Photo 1: Marcin bowling
This is my friend Marcin bowling.Friday (09/05/08) - The end of the trip!
This day was a strange mixture of feelings for me. On one hand I felt “oh God, already?” and on the other: “Finally, it’s over!”. Alberto and I were driven to Vere Road at ten past eight to put away our luggage. After that school started (again…) at 9 o’clock. I forgot to mention that we were already in our proper skill level groups by this time. The lessons were probably one of the most boring experience in my life. We were trying to retype word for word a 10 line text. I really don’t get the point of this type of exercise. I mean I think that it doesn’t matter how you rewrite (or retype word for word…) a text as long as it get’s the general message through. So I was bored and started talking with a few Germans. In particular a girl named Claudia. It turns out she comes form Munich, is 16 and is as much bored and irritated as I am about these last lessons. We talked for about an hour or so. We got to know each other a little. She tough me a few words
Photo 2: Two Groups bowling
This photo shows my group and another bowling at Margate's =). in German and I told her a few words in Polish and French. After that it was Bowling time and the trip back home.
Photo 1: Marcin Bowling. Here we have Marcin bowling at Margate’s. I wasn’t really excited by going here because, well, after all it was the last day and I wanted to get it over with (Or maybe I’m just bitter because I was loosing all the time?).
Photo 2: Two Bowling Groups This is the photo of 2 bowling groups. The group on the right side is mine. The group on the left side is team 5 (I think). It was fun but ended too fast.
Photo 3: Playing Other Games. I have absolutely no idea what’s this game called so I’ll try to explain. Basically there are 2 players playing, 2 goals, a plastic disc that slides very fast on the metal floor and 2 pieces that look like thick leather gloves to defend both the goal posts and the hand that steers it. The point is to get the sliding disk into your opponent’s goal post.

Photo 3: Playing other games
This picture shows other games played at Margate's. mainland Europe. My friends and I awaiting the busses to take us back home to Brussels. I’ll let myself cite the name of an album of a music band that I listen to “ Chapter V: Unbent Unbowed Unbroken”. I think that best describes us after the trip ;]
CONCLUSION:
In my opinion it was a great and worthwhile trip! I had a lot of fun both doing the activities and sightseeing. What little fears I had before the voyage are now truly gone. This was a one-of-a-kind experience and I will cherish the memories for a long time! I think this trip has left me rich in cultural experience and memories!
