On Sunday the 21st we begin our adventure in Italy. We took two flights, the first from Santander to Bergamo and the second was a bit complicated, since the Edna volcano had erupted. Our flight was redirected to Palermo, from where we spent our time alone the first night. The second day we took all the other alumni and teachers to Palermo, where we spent the day sightseeing and we all slept in a hotel. The third day we left ready, since we will use several hours by bus to the Reserva delllo Zíngaro, where we traveled several kilometers and took the strength to take a bath in one of the beaches. After this we went to Cannicati, the town where the Italian students are, and each one left with their respective host families. The fourth day was very complete, since we did several activities. We are going to visit the Valle dei Templi, Agrigento, where we explain a little about their history. Around twelve we took the bus and went to Scala dei Turchi. Here we all ate together in a restaurant next to the beach and several of us took a bath. Our day did not end, so every day we did not visit the Farm Cultural Park, a town where there was an art exhibition. We finished this day tired and we went to Cannicati, where each one was with their families. The fourth day began in the new morning, on the way to Gole dell’Alcantara. Located about 20 km from Taormina, the gorges are real canyons made of black lava walls up to 50 meters high, in the typical shape of a prism that the rocks have taken during the cooling process. After that we went to Taormina, one of the best known cities in Sicily. Here we have free time to explore the city. We went to Cannicati the last day before the return trip. In the morning we went to the Italian Alumni Institute. Here we studied the realization of the project and we delivered the diplomas in the library. After this each one left with their families and at 19:30 in the afternoon we all went to the palace, where we spent the night singing, dancing and eating at the farewell party. At nightfall there are many tears, as we are all very sad to have spent those nights, still very happy for the experience and the people we meet. The last day was the day of the Vuelta a España, we bought a bus at 9:40 in the morning, to Catania airport and from there a flight to Bolonia, where we went up for two hours and then I chose another flight to Santander. It has been a very nice experience for everyone and from which we have learned a lot. Never if we are going to forget the records created during this week by the people we know.
El domingo 21 comenzó nuestra aventura en Italia. Cogimos dos vuelos, el primero de Santander a Bérgamo y el segundo se nos complicó un poco, ya que el volcán Etna había entrado en erupción. Nuestro vuelo fue redirigido a Palermo, dónde pasamos nosotros solos la primera noche. El segundo día llegaron todos los demás alumnos y profesores a Palermo, dónde pasamos el día haciendo turismo y dormimos todos en un hotel. El tercer día comenzó pronto, ya que teníamos varias horas de bus hasta la Reserva dello Zíngaro, donde hicimos una ruta de varios kilómetros y tuvimos la suerte de poder darnos un baño en una de las playas. Tras esto fuimos a Cannicattí, el pueblo del son los alumnos italianos, y cada uno se fue con sus respectivas familias de acogida. El cuarto día fue muy completo, ya que hicimos varias actividades. Comenzamos por visitar el Valle dei Templi, en Agrigento, dónde nos explicaron un poco sobre la historia de estas. Sobre las doce cogimos el bus y nos fuimos a la Escalera de los Turcos. Aquí comimos todos juntos en un restaurante al lado de la playa y varios de nosotros nos dimos un baño. Nuestro día no había terminado, ya que todavía nos faltaba por visitar la Farm Cultural Park, un pueblo donde había una exhibición de arte. Acabamos este día cansados y volvimos a Cannicattí, dónde cada uno se fue con sus familias. El cuarto día comenzó sobre las nueve de la mañana, de camino a Gole dell`Alcántara- Localizada a unos 20 km de Taormina, la garganta es un cañón formado sobre roca volcánica con paredes de más de 50 metros, que presentan las típicas formas de prisma que se producen durante el proceso de enfriamiento de la lava. Tras esto fuimos a Taormina, una de las ciudades más conocidas de Sicilia. Aquí tuvimos tiempo libre para recorrer la ciudad. El último día antes del viaje de vuelta lo pasamos en Cannicati. Por la mañana fuimos al instituto de los alumnos italianos. Aquí estuvimos realizando el proyecto y se hizo entrega de los diplomas en la biblioteca. Tras esto cada uno se fue con sus familias y a las 19:30 de la tarde fuimos todos al palacio, dónde pasamos la noche cantando, bailando y comiendo en la fiesta de despedida. Al acabar la noche hubo muchas lágrimas, ya que todos estábamos muy tristes por tener que irnos, aunque muy felices por la experiencia vivida y la gente que hemos conocido. El último día ha sido el día de vuelta a España, hemos cogido un bus a las 9:40 de la mañana, hasta el aeropuerto de Catania y de allí un avión hasta Bolonia, donde hemos hecho escala de dos horas y luego cogido otro vuelo hasta Santander. Está ha sido una experiencia muy bonita para todos y de la que hemos aprendido mucho. Nunca se nos van a olvidar los recuerdos creados durante esta semana ni la gente que hemos conocido.
