My trip to Italy

WRITING:

Hello!

Today I’ll be talking about my trip to Italy, one of my favorite’s trips I have ever been on. It started Monday the 5th of Mars of 2018. At 3 a.m. we had to be at school with the bags because we were taking the bus to go to l’Aeroport Del Prat. When we arrived at Barcelona, we had to weight our bags, if it weighted more than 15 kg we had to pay 20€ for every extra kg, but luckily anyone had to do it. At 6:55 a.m. we took a plane to Italy, I was very nervous because it was my first time flying since I was 4 years old.

The 1^st day.

We landed in Bergamo at 8 a.m., everyone was tired. We took an italian bus to go to Sirmione. Sirmione is a beautiful city “close” to the Lago di Garda. When we arrived there, we went to eat the best italian pizza at a restaurant, then we went on a walk to see the big and beautiful lake. After the walk we took the bus to Brècia, then we went to Verona and there it was where we were staying for 2 nights.

The 2^nd day.

We woke up at 7a.m. to have a quick breakfast and then take the train to go to Venice. When we arrived we went on a walk to see the bridges and the canals, it was beautiful but the weather wasn’t nice and we had to go all the time with an umbrella, but it was fun anyway. When we arrived at Piazza San Marco, it was floated and we had to go on platforms to save our feet from getting wet. We visited the Basilica di San Marco and then I went on the Campanille di San Marco where I could see Venice from the top, it was beautiful and luckily at that time it was sunny. Then, we visited a glass museum. After that, we took the Vaporetto to go to the train station. We took the train and at the trip back we met some italians who now are our friends. When we arrived at Verona we went on a walk and have dinner, then we went to sleep.

The 3^rd day.

We woke up at 7 a.m. because we had to take the train to go to Florence. When we arrived, we had to walk a lot of time with our bags because the hotel was in the center of the city. We went to the hotel and then to visit Florence. First, we went to the Battistero di San Giovanni, then we went to the Campanille and many other places until it was dark. But before we went to sleep we went to see the big bridge of Florence.

The 4^th day.

We had breakfast at 8 a.m. and walking we went to the Galeria de l’Academia to see the big special statue of The David of Michelangelo Buonarroti. At the afternoon we went to the Galeria degli Uffizi. Then, we went to the cupola of the Duomo, it had 482 steps… When we arrived at the top we were very tired, but it was worth it. After that, we visited more Florence and we went to sleep.

The 5^th day.

We had breakfast at 8 a.m. and we took the bus to Lucca, a small village next to Pisa. We had some free time there and then we took the bus again to go to our final destination. We arrived at Pisa and we took the little train to go to the Pisa Tower. This day was the sunniest day and made Pisa look 100 ways better because of the colors of the monuments and the beautiful green grass.

Italy was my favorite trip that I’ve ever done. My favorite city was Pisa because it looked like it was a dream thanks to the sun. I wish I could repeat it again with my classmates someday, we had so much fun that I can’t wait to go there again!
