A story of the weekend
Once upon a time a group of teenagers from Viedma went to La Nancy Manor to find out who was the killer of Prince Rupert, a well known person.
They were playing and looking for clues during the weekend. They have had an excellent weekend, but on Sunday they had to solve the mystery of the murder. And finally, at six o’clock p.m. they came back to their city!

Only this weekend
This weekend was a great experience.
This weekend there were only 4 counsellors.
Usually there are five councellors.
Despite the unusually low number of counsellors we were able to have a great time and it allowed us to work well as a team.
Andrew tought us some good yoga poses and Davin told us all about Alaska.
Maybe one day I will find myself in Alaska doing Yoga!! Amber and Beth helped us with our videos and spelling.
We had so much fun!!

Kissing Rugby
Yesterday, November 3rd, we all played a really funny game called kissing Rugby. In the game, as you can imagine, there were lots of kisses.
The rules were simple, we had to be in our knees with the hands in the back, making two lines, boys in front of girls.
Fernando, gave the boys letters and the girls numbers; he put somebody in the middle and called a number cross a letter. The game’s objective was to kiss the person in the middle, but someone would try to stop him/her. For example, if there was a girl in the middle, a boy would try to kiss her and another girl would try to stop him by kissing him on his cheeks.

The Customs
When you arrive to “La Nancy”, the first thing you notice, apart from the beauty of the place, of course, It is the Customs. In this, all the counsellors have to wear clothes that make them look like FBI agents of Hollywood movies. The customs, is like a type of control that prevents students from keeping things that can affect in some ways, the nature of the English Immersion Programmes, like things with Spanish inscriptions on them or any drugs or alcohol.
In my case, I was a little nervous, becouse the night before we travelled, I had been covering everything with colour, so that they didn’t discover any word in Spanish. I thought they were going to take my clothes! But that wasn’t necesary. In the end, my control was succesful, and there came the hardest part: the oath.
In the oath, you have to swear, with a hand on your heart, that you are not going to speak Spanish at any moment, or you will suffer the consequences. At that moment, they made me swear not to speak Spanish, or I would be tortured!
But that, of course, was a joke. Instead of this, you are made to write a composition like a punishment.
