Excursion to Dartmoor

Image
On Wednesday afternoon we visited  Dartmoor National Park, one of the last great wildernesses in the UK with a lovely landscape. It  was designated as a National Park in 1951, it is a countryside of huge richness and diversity stretching across 368 square miles ( as big as London!)  It's a landscape quite unlike any other, populated by lofty granite tors, mysterious hut circles and standing stones, ancient woodlands, sturdy clapper bridges, rushing streams. We have seen wild ponies over the landscape, we have walked and enjoyed the landscape. At the end we visited a tiny village and had a nice snack.

Sports activity

We have enjoyed Thursday afternoon at Torquay Park, in front of the sea, playing sports. A nice football match, signing up Portuguese boys to play too and a volleyball match with Italian and French classmates. Our activity leaders organized all of it.

Visita al museu de Torquay: ens han donat tot de preguntes que hem resolt tot visitant el museu, on hem vist una mica de tot: construccions de Lego, un espai reservat a l'escriptora Agatha Christie ( ja que va viure molt temps a Torquay) ... Peces de Lego Here we can see The Big Ben! At night we went to the caves, we made a terror tour. Some people disguised as monsters explained us a scary story.
