Italy 2010, No matter what happens but how you live what happens

With 4 ESO, I went to Italy! Was a great experience because I wanted go to Italy and becase never I have exit of Spain for go on holiday (sometimes I went to Perpinyà or Carcssone but this are little exursions).
In this travel, first we went to airport of Girona. There we up to airplane for go to Milano, Italy. At 8.30am we arrived to Milano. In the airport of Milano, a bus waited we for go to Pisa. This travel was very boring becase was 4 hours in the bus.
When we arrived to Pisa we walked a little for go to the Duomo of Pisa. When we arraved we saw the Baptisterio, the Campanile (or Tower of Pisa), the cementery and the Duomo. In this photo we can see (from right to left) the Baptisterio, the Duomo and the Tower of Pisa.
The students can up on the Tower so I up on the Campanile with Sonia and other students. In this photo you can see me with Maria, Víctor and Manel (4th A)

After that Pisa we go to Montecatini, the place where is our hotel, the Hotel Miramonte.
The next day we go to Florence. For me Florence was funnier than Pisa beacasue Florence is bigger than Pisa. In Florence we saw the Duomo and we up on the Duomo. We could saw all Florence was a really great experience. The Duomo of Florence was one of my favourites things
of this trip.
In this photo you can see me in the Duomo of Florence. This place, the Duomo, is the highest bulding of all Florence so in Duomo you can see all Florence.







The next day we go to Siena. Siena is a little city of Toscany. There we saw the Cathedral of Siena and the Piazza del Campo. The Cathedral is very big, is spectacular. The Catherdal of Siena is a gothic Cathedral: very big and high, with statues and big windows. In the afternoon we go to Rome, the eternal city. We had dinner in a resturant of Rome and we went to see Rome in night: Fontana di Trevi, Piazza Nabone, Piazza Spagna etc.
In this photo you can see Fontana di Trevi on night













The next day we went to Colosseo. This place is a theatre of the Roman Empire so the Colosseo have got a lot of centauries. The steps aren't there because they were made of wood.
In this photo you can see me on Colosseo
In the afternoon we went to Bocca della Verita' and after we went to hotel











The final day on Italy we went to visit the Vatican and the Piazza San Pietro. Some students wanted went to see the Museo of Vatican so Isabel and Lourdes went with we for in to de museum. When we finish to saw the Vatican we went to bought some food for the ship. At 8.15 pm we said bye to Italy. The next day at 9.05pm we arrive to IES Castelló d'Empúries

Book vs Film

Question 1. SETTING:Places Where does the classical play and the new version take place? Example: Verona vs Verona Beach (place them in a map)

In film the places are more moderns: the fight of first chapter, in the book is in a square but in the film is in a gas station. The garden of the Capulets, in the book, hasn't got any pool but in the film has got a pool.


Question 2.. IMAGERY: metaphors and images in the film: WATER (swimming pool, beach, aquarium...) and FIRE (petrol station, fights...), DAY and NIGHT, the MOON. What do they mean?
The water appers when Romeo and Juliet are togeder. The fire appers when the moment is sad or is a fight. The metaphor is that water and fire are opposites and love and hate too. So fire = had or sad and water = life or love.


Question 5. ELEMENTS. To make the new version, basic elements have been changed. Example: swords for gun
In the new version for go to places that are very far the use cars and in book version no. Also in new version the castle of the Capulets is The Mansion of tje Capulets.

MotoGP

In first term I talked about Formula 1. This term I will talk about other motorsport: MotoGP. In my opinion Moto Gp is more intresting than F1 because in MotoGP the riders can fall to floor. My favourites riders are Dani Pedrosa and Valentino Rossi.
Dani Pedrosa is my favourite rider of MotoGP beacuse he's catalan and he is very modest and humble. I think that in this year he can be world champion. In the recent years he haven't got good luck and he fall a lot of time.
Valentino Rossi it's the best rider of all time. He have got 9 world championships and he win 103 races in 227! He began to run in 1996 and every years he win least one race.
My favourite Grand Prix it's The Grand Prix of United States in 2008. In this Grand Prix Casey Stoner and Valentino Rossi was fighting a lot of laps. Finally Rossi pass Stoner in a turn uneven.

My favourite football team

My favourite team of football it's Real Madrid. I'm a supporter of this team since I was little. This year wasn't good for R. Madrid because this team didn't win any cup. This summer Florentino Perez was win the eleccions and now he is the president of the club. He signed a lot of stars of football: Cristiano Ronaldo, Kaka, Benzema... For this transfers, the Real Madrid supporters are recovred the ilusion for win cups. I hope that this year the Real Madrid can win to FC Barcelona. They win all cups of 2009.
A lot of my friends are FC Barcelona supporters and when they win, my friends laugh of me but I do of they when Real Madrid win and FC Barcelona lose.
