Reflective time in Italy

During the Italy trip, I really liked the tours and the hotels and it is my second favorite school trip. The tour was sometimes hot because of the weather and how the museums were packed with people making it more hotter, other then that it was amazing because I got to feel what Italy was like long time ago and I learned things that I didn’t know because from the books I have read doesn’t say. The negatives of the trip was the food. The food was mostly the same pasta and chicken. The food was mostly the same and that gave everyone stomach problems. The food wasn’t healthy enough. Other than the food problems, everything was fun and memorable. During the entire trip, we had some good times and some bad times. The good times were when us students tried hard to keep our manners because our school has a bad reputation in Italy thanks to the current 9th graders and we also didn’t want to disrespect the Italian culture and not let Mr. Yenshaw and Mr. Roy down because it’s Mr. Yenshaw’s last year with us and it’s our last trip with him, and we didn’t want let Mr. Roy down because he has been on so many bad school trips where students were like animals and last we wanted Mr. Roy and Mr. Yenshaw to have fun because it’s their last year seeing each other and it’s our last year seeing Mr. Yenshaw and last year of Mr. Roy teaching us. The other good times were when we got to see Mr. Neeno sleep with a huge smile on his face, walking around town and feeling the architecture that was built during the Renaissance, and we found out how each student behave differently inside and outside of school, learning new things, and last being with our teachers. The hotels that we stayed at in Florence was decent but I liked the view a lot because right outside the balcony were nature. The hotel in Rome was the best hotel I have ever been to in my 14 years of life because the room was very clean, there were no problems with the bathroom, and it felt like home. The last hotel in Naples was the Holiday Inn, in that hotel, the paintings always scared the Jesus out of me because right above the bed were two paintings of cupid looking in a weird angle and the painting was also dark. The Holiday Inn was OK. I really had fun in Pisa, Rome, and in Capri because that’s where I took lots of photos and Adam R’s jokes that cracked me up. I really miss the sarcastic tour guide in Pisa, Ricardo because he tried so hard to keep us awake and not fall asleep during the tour. In Capri, there are four events I will always remember till I die. The first one is when Bakary said ciao to random strangers, the second is Bakary and the playful waiter Franco becoming friends and how Franco made Bakary pay for everyone’s food, third Mr. Yenshaw smiling like a kid when looking at the beautiful view of Capri, and four, Franco accusing Adam ELW and Selina are boyfriend and girlfriend and shouts out to the entire people of Capri that they are dating. During the trip there some things that I didn’t really like, and those were the food which I already explained why and not being able to see more of the historic sites we have been to because I really wanted to see more, and not visiting Venice. And that’s my reflection about Italy. I wish I could revisit Italy with my family, Mr. Roy, Mr. Yenshaw, Adam T and Adam W, Ali M, Selina, Bakary, Farida AB, and AbuKhare.

 And Mr. Yenshaw this is you as a character when you smile:

Sorry Mr. Yenshaw I had to take these photos:
