2. Our plane from Istanbul landed at Adana airport in
the evening. Some of the Turkish teachers were
waiting for us there. The Estonian and the Italian
team arrived about an hour later and we all went
to Tarsus together.
The Polish team were already there because they
had arrived in the morning.
Our host families were at Cleopatra's
Gate. We were excited and happy to
see them. We went to our Turkish
homes and spent the rest of the
evening with them while the
Teachers went to their hotel.

3. It was our first day in
Tarsus. In the morning, we
went to school where the
Turkish teachers and
students welcomed us.
After that, two people from
each team went to visit the
the district Governor. There
they drank tea and ate
biscuits. The rest of the
group went to a shopping
centre where we all met
again later.

4. We ate in a very beautiful restaurant called
“Toy Bahçesi”

5. After lunch we visited the Tomb of
Daniel the Prophet, Saint’s Paul
Church, Forty Spoon Bazar and
Ulu Cami (Mosque).

6. We returned home with our host family. Then we had
very tasty food for dinner and in the evening we went
to a disco and we danced and sang together. Later we
went to a café and we talked for a while.

7. We went to the school and
we prepared a Handicraft
Corner for each country
with a few samples and an
exhibition of our traditional
handicrafts. We had a
workshop activity on paper
marbling.

8. In the afternoon, we had lunch in the school and we visited Cleopatra Gate, The
Seven Sleeper's Cave and finally we had free time because the night was going to
be very long. In the evening, we had a Turkish dinner with traditional food with
the local authorities.

9. After dinner each country showed their rituals and we had an
exhibition of traditional costumes. It was really amazing and
enjoyable.

13. We were very sad because it was the last time that we saw
some of our Turkish friends. We had to take a bus to
Mersin. When we arrived in Mersin we visited the Forum
shopping center and we ate in a restaurant in the Marina.

14. In the afternoon we visited Canytellis Ancient City, Elaiussa
Sebaste, Porto Calamie, the Hell and the Heaven, Damlatas
Cave and finally Kizkalesi.
In the evening we had free time.

15. We spent some time on the beach
and we went on a very interesting
tour of the area.

16. We ate in a very beautiful restaurant by the sea. It
was really amazing.
In the evening we saw a wedding and we enjoyed
ourselves very much.
At 10:30 we had to say bye bye because
we had to go to the airport since our
plane back to Spain left very early in the
morning…
