Day 1
Everything started at 18:30, when we had a meeting in front of the school, where a big white bus was waiting for us. When everyone gathered, we handed over the important papers to the teachers and gave the suitcases to the driver, who stacked them in the trunk like a jigsaw puzzle. After that, we could get on the bus, where began the game between life and death as to who would have the double seat for themselves and who would have to squeeze in with a friend for the next 21 hours. When we all sat down and counted, we were able to leave. On the bus we talked, watched movies, listened to music and some even managed to fall asleep. Every 3 hours we stopped at gas stations to go to the toilet or buy something. We drove calmly, but in the night the police stopped us if we didn’t pick up someone unwanted. The next day we arrived in front of the school, where our correspondents from France welcomed us. We distributed gifts, and then each correspondent brought his or her Czech penfriend to his home, and there we parted…

Day 2
7.10.2022
On Friday morning we took a bus to the island of Noirmoutier. We didn’t take the bus to the island, but walked along a path that is approximately 4km long and is flooded at low tide. On the island we went through the market and a few shops, got on the bus and went to the next stop. It was a small salt flat where sea salt was mined. This was followed by lunch on the beach where we took out our snacks and walked around the area. When lunch was over we boarded the bus and stopped for a short walk ending in a beautiful view from the forest, reached the school and headed home.
