8/7/2015: Dinosaurs, magical bread, Castellers...

After the free day came another working-day.   

We woke up with “Alegria” as always, and we had a NICE breakfast with Nutella.
We kept working around the cave. And then, we all went to the pool to get fresh water and to see a dinosaur, that hides behind the plants and pool water… (Nessie)
We ate typical Spanish food like “paella” or “bread” (bread was amazing, it was soft and tasty {It can’t be broken, impossible}).

During the afternoon, we kept working on two different activities: experimental pottery and pottery lab. The experimental pottery is about creating from dry clay a beautiful pottery using techniques from prehistoric times. The Pottery Lab is not as interesting as the other workshop but is an essential part of the archaeology: cleaning, searching or looking for bones, potteries, materials, drawing and scanning their shapes. (The most boring activity ever)

 Experimental pottery, really interesting.

Pottery lab, REALLY interesting.

Afterwards, we had to opportunity to meet the Castellers of Begues called “Els encantats”. That’s a popular catalane tradition which consists of building human towers.
Some volunteers had the chance to participate.

Maximum happiness getting on top of someone.

"Castellers" tower.

We had a weird experience during the night. After the soccer match, 4 boys came to the playground and threw chairs for fun.

To sum up the day in few words: waking up, work, pool, dinosaur, lunch, magical bread, workshops, Castellers, dinner and little sleep. (A nice day).
