Two crows but not whiskey!

Dear all,


In the morning we started to with our lecture from the side of Gorreti and Marco. The lecture was about social responsibility and the opportunities in tourism.  Quite interesting but the break was something special (not just because of the break!) because we realised that that Kaja is incredible storyteller.
Kaja told us a story about two crows that had an excursion to Postojna caves. She is a great story teller and we really enjoyed! Before we continue would you like to hear it as well? ;)


Two crows and a gossip lady in black

It was a sunny day in the middle of July and the heat just started to rise (it was noon, around 12 o’clock). There was a juniper three just next to more than 50 years old pine, looking towards the Postojna caves. When the first grasshopper started to sing the old crow passed above the three tops and landed on the old pine three. Taking grasps of air to continue the search for food another crow was interested in the ants beneath the juniper three. To further observe the ants the crow land just next to the old crow. Old crow starts to smile to jung juvenile searching for food. “You can forget about  that ants. You will never be able to catch enough to fill your stomach”. Jung crow got upset an said “ what do you know old rag!” You can barely fly for more than 10 minutes before you run out of air”!  If you do not believe me go ahead and see! The old crow said. Young crow started to pick the ants but she only garbed one or two and the rest fled to their underground holes. Old crow started to laugh “I told you, you little brat!” What do you know about the food? Where do you get it?” The youngster replied. “I will tell you the secret but before you have to fly to Postojna caves and bring me the proteus (human fish).”
Wanna hear how the story ended? Well you will have to wait till tomorrow when we will have another morning break and Kaja will continue with the second part.


After the lecture we had lunch, with very good steak with potatoes. At 15.00 we started with our workshops, where we  discussed about our ideas for  final presentation of WS.

Later on we had a goodbye party for Portuguese teachers Goretti and Marco. It was hard to say goodbye, because of that we said see you soon!!
