Tajos (02/05/18)

Our today's chores consisted on feeding pigs and repairing a fence.

In our opinion the pigs were really cute, funny and adorable, although a bit nasty too. We learnt lot of things about pigs, for example, they are always lying on mud because they don't sweat. We fed them with the left-overs from our meals. 

Later, we went to repair a fence since some wild pigs are able to get into the field, in which sheep graze. We had to fix one part of the fence and build another one. 

We reckon that the activity was nice, in fact, it was the best chore we have done so far :)

Nest workshop (02/05/2018)

Today we did workshops, there were about 6 different ones Yraya, Erick, Estefanía, Diego and Claudia did a workshop about bird nests; we created nest boxes for different species such as Herrerillo and Carbonero.

Firstly we repaired some boxes and made some holes in then in so that the water doesn´t flood. Then we put the boxes in the branches of the trees. One of them felt and broke in two.

We finally put one of them in a branch in "Mantillo", we wroted about it and went back.

How confident are we? (02/05/2018)

Our favourite activity of today is "How confident are we?", because it was very interesting and funny. In this activity we learned many ways to capture sensacion from the nature.

In addition we walked with blind fold on our eyes. Also we ate different types of food and we smelled a lot of types of plants 

In general we think that this activity was really fantastic because we love it.

Natural remedies and herbs(02/05/2018)

Today we did a workshop with Carmen. In Mateo´s house we made nutritive creams, face-masks and lipbalm(vanilla and lemon) and then we put on the teacher´s faces, they thought that their faces were smoothier. At the end of the workshop we all got some samples as a souvenir.

Tajos (01/05/2018)

Today we cut down the trees behind "Casa Fanlo" and cleaned up the dead plants. Then we made a human chain to move the woods to a safer place.

Before that we went to the town´s sewage treatment plant, we cleaned some dirty tissues, and learned how does it work. After the second breakfast we did a game about Búbal anthrophology. We learned about the traditions, farming, catle farming and the witches. Something that called our atencion was the black mass,, where the witches made deals with the Devil.

El Mentidero - The gossiping place!(30/04/20018)

Today we got to know Bubal. We did a couple activities about the places in our town, and now we are going to talk about one of these places. The gossiping place was a point in town used for gossiping. It is an uncovered bench, located opposite the mountains and the reservoir. 

It was a really important place used for exchanging information about all inhabitants of the neighbourhood. Moreover, they could also gossip about people that lived in other towns and passers-by. 

Currently, we do not have such a place, but we still gossip everywhere, especially on television and social media. 

In conclusion, we believe that gossiping has developed thanks to technology. As we all know, gossiping has always been very important in our lives! :) 

*** Do you know why it is called "El Mentidero"? It  has this name due to some lies that have been told there. We all know that not all gossips are true!

Tajo de construcción (30/04/2018)

El día de hoy nos tocó el tajo de construcción con el monitor Antonio. Primero recogimos las carretillas y herramientas y acto seguido tomamos rumbo a la entrada. Una vez allí nos dividimos en cuadrillas. Un grupo se encargó de limpiar la entrada, y el otro de despejar el patio de una casa.

El primer grupo limpió la entrada de la casa, que estaba llena de tierra, usando las escobas. El segundo grupo cargó piedras en las carretillas y los llevaron a un lado de las viviendas.

Cementry(30/04/2018)

Visit to the cementry. One of the first questions that the teacher asked us was: Why was the cementry buildt?

There were two reasons why the cementry was buildt:

• The first one was that there wasn´t more space in the church and around it to bury the people.
• The second one was that bury the people in the church or around it wasn´t hygemic, for the reason they buildt the cementry far from the town.

The oldest tomb is from 1887. The person that was bury in there was Don José Fanlo y Olivan. Besides, the most recent tomb is from 1968. The person that was bury was Don Julio Val Aznar.

There weren´t more tombs before 1887 because in the previous years the people was buried in the church. And there aren´t tombs after 1968 because the people left Búbal.
