Victory!


Hi everyone!

About two weeks ago my class went on this amazing trip abroad. Even though I couldn’t go on the trip with them, that week was everything but boring...

I went with my orchestra for the competition “Golden Sardana” in Lloret de Mar, Spain. 

It was a really long bus ride – about 35 hours one way. We arrived there on Tuesday. The competition took place on Thursday so we had some free time and also we practiced a lot for it. The competition was in two parts – stage performance and parade. During the announcement of results on Saturday everyone was really excited. Everyone impatiently waited for the results. Out of 8 orchestras from Poland, Czech Republic and Malaysia we got first place in all parts of the competition. We obviously were really happy with the results and could go back to Poland with these amazing results.

A marvellous adventure.

 Two weeks ago I started the greatest school trip of my life. We travelled to Berlin, Paris and Dresden(furthermore we slept in Frankfurt), although I believe that the best of all of this cities were Paris and Dresden. The artists' hill - Montmartre in Paris - has the vibes of romanticism and calmness as the Pacific ocean in the golden hour. The early evening view from the mountain with Basilique Sacre-Coeur behind me was one of the best experiences in my life. My second favourite place on this tour was Dresden's old town. It has very dark, medieval mood with stunning baroque buildings. They were really outstanding in comparision to the shining, broad river - Elbe - while it was in the colour of the stormy sky.

I will surely remember that trip for a very long time!
Thanks for reading my blog! Cheers!!!
