I have made a German friend called Jil and she will be studying in Barcelona again from September-December this year and a Swiss friend Adrian who will be studying in Madrid in the 2nd semester (from February-June). I have also meet lots of nice American friends such as Ashley, Christian and Brian.
Espero que tus vacaciones fueron divertidos (Hope that your holidays were fun),
Becky
