DAYS 22 & 23 (Saturday, Sunday)
The morning was morning off so we had breakfast each one by him/herself and then Concha and Helena went to the town center and Alicia,Laura and me stayed home to finish the magazine,the blogs,the film,the scrapbook,clean all the cabin and pack our things. We had fun because we played loud music and we laughed a lot...At lunch time Luis came and we prepared a special meal instead of sadwiches.We fried eggs and we ate them with bread,chips and bacon...it was great! After that Alicia and I prepared some presents for Maria,Claudia and Laura.
Pilar (the boss) came and had dinner with us and that night she slept in our cabin and Laura in my bedroom.Alicia and me prepared her a miniparty and we had a great time!
The next day we prepared and packed all for leaving and at lunch time Pilar tried to destroy the house twice. First she fired the oven with the food inside and then she dropped a whole jar of water on the floor....First fire and then flood...If she continues like this the academy is going to desappear!
Well at four o'clock we went by taxi to the airport and there we gave to the teachers their presents...We went back home leaving Henry (our friendly hoover) and El Alegre....what a pity :'(
And this is the end of our adventure in Cambridge...I have enjoyed a lot...Thank you Maria ,Claudia and Pilar and good bye! =)

DAY 21 (Friday)
In the library we did something new, AMAZING!!! We did the presentation of the magazine in a new room and we realised that we had a lot of work so we went on working until lunch time and then we went to do some sport but we couldn't because it was for primary school...so we went home to go on working! But after that we had a nice surprise: we had a picnic in a new park.We had hot dogs and marsh mallows...at night we played some running games and also relaxing games.We had a great time,it was very funny,we played "chiquitin chiquitan, chinese wall,candle,pim-pam-pum and racing".
We laughed a lot and coming back home we were singing and a man told us to stop...I don't sing that badly (I think). Well we also had our diplomas with our most identifiing characteristic...I was Ms Daredevil....
So this is almost the ending of this trip and this blog...goodbye for today!

DAY 20 (Thursday)
After finishing in the library Alicia,Luis,Laura and I went to the roof of the shopping center and we had lunch there.From there we could see almost all Cambridge and all the beautiful towers of the colleges.
Later we went back home and we had another session of the reading club and Jokes Theme Night (but in the afternoon) and it was painful...English jokes are so bad.I give you an example: -How do you call a sheep with no legs? "A cloud." cri-cri ... cri-cri
So we had dinner early and then we saw a film in Laura's bedroom.We saw Shrek, I love it! We laughed a lot and we ate popcorns!

DAY 19 (Wednesday)
We went to the library (...),we had free time for having lunch (...) and we went to Parker's Piece to talk and do an interview to a student of the University of Cambridge. His name was Jack,he was nineteen and he was nice.We asked him two questions each one and he answered and then he went on talking about other things explaning many facts. Then we had to interview about the Olympics to people in the street. It was fun and we heard very different opinions... We interviewed a man that was selling flowers and he told to us that he once took part in competitions doing long jump...not even he belives it...haha!
After the interviews we had more free time and it began to rain and the city was beautiful that way!
I went to some churches,to the river banks and to a new place that I discovered and took us to a nice neighborhood.
So we went home and we had dinner...and we also did the cinema theme night.We were editing the videos for making the final film.It was tiring because after that I had to go on with the scrapbook too. But after that we all could rest in peace (R.I.P. ME).

DAY 18 (Tuesday)
After the library we had some free time and then we met at the front door of the shopping center. We did the Treasure Hunt. It consisted of looking for some places you were told and take pictures of all the challenges...We were splitted into three groups and the activity took us about two hours...we had to walk alone from one part of Cambridge to the other,it was so tiring but it was funny because we sometimes saw the other groups looking for things we had just found... sometimes we had problems for accesing to the places but someone always helped us.For example when we had to go to the Quiet Room (in Anglia Ruskin College) they said to us that we couldn't enter because we weren't students but then a woman saw us and she asked if we wanted to go there and she took us to the Quiet Room by another way without guards...(feel like a ninja). We also had to ask for the latin inscription under the clock of Corpus Christi College and I asked for it to a young punter and he told me that he didn't know the meaning and when I was leaving he talked to me again:-If you want I can write it for you.- and I was like "whaaaaat?! you have just said that you don't know" but I gave him the paper and he wrote: "I think,therefore I poo" and again "whaaaaaat?!" I read the sentence and I laughed but...he was stupid (and funny) !!! What a funny punter, haha ha ha ha ha ha ,NO.
Well at the end my group won because we were the first arriving to the meeting point! The teachers owe us a reward!
So we had more free time but we went home because we had to study our stories for the ghost tour at night...because of that we had dinner earlier than the normal days and then we made up ourselves like this for the ghost tour:
(haha more or less)
And we went to the city center to tell stories in the dark and filming the introductions. We scared people on the street and as always we had to run a lot for catching the bus.The best affright was when I went stepping strong behind two young women and one realised it and started to turn around camly without expecting she was going to see my "face" and she screamed so loud that she scared me too and we both went running each one to opposed ends of the street.But the woman didn't stop until she was with another group of people in the opposite side of the street...it was great!

DAY 17 (Monday)
After the library we had free time for having lunch and Alicia and I went to a part of the river we discovered the day of the biking tour...we did a big walk and finally we appeared in the same place as always: the colleges near the river...So we went to the library to watch a film in the mediatheque (or something like that) but we couldn't see the one we wanted because it wasn't in the library database so we saw some short movies about "horror" like Jack the Ripper (it was Jack the Ripper singing a funny song while hitting women)...Then we all went to the meeting point and later to a park for playing cricket with instructors. It wasn't as funny as the day we played alone in Parker's Piece but it wasn't bad. The main teacher was a show-off and I didn't like him, he made me laugh because everytime he bated he said -Yeah!- and he was all the time like he was the best but he was fat so he couldn't even run.
After the cricket session, we went to do the shopping without the teachers and then we went back home. After having dinner we went on doing the scrapbook until very late and then....zzZZ...zzzZZZZ

DAY 16 (Sunday,Grantchester)
In the morning we went alone because it was morning off and then we went to Parker's Piece where we had agreeded to meet the teachers to go on a biking tour to Grantchester. We took the bikes and we all went to Grantchester with the guide and two more women. The landscape we saw was amazing and Grantchester was so nice! We had lunch there and we went back...then we had some free time and Alicia and I went to the cinema to watch "Brave". We liked it a lot and we understood everything...Then we went back home (some of us came across in the bus) and we had dinner. After that, we went to bed after a tiring day!

DAY 15 (Saturday,day off)
It was the day off so we had completely freedom for a day. Alicia and I wanted to go to Wicken Fen, a natural reserve, so we got up early and we went to the train station to buy the tickets to Newmarket, a town near Wicken Fen in which we had to catch the bus for going there and it was also famous for the horse races. That was our plan but at the end everything turned out to be something really differen't...we went to Newmarket but in the Information Center from there they told us that there wasn't any bus to Wicken Fen and neither from Ely...So we coulden't go to the natural reserve. Then we asked for the horse racing but under-age people couldn't go alone so we decided to go to Ely (the town from the other day) to do a walking route there. We catched a bus to Ely and we did a loooong walk near the river.We had lunch in a beautiful place and we went on...we rested a bit on the grass and then we went to the bus stop for going to New Market again to catch the train. We got asleep so when we woke up we saw a poster saying "Newmarket" so we thought we were going out of the town and we got out of the bus there but the truth was that we hadn't even got into town. Then we realised that in forty minutes we had to be in the train station that was in the opposite side of the town...the last and further building...and we hadn't any money for taxis nor anything. So we had to run non-stop for forty minutes and then we catched the train that took us home. It was an adventure day!!

DAY 14 (Friday,London)
We had to have breakfast at half past seven. We went to London by train and we arrived at King's Cross, Harry Potter's station. The trip was an excursion that we (the students) prepared.We made a list with the places we liked to visit and we invented a route, (although the teachers made some changes in the program,hehe).
First we walked through some streets and important and famous places in London. Then we went to Camden Town and we ate there...it was great, I liked Camden Town a lot...there were a lot of strange things like some kind of fishbowl with little fishes that bit the feet when you put them into (and you had to pay for that). Also the sellers let you change the prices...it was wonderful and there were a lot of punks.
Then we met Pilar and we went on filming cultural videos about London monuments. Finally we had some free time and then we had our packed dinner in Hyde Park. There we had a little adventure: Luis,Pilar,Alicia and me were sitting on some chairs we found and suddenly a guard appeared and said: -It's £1.50. (Whaaaaaaat??!!!!) And then Pilar said: -Oh, so we have to leave. And the man said: -Yes, but first you have to pay. And finally he only charged us for three chairs instead of four.
We had a great time in London and then we came back. In the train we met some special guys:
-First one > An old and fat man who was eating non-stop and slopping all the food and the water on the floor.
-Second ones > Two drunk men that tried to talk to us but we didn't understand them. Also they had a strange way of sleeping, they slapped us on our heads.
-Third ones > They were two young men trying to be frienly to us but they smelt so bad and when they saw Helena covering her nose they started saying: -It's not us...the smell comes from the outside.
It was very funny for us.

DAY 13 (Thursday)
In the morning we went to the library and in the afternoon we went to the river to do interviews to the owners of the narrow boats. My group and me did two interviews to two different men. The first one could speak Spanish and he was very friendly but the second one was bald,ugly and not so friendly...Well it was interesting! And then we went home for doing the reading club. After having dinner we went on doing the scrapbook. And then we went to bed...thinking on the following day: London...(it will continue)

DAY 12 (Wednesday)
After having breakfast we went to the library (I'm sorry if you get bored reading this but...(I can't change the reality) I can't make it funnier although I have tried it) Well so I can jump to the moment we had to go to Harry's (the speaking corner) but we didn't go in because we thought that it would be better to go home and have dinner because later we were going to go to a Shakespeare play. So we went home and we played a game that consisted of trying to describe known people to your team.Then we prepared dinner and we had it and then...we went to Trinity College to see the play! It was very very funny and the place was great because you could sit on the grass or in the chairs...We were a little bit cold but we enjoyed a lot (all of us).
After that we went home and we went to bed very tired but glad.

DAY 11 (Tuesday)
In the morning,we met Claudia's boyfriend in the guest house.Then we went to the library and we did the same as always...writing the blog,the diary and the magazine.We had a lot of free time for having lunch and in the afternoon we went punting.I was really looking forward to doing it.Our punter told us some stories,leyends and history about the Colleges and the bridges.He was very funny because he was a little bit surly. The shame was that we had to share the punt with three Chinese women that were taking photos of EVERYTHING.I put my hand in the water and then I noticed that one Chinese woman was pointing to my hand in the water with her camera...At that moment I didn't know what to do: laugh (because it was funny) or cry (because it was too exaggerated) ...this Chinese tourism...
After that we went home,we had dinner and we played a game that consisted of doing a character that Claudia and Maria gift to us and one was the murderer but only he/she knew it.A person was killed so in the funeral we had to act like our character saying the things we had in our script and trying to guess which one was the murderer...It was really funny because as the game was going on the secrets were revealing...We all had a great time,haha...

DAY 10 (Monday)
We got up at 10, we had breakfast and instead of going to the library we did our blogs and our diaries in the guest house but we hadn't got enough time. We went to the center of Cambridge to have lunch and then we went to an American Cementery.We had to do an exercise and find two names...in the begining we were looking for them in the graves but we finally found them in the list of not found soldiers (The Wall of the Missing)...After that we went again to the center and while Maria and Claudia were doing the shopping in Sainsbury we did the shopping for the scrapbook. When we arrived home we prepared the dinner and after having it we did the scrap book.But it isn't all because just before going to bed we had to do our blogs in one computer so we went very tired to bed.

FIRST WEEKEND (Friday, Saturday and Sunday)
I'm not going to talk about Friday morning because it was the same as always...The most interesting thing we did was attending Taekwondo lessons...it was very fun and we kicked a lot...the teacher was very serious but he was cool.After that we had a picnic in the park and we went to Andy's again...It was a nice day!
On Saturday we went to Ely,a beautiful town near Cambridge and we did a lot of things :We visited the church,we had some free time,we did a boat trip and we went to a huge garden with horses and perfect hills to do the croquette!
Sunday was the day off so I went alone with Alicia to look for the information we needed and we visited some new places.That day we slept two siestas in two different parks...the second one was because I felt sick so we had to lie for a while and we no_ded off in the middle of the park.
And at night we saw the Olympic Games Clausure...it was wonderful,and at half past twelve we went walking to a natural reserve to watch the shating stars rain...we were there for a long time watching the sky and at three more or less we went back home!
It has been a nice weekend!

SIXTH DAY (Thursday)
Hello again, this day is the sport day! In the morning we didn't do anything important but after having lunch we went to a huge park to play cricket,frisby and football. It was very,very funny...these English games...The most ridiculous one was a game that you have to stand separating your legs in a circle so your feet must be in contact with the next one. Then you have to get down and you have to mark goal making the ball pass beetwen someone's legs and you have to avoid someone marking goal beetwen your legs but you can only use your hands. It was very funny because if someone marks goal in you, you must put in the same position but having my back to the players... We had a great time and later we did the reading club (in the same park). We explained our books and a boy came to us and said:-Hello ,I'm playing football but I have a punishment and I have to talk to someone unknown, so...what are you doing?- And he started to talk a lot...Five minutes later he finally said good bye and he went away...he was very "heavy".
When we got home we prepared the food and we had dinner and then... . . . HORROR NIGHT!! We all got into the same room and we told horror stories without lights...I scared the girls a lot but it was very nice and funny but that night Laura and Helena didn't want to sleep alone so we took another mattress and we slept the four girls together! haha =]

We all got into the same room and we told horror stories without lights...I scared the girls a lot but it was very nice and funny but that night Laura and Helena didn't want to sleep alone so we took another mattress and we slept the four girls together! haha =]

FIFTH DAY (Wednesday)
In the morning we went again to the library so, nothing special but in the free time Alicia and me went to three colleges and we saw all the beautiful gardens. We also got into the "Private Proffesors Zone" and in the kitchens! What an adventure... you probably had liked to see our faces when we were coming out the banned zone, trying not lo laugh because there were some people... We also did some funny photos that belong to a set called "Keep Off The Grass". It consists of a lot of photos that show me smiling behind (or near, in difficult cases) the placard of "Keep Off The Grass", of course standing in the grass. You will see the collection if Alicia puts it in her blog! I have to say that I'm proud of having done a "keep off the grass" in King's College, haven't you seen big placard and the perfect grass? and the scary guard?
Ok...going back to the telling... Later we all went to a place where you can (have to) speak with other people. I met two funny guys that made me laugh a lot (but they did it unwittingly). And at night we went to have dinner in a pub for trying English food and after that...chan chan chaaan...the fanatic club!!! It was a place for meeting different people and talking with them or playing with them (or going to the church with them)...They were Christians and a little bit crazy. We ate pancake and we spoke in Spanish with a protestant Catalan girl...so you can imagine... We also played table tennis with a lot of boys (teenagers) and we laughed lot because they were perfect for a comedy show: there was an Italian boy that stinked from ten meters away,a Japanese boy that remainded me of Kira (a murderer from a series) and a motivated fat man...all of them laughed at me in my face because every time I hit the ball I sent it to the other part of the room. And finally the last thing (but not the less important) was my flight... We were crossing a street and I fell down but in a very curious way: I FLEWWWWWWWWWW!!!! I flew from side to side of the road. Everyone laughed, including people walking throuh the street...I did the angel jump! (joke by Maria) And that was the last interesting thing of the day, good bye!

FORTH DAY (Tuesday)
Hello! Let's start with another day...uff...what a lazy feeling now...Ok, so... After having breakfast and all that, we went to the library (again) and we did the blog, the diary and the magazine (again). But at lunch time we hadn't got bread for the sandwichies so we had to go to the supermarket to buy it and we made our sandwiches in the middle of the street...our Spanish sadwiches made of chorizo and lomo... Well after that we were walking and relaxing through the streets. Oh, I have an anecdote to tell you about Luis: He ate one hot dog of the largest size they were selling and when he finished it, after thinking for minutes, he went back to buy another hot dog...both with a lot of sauce...
In the afternoon we filmed a lot of videos about the city in which we had to be like the tour guides... It took my a lot of time... I didn't like so much that activity but finally I did it and we can fix it in the computer with that modern thing called Movie Maker, hahaha... it is all under control! Now, for finishing the day... we had dinner and we saw the July videos. They were very funny and we showed to Maria and Claudia the song of the platypus (ornitorriiiiincoo, ornitorriiiiiincoo) and even Maria went to bed singing the song...

DAY A DAY
FIRST DAY (traveling day,Saturday)
Hello,this is the first time I'm writing in my blog,I have just created it...and it has taken me a loooong time.Well, I am about to begin writing how we are living here,what we do,what we have done and what adventures we are facing.(it sounds very strong but actually,it isn't so hard)
So...let's see how we came here...Once upon a time, there was a little group of people going by car to the airport in Sevilla....oh, just joking...I'm not going to tell you the story like that, but as I was saying we all went by car to the airport and we did all the heavy tramits you have to do at airports.Well the most interesting thing from the plane trip was maybe the guy who sat with Alicia and me. He was English so we could speak about him in Spanish. It was funny because Alicia and me were doing Spanish things (like laughing loud, speaking loud and maybe hiding rubbish until the rubbish bag came through) so I think he had a bad time, or maybe he enjoed us...The thing is that we arrived safe and happy to Cambridge.
As it was at night we didn't see Cambridge but the Guest House was very confortable...and so were the beds...oh,yeah ,they were my best friends that night!
SECOND DAY (Sunday)
It was the first morning there and it was really good... We had breakfast all together in the table outside the bungalow with the sun shining upon our heads.(strange thing, by the way) The first movement we did was going to the center of Cambridge to visit the Grand Arcade in which the library is.We had free time at lunch time so Alicia,Luis and me went to a jazz festival we found in a letter...We went to a curious shop from which you could see the beach...strange thing in Cambridge, no? Well...I 'll tell you the truth: there was a kind of window with a screen reproducing a video of a beach full of people...it was funny watching people looking at us while we were looking at the window saying: Oh,the beach! That people have to be very cold outside! I think some people laughed at us...they had reasons for it...
So, after the free time we did the shopping and we were scared when Claudia said to us: -Choose a flavor for the soup because we have soup in our menu.
We chose the chicken soup without thinking it twice. We went back to the Guest House and we cooked and eate our dinner that wasn´t so bad.
After that we played a funny game and we went very happy to bed!
THIRD DAY (Monday)
After dressing up and all those things, my working group and me prepared the breakfast so quick and so well that we surprised Maria and Claudia. But that morning began the 'hard work': We all went to the library for doing our blogs and our diary...the computers here are a bit shitty and you have to do a lot of things and change
computer a lot of times asking for more time only for creating a blog (for example).
We ate in the sofas of the library (watching people passing throuh the window and commenting about them) and then we had some free time that we used for relaxing and exploring new and strange shops...I do apologise for using all the time the word 'strange' but seriously, people here are crazy! Well, going back to the telling... After the free time Claudia told us a lot of things while we were visiting the places she was explaning. We saw a lot of colleges and universities (they were all very beautiful) and we also saw great gardens and punts (each punt with its strong, handsome punter, jiji). We also ate fudge and saw a curious clock made by an old student of Corpus Christi College (I loved that clock). Then we had some more free time after agreeing to meet at half past six at the bus stop. At half past six sharp we (only the students) were at the bus stop and the bus was also there but not Claudia nor Maria...So we started to hear Maria's and Claudia's voices as a recall: -The buses here don't stop if you don't call them! -The buses here don't wait for you! -You have to be awake!... So...the result was this: We got into the bus getting very nervous because we thought we were going to lost it and we went back home without our teachers...But they could arrive alive!
So it was my turn to cook and prepare the dinner and so I did (with my group). While cooking we met El Alegre, a guest from our house who never says hello (nor anything) and he always seems sad. Having dinner we met The Poland, a sigilous guy who was cooking and sometimes talking to himself. We had to speak in Spanish for talking about him. But if you speak in Spanish you could also win a "spanishment" (joke coming from Alicia). And after dinner we started to do the scrapbook, with a lot of colour. And then...(the magical moment)...TO BED!! Actually, no...Alicia and me were talking and reading runes a long time...but, that's a secret.
