LEGOLAND!!


 Today was a very good day!!! Why? Because we went to LEGOLAND!!! A theme park based on the most famous colorful bricks in the world... But let's start from the beginning.

In the morning, as always, we had classes at the College, but today we did something different, as we met the Polk State College Provost (aka the big boss), Martha Santiago, who really wanted to talk with us and know more about us and our English. We talked to her for about 15-20 minutes and then we continued with our classes.

Lunchtime arrived faster than the light and today we ate at Subway, the famous sandwich fast food place. It all was very yummy!!! And then, it was fun time!! We took our van to LEGOLAND and start enjoying the afternoon...

As you will see in the pics below, LEGOLAND is a theme park based on the typical bricks which one can use to build so many different things, such as houses, spaceships, pirate ships or other amazing stuff.... The thing is that, almost everything in this park is made of Lego bricks, and you can check out the pictures to see how amazing is everything... From the shops, to different Lego statues placed all over the park to an impressive and breath-taking reproduction of different American cities such as Las Vegas, Miami, NYC or Washington.

We really wanna thank Polk State College for this opportunity, as the tickets were given to us as a present, so THANK YOU Martha Santiago and other staff at the PSC for this amazing afternoon!!!










Bowling & Lake Selfies


Yesterday was a very fun day. We did a lot of things and we enjoyed a lot.


To start our day, we attended classes at Polk State College, as usual and then we had lunch at Chik-Fil-A, which is a fast food restaurant very similar to KFC, where they served a lot of chicken, nuggets and chicken salads. It was very yummy and as we don;t have it in Spain, it was a different experience.


After lunch, we went directly to a bowling in Winter Haven called Cypress Lanes where we spent 2 hours bowling, doing strikes and spares and having a blast, as you can see in the picture. After that, we played with some fair games such as basketball, cars races, etc.



And after getting with our host families, we stopped by a lake beside Polk State College where we took some selfies and we enjoyed the countryside.
