My year on Tarquilla


Last year was amazing. We have travelled from England to Gijon in Spain living in Tarquilla.  

 

My favourite place so far was Santander because of the airport.                  

 

The best thing we have seen was the Bay of Biscay because it was so big, it made you feel small, you could only see fish and marine life and sea but no land for about 3 days and it felt very deep.

 

 I loved it at Brest because of the trams and bendy buses but mainly the tram opening day because we got free rides on the brilliant trams it was great to look out the front and watch the points and things coming up ahead and watching the back of the tram at the stations as he was keeping an eye on the back of the tram on the monitors, and we could see what the driver was doing.

 

It is very useful to have space for bikes, even if you have to dismantle them, so you can get them out very easily so we get them out more often. We have got them out 4 or 5 times, mainly where it's safe for bikes.
