Bye bye Polen

Today was our last day in Poland. We started the day at school were we had a quiz about Norway and Poland, before we ate a lovely lunch together. We ended school early and spent the rest of the day packing and spending time with our partners. Everyone met at the airport at 20:00 to say goodbye. Now we are waiting at the airport since our plane for now is about four hours delayed.

Eating lunch at school. The students brought different types of food and we all enjoyed them togheter.

This is “Pierogi” a polish traditional dish, which we all got to try at lunch today.

Here we are at the airport taking the last pictures of this trip and saying goodbye.

We are going to miss you so much :'(

Right now we are eating food and relaxing at the airport.

We are really tired but soo grateful for the wonderful time we have had in Poland. We can’t wait for you to come visit us in Norway! J

 

Day 5 in Poland

Today we have had yet another busy but exciting day. We started out with a visit to the museum of History of Polish Jews. After this we had a tour of the National Stadium and then ended the day with a visit to radio Bajka. Here we were interviewed about our exchange and recorded for it to be played on the radio.

The museum of History of Polish Jews was very nice and educational.
It was opened in Aprill 2013, so it was a new and fancy museum

The tour of the National Stadium was really cool. It is a huge stadium with space for more than 58 000 People. It is used mostly for football matches and it is the home stadium of Polands national football team. It is also used for conserts and other big events.

 

We recorded different interviews for Radio Bajka, which is a children’s radio. Some of the interviews were sent directly on air and some were recorded to be played later. It was a truly fun experience J

Here we are recording a Norwegian lullaby about a troll-mother singing for her eleven troll-kids. Both Norwegians and polish are singing.

 

 

 

Tomorrow is our last day in Poland and we are meeting at school for some evaluation activities.
