TRIP TO VALLADOLID

Valladolid center

          

In the bus

Last week, on wednesday we went to Valladolid. The teachers that went with us are Teresa, Luis and Gemma. We left Villamayor at 8:30 in the morning. We arrived to Valladolid at 10 o'clock.
We went to the center of Valladolid and we saw the square.

 At 11.30 approximately we went to a theater in Miguel Delibes. We saw and heared Contemporany music, it was called ' Vox Balaenae'. When the theater finished we went to had lunch in a park. Some people bought the food at the mall. 

At 5 o'clock we took the bus to Peñafiel. There we saw a museum of wine and the castle. There were beautiful views at the top. We took many photos and I like the visit. 

Then at 18:30 we took the bus to come back to Villamayor. In the bus we had a great time with the music. 

Peñafiel's castle

I hope that soon we will do another trip

GEOGRAPHY: LANDSCAPE

This landscape is in the Northe Pole. Is a polar climate that is situated at the cold zone. Annual temperatures are below 0ºC and they are even lower at higher altitudes, and rainfall is low. Precipitation falls mostly as snow; but at high latitudes snow is limited. Winter lasts eight months approximately,  and in summer it is very difficult to exceed 0ºC.
At the background we can see mountains of snow (glaciers) and the water that is very cold.
One of the animals that most represents the Arctic wildlife is the polar bear, but there are more like seals or penguins...
I chose this landscape because I like it.
