On 23 April, 2017 class 2.O. started their mobility to forestry school in Vic en Bigorre in France. At 8:45am everybody got in the bus. We went along a highway through Hradec Králové, Prague to Rozvadov border. There we stopped at Mc Donald for a hamburger. The way was ok, but ten kilometers in front of French border the engine started smoking. Mrs driver stopped to find a fault. The fuel tube was broken. We had to wait for a mechanic arriving from the Czech republic with a new one all terrible night..

We woke up after horrible night which we spent in the bus on Monday 24 April, 2017. Most of us were cold. Luckily the assistance arrived around 9am and they brought a new fuel tube. During our waiting we didn’t escape of the atention of German policeman, who came to check us. When the fuel tube took a new place, we were rescued and we were countinuing in our journey. We were playing some games to make our journey shorter. We were mostly playing „ČIM-ČONG“. At the same time as on Sunday our bus surprised us again. But it was definitely the end of the bus life. So we had to call SOS on highway. When the service arrived our teacher tried to manage how to finish our journey. At the end we were accomodated in a garage where we spent another night in the parking coach. Some of us were sleeping on the floor and some of us were using the seats.

We woke up on Wednesday morning and another hard but beautiful day started. After tasty breakfast we visited stalactites’ cave, where we had a tour with French explanation so it was very nice. The tour in caves was ended with a short boat trip. On a way back we stopped at café to have a cup of hot chocolate and tea. A few minutes and kilometers later we had a picnic under a shelter in the square where we played a couple of games. After lunch we went to luxury spa „Spa thermal de cauterets“, where we could relax and gain energy after hard past days. We enjoyed Jacuzzi, sauna and even outdoor swimming pool with gorgeous view to Pyrenees. Relaxed by spa we went to school to have official dinner where we were all of us, French students and their teachers closer together. Tired but happy we went to beds in the evening.
