Lisbon Report

Our second day and first one at school, started with some break ice activities and a tour at the school, where we could meet the other students and have a lot of fun.

Then they explained and showed us one project that all Portuguese schools are doing now called DAC that is about water.

After this school activities we had lunch at the canteen and went to a beautiful park called Bela Vista Garden, when they explained us the nature that was there and collected some seeds, we also had a break and saw the Portugal match. 

Finally, we visited a little part of the center of Lisbon and had dinner all together.

Saturday 3

Today, Saturday, we have spent our time visiting a special place. We had to move to Vila Franca de Xira to enjoy of a huge habitat characterized by having some special conditions which allow animals to live in a perfect ecosystem. Also in there, they are studied and classified by scientists just for them to be controlled and protected. We have acted like ones by observing different types of animals and knowing even the deepest curiosities we could imagine. The explanations and activities were interesting, that's why we felt very glad to discover all that information about animals, concretly birds. The conclusion of this journey is the fact that people cause a rellevant impact on other human beings and we have to be aware of caring our home and the ones we share it to. On the way back, we crossed the bridge Vasco da Gama, which is 14 km long....
