Swimming

One of the best sports in my opinion is the swimming. It gives you the opportunity to relax and have fun while training and at the same time finding coolness in the hot summer days. This time the pool wasn’t with mineral water and it was too small and shallow to make competitions and jump in it but it was enough just to stay their chatting and having fun. We even managed to create some games compactable to the size of the pool. Although it wasn’t the finest pool I have ever seen it was good enough in order to give us enough possibilities for more moments of joy. When we weren’t swimming we were having fun improvising a football game. The nets were too small and we didn’t follow many rules but we were laughing too much and spent a nice time.

Summer camp –collecting herbs

A few days before our  camp it was one of the Bulgarian celebrations – Eniov den or also called Midsummer day. It is also the patron day of our school and in order to celebrate it we decided to follow some of the traditions and to make wreaths from herb. There is a Bulgarian believe that there are 77 and a half herbs – each herb a cure for every disease and one for the disease that doesn’t have name. Another believe is that herbs are most curable early in the morning. We were trying to have a rest during this trip so we didn’t wake up very early but later during the day we went again on a walk trying to collect some herbs although we didn’t know much about them. However, we managed to collect some herbs and the easier part was to make wreaths which became very beautiful.

Summer camp – hiking

At the end of the year we went on a camp in Emen- a small village in the Balkan near Veliko Turnovo. This journey was on the one hand trip and on the other hand a way to finish our Group 4 project. During the time spent there we went on a long walk along the Emen Canyon where there was an amazing view over the village and the river. Although the way was difficult and some of the paths were too steep at the end we managed to reach a very beautiful place – a waterfall with a lake. It was one of the most amazing places I have ever seen. What is more, in the hot and sunny day after a long time walking it was nice to wade in the cool water and find some freshness. It was one of the coolest walks in the mountain I have ever had.
