Tuesday Infused with Kisses

Our morning started differently:

Reet tried to convince people (or herself) that she is athletic by posing for a morning run selfie


 Bret explored her hedonistic side by taking a morning bath:

This is niice..


The weather surprised us in the morning, Marika thought it had been raining.



So Jaak was puzzled.
He did not know what to wear..




What would you choose?





After having breakfast the hard work started.

Kissing one

 Second
 and so on...



eventually we sat down to do some less serious work :)


Meanwhile Jaak got busy woodcrafting, getting insipred by the Portuguese woodwork.


Not too bad for the first time!
And here you can see Jaak´s final choice of wardrobe. Predictable.

Now some hints of what we are going to do next:



See you in the evening!

Ms Kallas managed to lose her phone and they were looking for it with the flight crew when we were already boarding :)

We are still wondering if Yana Toom and Marju Lauristin skipped work today :D




However; Lufthansa did a good job and we arrived in Porto:


The view from our hotel balcony is not too shabby:


The watermelons and grapes are also not that bad


Seagulls are here as aggressive as in Tallinn


But now, octopi are awaiting

Typically Spanish

1) The timetable says we start working at 9AM

The clock says:

AND WE STILL HAVE NOT DONE ANYTHING.



MANIANA!


2) And in just a few minutes it is time to test some food. AGAIN!


Traditional LAMB LEG with CRISPY ONION RINGS

Traditional RISOTTO ALLA VALENCIA

That tasted..well... how can we say.. unusually unpleasant.

3) However, give us a 


Or a 


Grown in Spain 
and we will all be like


Food had no taste until this day.


4) An Estonian going to a Spanish school canteen:


Whenever you are ever wondering if students in Estonia are talking and laughing way too loud, think again. YOU ARE WRONG.

5) In Spain there are two options: you are either underdressed
A Spanish woman going to work

OR overdressed

A Spanish woman going to work

BUT you can be sure you are not dressed appropriately. EVER.

6) A Spaniard when it is 20 degrees outside:


An Estonian in Spain when it is 20 degrees outside:


Greetings from Spain, Valencia :)

Mystery of the Key, Getting Physical, Spill that Juice!

Sunday Evening and Monday Morning


Our day started off with driving to Tallinn. We went to the apartment where we were staying, and as we were almost there, our teacher Mariliis asked if that was the right key for that apartment. At first she asked it like a joke but it was true…we had the WRONG KEY.


Then the teachers went back to find the right key and we waited for them.  When we had dropped the luggage off at the apartment, we went to the cinema. We watched „Divergent“ and enjoyed the
 movie although we had to wake up at 4.30 am the next morning.


Today's morning was tough, we were picked up at 5:15,  we went to the airport and there we waited for Greete. After we had given away our luggage, we went through the security check.  Everyone went through the gate without any problems but Greete had to go through a bodysearch, beacause she was wearing a metal belt.


 After that we went to the plane, where we could have some juice and water. Maarja and Greete did not like the juice, so they spilled their drinks, as a result of which Maarja and Greete got wet. Greete looked as if she had peed in her pants. :D :D 



Good day.

Adventures that never end!

On Friday, all students had to leave their families and go to the airport. We had to be at the airport at 6,o´clock so we decided to go to shopping. At the airport we found a very friendly taxi driver, who was ready to take us to the mall.

We are going shopping!!!!!


The shopping centre looked like a labyrinth, so only smart ones could shop :D 
Finally we found the shops we were looking for. The first store was New-Yorker. 
We found a lot of beautiful things there.




After an hour of trying on clothes and deciding what to buy and what not, we decided to go to the checkout. When I (Gerli) started to pay, the salesman told me something that I couldn't understand. I asked him to repeat that sentence in English. He couldn't understand so he called another salesperson who told me that I had entered the wrong pin code, even though I had not, So now my card had been blocked.
I called my bank immediately, but unfortunately the bank was so busy I couldn't talk to anyone. I had to transfer my money to Stella's bank account and I

thought that yeahh I have money now!






but you wish, I had to wait for the money for almost 5 hours, so I was already ready to give up, BUT THEN, when we only had 15 minutes left MY MONEY HAD ARRIVED!! I 
was so happy that I wanted to buy the whole store!!!



but this wasn't all.






A new surprise was already knocking on our door. At the checkout it showed, that Stella´s card had a limit. I was so depressed, that I couldn't buy those beautiful things, but there was nothing to do.




We sat in a coffee shop and we began to go to the airport and we were running out of time, but then Stella looked at her account and the money WAS G O N E ....
We ran to the store again to show them that they had taken the money. At first they didn't want to give us anything, but after calculating and discussing they gave me the things I wanted to buy. When I walked out of the store, the security held me down. They found pants with a security element still attached to it. Of course, I had bought those and after showing the receipt the security let me go. At first we had to take a taxi to go to the airport, but instead we decided to go by bus. So much cheaper :)

Waiting for the bus


At the airport we saw a man, who was having his bachelor party.

        He didn´t mind taking a photo with us :)                 


At the Hungarian airport we didn't have to wait very long. We flew to Helsinki and then to Estonia.





I thought that suprises are over, but no. I found this at home...

     An additional something to remember Hungary by :D
