FIGUERES

Thursday, November 08, 2007


If you have heard about Figueres, it is probably because of this . This is Salvador Dalí Museum. The surrealist painter was born in Figueres and every year thousands upon thousands of people visit it. I highly recommend you to visit it, especially at night.
Figueres has other important museums to visit such us the Toys Museum and the Empordà Museum.

Even though Figueres is not a city with a lot of old monuments, it has some places which I recommend you to visit. One of them is Sant Ferran castle, which you can see in the following image.

You can find a lot of information about Figueres in its tourism webpage:

http://www.figueresciutat.com/vis-info.html

Here you can read about Figueres' history, its monuments and the best places to visit. You will also find a list with all the restaurants, pubs and bars where to eat and have a good time. There is also information about all the hotels in Figueres and their respective prices. Most of the hotels have a website where you can see the hotel and its most beautiful rooms.

WE ALL HOPE TO SEE YOU IN FIGUERES!!!

SAUS, the place where I live

Hi, everybody!

My village is a small one, only about 75 inhabitants live here, but it is also very quiet and beautiful. Nearly all the houses are old, stone houses, and the streets are made of stones, too.

I love living here because I live in a big house with a small garden and a terrace where my kids can play and I can relax. There is hardly any noise here, just birds singing and dogs barking.

During the summer and at weekends my village changes a lot, because a lot of people from bigger towns, like Barcelona, come here to rest. We live in a very beautiful part of Catalonia, called "L' Empordà" which is very close to the sea.

HERE AGAIN!!!

HI, everyone!

It's been a long time since I wrote in my blog. I have had another baby and I was too busy to write anything. In fact, I'm writing again because from now on , together with Catherine, from Novara, and Maria, from Porto, we are going to do an e-Twining project with our students. I hope that we all enjoy this project, which basically consists in writing in our blogs and giving information about our respective cities, countries and other things related to them that we find interesting. SEE YOU SOON!

SUNDAY, BLOODY SUNDAY

Sunday, 19th March, 2006
What's the reason of this title? I usually like Sundays because this is the only day of the week when my husband is free and we can do an outing the three of us- Laia, David and me. Today, however, the weather is horrible: it is cloudy and sometimes it is raining. I got up early in the morning to cook- I love cooking- " rabbit with samfaina ( a typical Catalan sauce)" , everything went well until we decided going for a walk to l´Escala. -Well, I thought, I will leave the meal nearly ready so that when we arrive I just have to cook it for about 20 minutes. We left to l´Escala. When we arrived home The meal was burnt. I had left the cook open!! So we had to start doing the meal again. Now it is about six o´clock in the afternoon. Outside it is raining. The best thing of the day has been seeing my daughter, Laia, eating chocolate, and enjoying my husband and Laia company, of course!

Hi everybody! This is my first time creating a blog. And I'm trying it because I want to use it with my students. And how can I encourage them to create a blog if I haven't created mine before?
Dear students, don't worry too much! THIS IS FUNNY! You just have to write about your own things and don't worry too much about the spelling- just a little bit- you can ask me any questions and I will correct your mistakes when you give me your address. HAVE FUN and WRITE!
