Hello everyone, but specially MARC, ALBA AND SERGI, who wrote sweet, sweet messages to me on the blog. Thank you all three. I love you too, Marc! And I miss you all.
You know, today is April Fools day, something similar to "el dia dels innocents" in Catalonia: people make jokes, pull pranks on friends and have fun.
You have fun, too!
Have a nice weekend!
I miss you!

A VISIT TO SEUTON PARK
The Leopards tell me they are learning lots of things about forests. Near Aberdeen there are not many forests, but farmlands. Last weekend I visited Seaton Park, a park in Aberdeen, with lots of trees, so it looks like a forest. Have a look!

I'M IN ABERDEEN, SCOTLAND
dimecres, 16 de març del 2011
Hi, everyone!
Marta told me you have received a postcard, so you all know where I am.
I'm in Aberdeen, a city in the north east coast of Scotland. It's near the North Sea and between the river Dee and the river Don.
It has got two universities: I'm studying at Aberdeen University, which is the oldest one.
It has got some nice parks and lots of shopping centres. It's a nice city, but I prefer Barcelona.
Talk to you soon!

A VISIT TO ALEHOUSEWELLS SCHOOL
dijous, 3 de març del 2011
Hello, everyone!
Today I visited a school. It's a primary school: all classes are together, there are not real walls! They wear a uniform (red sweater and grey or black trousers or skirts). They start at 9, finish at 12.15, have an hour for lunch, start at 1.15 again and finish at 3.15. Some of them eat food from the school and others bring their packed lunch (you'll see some pictures of their lunch boxes).
In some classrooms, two different years work together: years 1 and 2, 2 and 3, 3 and 4. Isn't it strange? They work a lot and behave really well (they are very autonomous).
Look at the pictures: there are no children because I was not allowed to take pictures of them.

EYE AND NOSE CONNECTION
dimecres, 2 de març del 2011
Hey, Explorers, look what I found in an eye-clinic webpage !
The eye is connected to the nose like this:
The eye is connected to the nose like this:
Then, the nose is connected to the mouth; so, everything is connected!
Now, we know something more about how our body works, don't we?
NOSE AND MOUTH CONNECTED
Wow, your hypothesis are great!!! You have thought a lot! I'm very happy you worked so hard! No problem you wrote in Catalan, I know it's difficult!
I'm still studying it, but I found this in Wikipedia:
I'm still studying it, but I found this in Wikipedia:
Can you see? The nose and the mouth are connected, you were right!!!
Try this: put something in your mouth, chew it and taste it. Then, pinch your nose with two fingers, put something in your mouth, chew it and taste it. Is there any difference?
Mmmh, now I have to find out if there's a connection between the eyes and the nose and the mouth.
You're great scientists. Well done!
A QUESTION FOR THE EXPLORERS
divendres, 25 de febrer del 2011
Hey, explorers. I've got a question for you. I think I know the answer but, can you help me?
Last Monday I went to the doctor: he told me my eye is ok (hip, hip, hurray!).
But to check it, he put some yellow drops in my eyes. Then, I had a strange taste in my mouth and when I blew my nose, my snot were fluorescent yellow!
Do you know why???

Hello, everyone!
Hello, everyone.
I'm sorry I have not written for so long, but I've been really busy, with lots of work from University.
I know you've been working hard in English.
Some of you already know where I am. BUT THEY'LL KEEP THE SECRET!
What about the rest? Do you know?
I miss you. Take care!

DAY FIVE
dissabte, 12 de febrer del 2011
On Friday we have been to the city centre. Here are some pictures I took
They cal it the silver city because many houses are made of granite and they shine with the sun. But I haven't seen it, because it's not very sunny!

Hi, Explorers!
Hi, Explorers!
I miss you all! I love you very much, too!
Thank you very much for your message.
Yes, I have used the medicine for my eyes. They are better, next Tuesday I'm going to the doctor. Thank you very much for everything.
Pol C: I didn't get dizzy on my flights because I took some pills.
Still don't know where am I? You have to guess. Someone in your class already knows, but it's a secret!!!
I'm having a great time: I have new friends. They are six Catalan teachers. I have also met some people from the city. They are very nice.
I haven't got new students because I'm a student here!
Today it's raining a lot and it's very windy.
I'll send you some pictures I took yesterday.
I love you and I miss you.
Take care

One clue: the flag has got only two colours. (Erik, do you know it?)

Hi, Sci!entists
divendres, 11 de febrer del 2011
Hello, Scientists!
How are you? I'm quite cold, but very well, thank you. I'm having a good time here.
I miss you too!!!
The weather is very different from the one in Barcelona: it changes a lot. It's also colder. Today, the grass and the cars are covered by frost.
I like this place: the city is a bit grey, but the people is very nice.
I go to University everyday witha six wonderful Catalan teachers who are my friends now, but I don't have any friends from here, yet.
My eyes are better, thank you very much for asking.
I love the music here, and also the traditional dancing: I want to go dancing some day.
I haven't got time to watch TV, so I don't know if I like it or not... Maybe during the weekend I have more time.
I miss you and I love you, too.
Thank you for the message!
By the way, where am I?
An easy clue: have you seen Harry Potter? You remember the Hogwarts Express? The real train is here!
Talk to you soon

Hi, Early Humans!
How are you!
I'm a bit cold, but I'm ok.
I share a flat with a Catalan teacher. The flat is very nice.
Don't you know where am I? Guess!
The name of the city I am begins with an A. This morning I'm going to visit it with a guide to tell me things about it.
My eye is much better,thank you for asking.
I'm enjoying it a lot, but I miss you.
I'm happy you're enjoying your classes, too. Be good to Marta.
How was the Auditory? Sure you had a great time!
I have to go. Enjoy!

Hi, Dinosaurs!!!

Hello, Dinosaurs!
I miss you too!
I'm fine, thank you. It's a bit cold here, but it's sunny.
I go to University everyday, and learn lots of new things. I'm studying.
I cannot tell you where I am: you have to guess!
Here you can find seals and dolphins, and small animals in the forests like squirrels or pine martins.
I miss you a lot, Dinosaurs. Here, I do not teach any children, I only see grown ups.
Take care and be good to Marta
Lots of kisses
Maria

HELLO, ICT!
Hello, Technology class!
I'm glad you're happy.
I'm happy too.
I miss Barcelona: the sun, the good weather, the food, my family and friends... I miss you too!
Still don't know where am I?
There is an important harbour in the city I am, and two universities.
People drive on the left here.
Do you need more clues?
Bye, and thanks for writing!

DAY THREE
dimecres, 9 de febrer del 2011
Today I went to University.
Yesterday I learnt many things about the history of the University.
I also learnt that the city I live in is between two rivers, just like Barcelona. In Barcelona, the two rivers are the Llobregat and the Besós. In here, the two rivers have three letters and the two start with a D.
Cheers!

DAY TWO
Hey, day two is Tuesday.
Tuesday is recycling day here. They do not have different coloured containers as we do: people leave the bags with paper, plastic and cans and the lorries come to pick it up.
Look at the streets this morning:
