Blog: Spain 24.4.-28.4.2023
Sunday-Monday
In the Sunday morning we got to the train station at around nine and
the train left at 9.20. We traveled for about three hours to Helsinki
airport. Our flight departed at 15.15 and the trip went nicely. We
arrived at Malaga in the evening and then we got a minibus to Aguadulce.
Then we arrived at Aguadulce and our host families were waiting there
for us with a Finnish flag. Then we went to the houses of our hosts and
made ourselves at home. The families were very friendly and welcoming.
At Monday morning we woke up early, ate breakfast and left to Almeria.
There we went to the English Pier and we were sightseeing and then got
interviewed randomly by the Spanish news. Then we were just walking
around in Almeria and seeing cool places. It was very beautiful there.
Later we went to the beach and got to know our new Spanish friends. We
played volleyball and just chilled and swam.
Tuesday-wednesday
On Tuesday morning we left to the school and we met the other exchange
students from Croatia and Turkey. Then we had presentations about the
effects of climate change on agriculture. Then we looked around the
school and felt just like circus animals as the students stared at us
and were interested in seeing us. After a little break we had some
churros with melted chocolate. It tasted amazing. After school we went
to the beach and we had paddle boarding, sailing, surfing and cayacing.
We also played volleyball again. On Wednesday we visited the Giant
Geode. We went to a huge mine where the largest geode in the world is
located. After that we went to see the Mermaid Reef. The view was very
pretty. Then we went back to Aguadulce and hung out on the beach again.
Thursday-friday
On Thursday we took a bus to Granada and visited the oldest muslim
temple Alhambra which was majestic. There was way too hot. Then we went
to eat kebab with our new friends and did a tiny bit of hely-shopping.
Then we took the bus and headed back to Aguadulce. In the evening we had
a little surprise-party where we ate and danced with the whole group.
We were up quite late as we also had to pack our things. Today we woke
up feeling sad as it was going to be our last day in Spain. We took a
bus and left to Platforma Solar de Almeria. There we got to know new
things about solar energy. After being there we went to Mini Hollywood
Theme Park and Zoological Reserve. There we saw beautiful new places and
some very cool animals. Then we left to Aguadulce and went to the
beach. We said goodbyes and cried a little. It was very emotional
leaving our new friends there. Then we left with a big cool bus to
Malaga.
