Visit to Murcia / Ymweliad i Murcia
Ar ein dydd llawn cyntaf yma yn Murcia cawsom y cyfle i weld yr ysgol a siarad gyda’r myfyrwyr yna.
On our first full day in Murcia we visited the school and had a chance to talk tothe students there.
Ar ôl egwyl yn yr ysgol aethom i ganol y ddinas lle cawsom y cyfle i gwrdd â gwleidyddion lleol. Soniwyd am gynllun i brynu beics i bobl Murcia a chreu lonydd beicio er mwyn hybu byw yn wyrdd yn y ddinas.
After break in the school we went to the city centre where we met local politicians. They told us about a plan to buy biketodo the people of Murcia and how they will create bike lanes in the city to encourage green living.
Ar ddiwedd y dydd cafodd pawb cycle i flogio amdano eu profiad o Murcia (gallwch darllen rhain isod).
At the end of the day everyone had the chance to blog about their impression of Murcia (you can read these below).
Murcia -Enero 2012
The weather is slightly cold in the mornings but lovely in the afternoon.Everyone we´ve met seems really friendly and rather talkative which is really good and their english is pretty good too(luckily-cause they speak really fast spanish; well, to what we´re used to anyway). It was nice to walk around Murcia and get a sense of the place and how the spanish here live – like school in the morning, siesta in the afternoon and late dinners.
Last night we watched an awsome programme in spanish- it was a competition to win lots of euros where the competitant had to line up a row of glasses bottles upside-down followed by a shot glass(the right way up) then place a ping pong ball on top of the first glass bottle and blow it along in a straight line so it would land in the shot glass. Their skill was AMAZING!
First day in Murcia, Elinor, Lydia
Leaving Bristol cloaked in snow we headed towards Alicante where we were greeted by pale January sunshine. An hour´s journey on the bus introduced us to the delights of the Spanish landscape, rugged, masculine yet poetic and beautiful. The hotel, a bijoux locale sat in the dappled light of the setting sun and the cosy irrestibility could not help but impress. After settling into our functional abode, we set off on the tourist trail of the town. Golly, what a cathedral! The atmosphere oozed heritage and its impressive frescoes added to its gravity. Unfortunately our stomachs began to clamour for sustenance and they were not disappointed. The meal was a carnivore´s delight but a vegan´s nightmare. A good night´s sleep later and we rose to the inky black darkness of Murcia in the morning. After a tantalising breakfast we left the hotel heading for the school with a spring in our step and joviality in our hearts. It may surprise the reader to learn that our presentation produced palpitations and flutterings not unlike butterflies (mariposas). With our lavish linguistic lightness of tongue we could not fail to please. Riding on a tidal wave of adrenaline we proceeded to the canteen chattering merrily to nuestros nuevos amigos. Then politics wagged its bureaucratic finger and bashfully, we answered, filtering into the chamber of commerce where we learned about Murcia´s dastardly plan to put its residents on velocipedes. Our experience reached new heights following our visit to the museum. Forsooth! Who knew that Murcia used to be a Muslim stronghold? Well, we do now. And so, we wended our weary way back to Casa Emilio where we enjoyed a light repast of pasta followed by a cold collation. Rubbing our satiated stomachs with glee contemplatively, we retired to our bed chamber for a siesta. Roused from slumber yet much revived we moseyed on down to the little bodega on the sunny side of the street supplied with a dramatic backdrop of the municipal centre. Salud! Feeling sun-kissed and rested, we assembled eagerly with our fellows bound for the Maristas school from which location dear reader, I bid you over and out.
Murcia Trip – My First Impressions
We arrived in Alicante airport. The scenery was spectacular. The sky was clear and you could see as far as you could. We then took a bus to our hotel which is called Casa Emilio. We visited a school called Marista. We had a tour of the school, it has 3 floors! There’s 300-400 in this campus and around 1400 in the other campus!! In the school we had a lesson on how to make a pinhole camera. The pictures it makes are amazing. We had a tour of the surrounding area. there are many old builduings, and they’re very tall. The only down side is that i have to climb around 100 steps to get to my room in the hotel!

My impressions of Murcia
My first impressions of Murcia was that a lot of the buildings were old, this was very beautiful. I liked the hotel´s food on the first night, it was very undercooked, i think i ate a live cow.it was bleeding
My impressions of Murcia – Thombo
I feel that Murica is a welcoming city with many friendly people. The city itself was beautiful it had a warm feeling (not only the weather but the place itself too!) to it and it is very colourful and easy on the eyes. The school that we visited was big and old and had a lovely architectual side to it as many of the other older buildings within the city have, the people there were very welcoming and had exeptional english linguistic skills for people living full time in the south of Spain. The students as well as the teachers were very welcoming and quickly made everyone feel welcome and were willing to start and get involved in coversations as both sides discussed how they feel about the area and the differences between the welshand spanish ways of living.
