Before we got on the bus a lot of people were taking pictures.
We had a 2 and a half hour bus ride to get to Delphi, everyone was very excited.
When we arrived Maura was waiting for us she brought us to the conservatory where we ate our lunch and talked about what we would be doing and the rooms we would be in and who we would be staying with. We met an English school when we were there, there were 100 from their school in Delphi. After lunch we went back to our rooms and got ready for surfing.
At 2 o ‘clock we met in the hall to get on the bus to go to the beach, when we arrived at the beach we had to change into the wetsuits that were very WET & COLD. We got our surfboards and ran to the beach. Before we got into the water we learned how to surf on the sand. After that we did some warming up exercises which included running, push ups etc.. When we were all warmed up we got into the FREEZING cold sea. We were surfing for an hour. At the end most of us could surf pretty well. When we were finished we went back to the changing rooms and took off our wetsuits (They were quite hard to take off!). We went back to the centre and got ready for dinner. We had horrible spaghetti bolognaise for dinner but a lot of people said they were vegetarians so that they didn’t have to eat the meat! For dessert we had chocolate ice-cream which was REALLy nice.
Our night activity was a forest walk so after dinner we went to our rooms to get changed into our waterproofs and tracksuits. The forest walk was really long, boring and a bit wet. After we had supper which was bread and butter with jam. To drink we had tea. Some people were lucky enough to get toast.
After supper we had around two hours before we had to go to bed. In that time a few people got to know the English while others had showers or just relaxed. Our night guard’s name was Shelly and she was really nice!!!!
