Siena and San Gimignano

Siena and San Gimignano - Photography Competition

My day of rest!! I just wanted to get on that bus and not think about any museum appointment. Much as I love Art Museums and Galleries, it is quite stressful keeping time with 22 teenagers. I am sure you understand.





The coach ride was very pleasant for all. We arrived at Siena at 10.30am and kids and teachers were ready for the photography competition. Each student has to submit one favourite photo and email it to me by the 17th April. The plan is to print and exhibit all chosen photographs and to invite photographers, such as Mr Ian Refalo and Mr John Grech to pick the two runners up and the winner.





Is it a winner?















The group at San Gimignano, out of the pouring rain!


After a very relaxing morning, strolling, basking in the sunshine, taking pictures, shopping (of course!) and lunch, we set off for San Gimignano. Another relaxing coach ride and another beautiful town. San Gimignano is famous for home made ice-cream and torture museums. We decided to sample the ice-cream and skip the torture!


We got to the hostel for another relaxing evening of billiards, swimming, sauna and gym!!
