First day.
The departure from the front of the school was at 5.45, so we had to wake up at about 5 o'clock, which wasn't easy. Fortunately nobody slept in and we reached the airport right on time. Flight to Riga lasted for 40 minutes and from Riga to Rome for 2 hours and 50 minutes. When we reached Rome, a taxi was already waiting for us. We took our belongings and drove to the hotel where we were staying. After we had settled in, we decided to go sightseeing and our primary destination was the colosseum. We didn't have chance to see it from the inside so we did pictures of the colosseum from every outer corner.
From there, our direction was Vatican, where we also visited some souvenirshops. Before heading hotel, our teacher wanted to show us Spanish steps and I'm glad that we went there, because the view was very beautiful. When we arrived back to the hotel, everybody was tired, so after taking showers we fell asleep immediately.Second day.
Our day started with packing our bags together again and then we drove to the airport to fly to Palermo. The flight didn't last long and when we reached Palermo, our tension was at highest point because we were about to see our hosts for the first time. After we had introduced ourselves to everybody, we went to meet the rest of the families. We had some free time before we had to gather again in their school. When we got there, the Italian students made some presentations and after that we had free time.
All the students got together in the English Garden nearby, where we chatted, laughed and had very much fun. When it got dark outside and it was about the time to have dinner, everybody left and that is how the second day ended.
