TRAINS & BOATS & PLANES
What I'm proposing here is a journey round the world. UNFORTUNATELY we cannot give up attending our daily lessons at school, so let's use our imagination. What about writing together a journal of our imagined trip? Ok, ok, I will start the first paragraph, then you can follow with one each..., and remember: the journey never ends.
I got up very early because I was feeling very excited: I was leaving Constantí for a journey around the world! I had said goodbye to my family and friends the night before (there was quite a lot of crying), so I left right after breakfast. I went to Tarragona by bus, and there I caught a train to Barcelona. I had to be at the port at midday to get on a ship which was taking me to Cairo! So, that was my first adventure: getting to Barcelona in time.
Don't be shy, this journey is open to all the students at IES de Constantí but, you know, specially to ESO-4 students. Before starting please enjoy this video to find your inspiration.

I went with two good friends,a great company. We sailed across the channels in gondolas, it was really amazing. We visited the Basílica de Santa Maria della Salute and the Basilica di San Marco, we saw the bridges, are beautiful. At the night we went to the Theatre la Fenice, it's wonderful! and there I found at my friend from France.
So many places, some many moments, so many good friends! I started to feel it was time to go back home. I missed my family and friends in Constantí - I even missed my English lessons with Joan! So I said goodbye to Venice from the train which was going to take me to Milan. There I had to change trains, and I took the Talgo to Barcelona. After over twelve hours I was back in Sants. Finally, I faced my last decision: how to get to Tarragona, by train... or by coach?
