On Monday 18th of February, the Dutch people and the science students went to ”
Collserola
Park” to see the different vegetation of
Catalonia. We had to meet at Rubí train station at 9 o‘clock. When all the students arrived, we caught the train to “Baixador de Vallvidrera” and we went to the park. We stayed at the entrance of the park for a short time o eat something and make groups of two Dutch persons and two Spanish persons. The teachers gave us a paper to do activities and a machine to calculate the temperature. It was raining and it was very cold… Afterwards we walked a lot, and we went to see a documentary. When the documentary finished we returned to Rubí.All the people went house to have lunch and we stayed in until 5:30 in the afternoon, when we met in St. Patrick’s bar, a bar where we meet all these days and spend a long time, because we like to stay together. The bar is in the centre of Rubí, and the Dutch people like it. Some Spanish people stayed in the bar with the Dutch students because they know already the dance that the Spanish girls will have to do the next day atthe party. The rest of us went to one girl’s home to practise the performance a little bit because some Spanish girls have to go on excursion with the Dutch and won’t be able to practise. We rehearsed a little bit and some of us went to St. Patrick’s to meet the Dutch people to go home because later we were going to have dinner at a Chinese restaurant near the theatre
La Sala. Some people went to buy the things to do “Cabaret” the next afternoon and afterwards to “Esbart” because some of our classmates sang and danced there. When the recital finished we went to the restaurant, we had dinner, we laughed…together and when we finished we had a problem: to pay, but finally we could pay and some people went home to sleep because it was 1 o ‘clock and the teachers had told us to be early at home and some people stayed a little bit more speaking in the street.
