Anecdote by Elena Ruiz

Thursday 20th we went to the center of Wien, capital of Austria. In this place we made a touristic route and then we had free time to visit the city and have some lunch. We were in the most important place of the city, so everything was very expensive and we decided to eat in McDonald’s. The fast food restaurant was crowded, and there, as it is a touristic city there were a lot of people from different nationalities. Suddenly a popular song sounded and my group of friends started singing very low. For our surprise we started to listen an Italian boy singing the song too, but then a group of german girls follow the melody, and at the end other boys sang the same. That moment was curious because we realized that it doesn’t matter our origin  because it can link us by a song. And we had a funny moment because we made the queue more entertained with the melody “hey soul sister… “ 

Anecdote by Andrea Pardo

The day after our returning home we viseted Innsbruck, a beautiful city in Austria. There we went through the most important streets of the city. When we had a lot of free time we went to a special shop in the center of the street that made caricatures. We found it very interesting so Mariona and me decided to participate. Anthony, the artist, who drew the amazing pictures, was from England, so we tried to talk with him. After all we could communicate each other very well. Furthermore, he made funny jokes when he was drawing us, and we understood them easily!

My anecdote by Miguel Palomares i Arnau Pastor

Today at the evening we have gone to a funny land in the center of Wien.
Here we have done a lot of interesting things like going to the attractions of the park and we have ate traditional meals from Wien like sausages (and they tasted very good).
The most interesting thing of Prater is the wheel, because is the oldest wheel working in the world and appeared in films like James Bond and the Third man. We are exhausted because today we have done a lot of activities and now we are going to sleep. And tomorrow we will see interesting things like Cats The Musical. We hope over trip with this blog.
Best wishes for everyone.
Miguel Palomares.


Today, we have visited Wien,it's an awesome city.We stopped to have lunch in a McDonalds, when was my turn I spoke him Spanish but immediatly I had known that he didn't understand me. I chose a Mc Menu but the men gave me a salad, I told him that I wanted a hamburger but he didn't speak English, however after one minute trying to convince him, the men gave me the hamburger. This travel through Europe is giving me the opportunity to improve my English. Therefore I recommend to visit these interesting places that we have visit and what we will visit in the next days.
Best wishes for everyone.

The security guard

The second day in Krakow, we had free time to go out to buy souvenirs for our family and for us.
I was buying in the supermarket with my group when we saw a beautiful collar, but the assistant wasn't in there. Two security guards where near the shop. One of them started to talk with us, and asked about our nacionality. Se said that we are from Spain, Barcelona. Them we starter to talk about the F.C. Barcelona, or course in english, because he didn't speak spanish and we didn't speak poland.
In fuese situations is very important to speak english.

Sara Garcia

The show assistant

The third day of our amazing trip we where in Krakow. It was about eight o'clock PM and we had a little free time so Sara and me decided to go to a big supermarket near the major place. When we go there we didn't want to buy anything and when we where just about to leave we didn't know from where we could go out and Sara propposed to pass through the cash register and there we saw a very stressed woman. At first we asked politely to go out but she didn't say anything, so we asked again and again. At the end, as she didn't say anything, I gessed she didn't speak English so we slipped out.
Sometimes it's also good to know how to express ourselves through gestures!

My anecdote

Today, Wednesday 21st of March, we have gone to  The Abbey of Melk. Here we have visited a lot of rooms of this amazing Abbey built by The Royal family of Wien. 
An interesting room of the Abbey is the library, which has 100.000 copies of books. These books have useful information for people who wanted for example for do a investigation work of every type of science from the latest centuries.
The anecdote of the day is about the way of burying the dead people of the 18 century in the Abbey .  They used a coffin with a trapdoor  to bury the dead, because they only have one coffin in the village.
Tomorrow we are going to visit the city of Innsbrck , here everything it's okay, we hope that you are okay too.

Anècdota anglès Ferran Lucas dia 21

Today we took the bus in order to go to Salzburg. At five to twelve the police stopped us and we used an hour to have lunch. I went to a restaurant with some friends and I ordered spaghetti. Then I asked for some chicken and french fries. The waiter get shocked and he told me if I was sure about it. Then I told him that in Spain is common to eat a first and then a second but in Austria they only eat one thing. So I eat some food that my friends didn't wanted.

My anecdote (Patricia Garcia)

Today, 20 of March, I was in Mcdonalds asking for mineral water; I said 'I would like to drink a bottle of water' and the waiter said 'you will have it in two minutes'. Two minutes later, in my box I had a coca-cola and a fanta!It's sourprising how languages can confuse the communication between people, but finally, we could understand each other perfectly and I got my bottle of water without any other problems.

My anecdote

Today, in our free time, we spend time buying souvenirs and other beatiful and expensive presents. After going shopping, we decided to go to the Starsbuck where I asked for a frapuccino; when the waiter ask my name, my friends and I changed names and made a joke with the waiter, so he and we laughed a lot. We have had a good time together!

My anecdote

When we took the plane to go to Poland, the seats were desorganised and I had to set with an english man. I was taking photos when he started to talk to me. He was really nice and friendly and we talk a lot in English.
I realised that English is very important if you want to make friends and meet new people.

My anecdote

When we arrived the first day at Wien airport, there were a lot of exchange places to change the money. Since I need to change euros into zlotis, I went to one of this exchange places. I started to talk to the man in english, but then he answered me in spanish.
I was very surprised but he was really nice. English is very important to communicate with all sort of people if you want to learn and talk with somebody and make friends.
