14th Day Wednesday 19th September - Washington DC - BY PAULA GISPERT

14th Day Wednesday 19th September - Washington DC

On Wednesday, even the trip wasn't finished yet we could start feeling the nostalgia of these days, all of us were thinking on Friday, when we were going back to Spain. So, to summarize we woke up early and took the metro to have the privilege of visiting the Pentagon, the United States Department of defense who's in charge of coordinate and supervise all agencies and functions of the government concerned directly with national security and the United States Armed Forces. There we went for a walk through some hallways with a guide who explained some details and showed us the indoor 11th September memorial. Subsequently we move 200 meters from the building to the outdoors to see the other 11th September memorial. Afterwards, we took the metro again to go to the last destination, The Arlington National Cemetery where rest in peace 400,000 warriors, which fought for their Country. Besides, there's John F. Kennedy's grave. It was a great and kind of hot day.

13th Day Tuesday 18th September - Washington DC by Oana Danis

On Tuesday 18th September we woke up at 6am like every morning, we took Sofia's car to went to Flint Hill School, to take a bus that takes Guillem, Tània, Yoss, Judith, Andrea, HuiLun and I at the school where they study the children of Flint Hill.When we arrived, we went to see the little children and we played ''la bomba'' with them. We surprised a lot because they didn't use ''la bomba'' when they play, they use another word. When the game was over, we went with the biggest students in the school and we spent 20 minutes asking questions for them to learn Spanish. At the end of the classes with the Flint Hill School students, we went to a tour around the school. I liked the day because I learned a lot about what they do at Flint Hill School. I really like the education system used by teachers. After visiting the school, we went to the other School, at Flint Hill School to have lunch. And finally we took Sofia's car to back home.

The school was really big and clean, and it even had a theatre! Later, we have come back to Flint Hill Highschool to have lunch and then we have attended some Spanish and History classes.

The 12th day I got up in the morning and I go with my partner to the school. When I was there I met my friends and we went to Washington D.C. When we were there, we visited the Library of Congress. After that we walk to a National Air and Space Museum, it was amazing, there were a lot of planes and spaceships. Then we had lunch in front of the Capitol, and started raining a lot!! We went inside the Capitol and we made a guide tour. When we finished we went to the school and everyone has gone with his partnes in his house. I was all the afternoon at home, but I liked it because we watched sports on TV. I really liked baseball and football.
