Our trip to Navarra

Our Trip To Navarra

On friday 20th, after school, we went to the Avenida de Séneca to catch a bus that will take us on an awesome journey to Pamplona in Navarra. The first surprise we got was the fact that there were tablets on the seats you could play on. After a quick stop for some fresh air and another 2 hours in the bus, we arrived at the Hostel. We all chose a bed and then hurried downstairs for supper. That was the second surprise (or dissapointment) I got. Potato tortilla for supper! Yuk! I tried to finish off the sixth I had in front of me for the sake of my allergies, but I just couldn´t. After the meal we all proceeded into our bedrooms to sleep. It was already about 9 pm. Anyway, we mucked about a bit and then we lay down at last.

Saturday was the big day. We arrived at La Única's field at about 8 a.m to find we were the first team to get there (excluding La Única). I'm saying this because there was something else we didn't realize there were other teams in the tournament. There was a  particularly nasty french team that started fighting for no reason at all. Well, everything went a lot better after our game against the french team (which we won). We played against La Única, the game resulting in a 18-18 draw.

 For third time we had a ginormous (and I mean ginormous) paella that disappeared off the plates as if by magic.

 We were then given the trophies for participating and got back on the bus. We were taken to a beautiful park with a variety of different birds. There was also deer. After a tour of the park, we stopped at a BMX park and ate some sobados before the bus took us back to the Hostel. There were sausages with potato puré. Yum! Sleeping time was the same as yesterday.

On Sunday 22nd was the day on which the semi-finals of the cup of spain were celebrated. We were taken to the VRAC's field in bus. There, we watched the game, where we lost. After congratulating and comforting the players, we piled back into the bus and drove back to Madrid.
