One week ago we went to Madrid , in Spain.
We left the 29th March from Jerzu and we returned the 2nd of April .
Well, I can say that for me this journey was a question mark because my health wasn't so good, but luckily I overcame it and went .
This journey particulary for me was a way to start: a new period, to come out from the daily routines and to visit one of my favourite countries and to learn better one of my favourite languages: spanish.
We arrived in Madrid at night and I was so tired but I liked so much the journey on the airplane !!!
It’s incredible when it starts to “run” and every part of you is attached to the seat,
it’s a strange sensation but give a strong adrenalin hail !!
In the hotel just the time to wash and then it was time to sleep!!!!
The fist morning in Madrid.??? Well a little shock to wake up , but there was the happiness in the air, the weather was perfect, and everything was ready!
Madrid was there for us... Or rather we were there for Madrid!!!
Every day there was a new place to see, a new smile to give and a new thing to learn.
I can say that I had some expectations for this journey and I thing that I didn’t just get what I wanted...
I got a lot more :D

The food in the restaurant "
la Vera", in the same road of the hotel, was so good.... I liked so much the breakfast : balanced, substantial and perfect for the kilometres that we did every day.
The dinner was good too and I liked so much “ paella” .
I hope to eat it another time!!!
We visited in five days a big part of Madrid....
In the morning the artistic heritage , and the night the amusement and at the same time the quiet of a very big city was organized very well.
We visited three museums : Reina Sofia, Tyssen-Bornemisza and Prado.
Reina Sofia was a modern museum.
Well i don't like modern art because I don't understand it , it's a type of personal art and if there isn't a person that could explain the meaning of every picture, it's so difficult to knew what the painter want to express.
But, only one picture was interesting :
the Guernica of Pablo Picasso, because we studied it at school.
We saw a thing that you've always see in a picture it's so strange. And above all it was so big, and i knew that was the most important picture. The guards were unberable, an obsession.
Yes ok, it's important to preserve the art but a little smile or few of kidness don't kill anything.
This is only a personal consideration.
Thyssen-Bornemisza i think that is the best of the all that I had seen. We staid here for two hours and i liked to see all the pictures particulary those when the subject was the nature. They provoked in me beautiful emotions !!!
And to finish the Prado.... We didn't visit all the museum because was....massive!!! I think that I've never seen a lot of pictures of every kind, artist and different periods in only one place !!!
For this we only saw the most important and those that we had studied at school as Goya.
In this museum we were all so tired because we had walked so much.....
I can say that the most beautiful place that we visited was the Royal Palace ........
Just I was without words......
Amazing...I don't know why but I was daydreamt. Really, in that Palace I had left my soul!!
No, just kidding but I feel an attraction for this types of places.
Every rooms was different, everyone with his colour, his charm, his peculiarity, his gold his richness.... as the "throne room" or the "ceremony room" .... I thought how could be live in a similiar place...It's my dream...Also only for a day !!!
When I saw " Train station of Atocha" I thought " will be a normal station. But not!! Wasn't like this!When you enter there isn't the difference between inside and outside.
This because it's so big but had a transparent roof. Why?? Well inside there is a strange thing... A forest in the middle of the station !!!! And also a little lake where there were a thing as 100 aquatic turtles.
Moreover in there was an monument that remembers the 191 victims that lost their life during an act of terrorism on the 11th March of 2004.
I can't forget Madrid by night .. I thing it's the only one!!
In Madrid there is the custom to go out every night.
For this also during the week the persons go to the pub or in the places and they walk, drink, eat, speack ... Well every day is a party!!! But also there were millions of people, Madrid by night was neat and clean as during the morning.
We went out all night and every night we went in a different way.
One time we went in a tradicional local of flamenco and we have enjoied so much !!! The flamenco was particulary and I liked the rhythm and the mouvements of this dance.
After the dance show , we, 3A decided to improvise a show !! We sang italian songs and we danced "Macarena " . So funny!!!! We drunk the typical drink of Spain : "sangria" . It's wine with fruit and hice....
An other night we went to " plaza Mayor" but we had seen it during the morning... There isn't comparision... By night it's another thing!!! Generally I felt the pleasure walking in Madrid:
in the morning because if you really want to explore and to discover all the beauties of a city you have to walk and walk ,.... During the night because I felt a sensation of relax and freedom to stay in that environment...The problems were so rarely and I had only a thought : How is beautiful Madrid.
I don't know but I was as in my home..
I've liked this city in all her parts... The peoples were kind , solar and comfortable.
The food was good , yes not as the Italy but was ok !
The way of communication were really so efficients. With one euro you have the freedom to decide in your hands.
I've seen a perfect Madrid... I've had a perfect journey and I want to thank the teacher that with their sacrifices have allowed this beautiful adventure...
Because SCHOOL is about this too!!!!! School of cultures... school of life!!!.
I MISS YOU....
