Getxo Volleyball

We spent the first week of Easter, between the 4th and 8th of April, in Ancona (Italy) playing in a tournament called "Easter Volley" in which Italian, Serbian and American teams participated.
The 4th of April, we headed to Madrid from the bus station Termibus and drove for about 5 hours. Once in Madrid, we got in the plane and flew to Bologna. It took us about 2 hours and a half to get there, and once we got to Bologna, we rented a car and a van and headed to Ancona, which took us about 3 hours. In Ancona, we stayed at a resort called "Natural Village".
Next day we got up early in the morning, because we had to play 3 games, one of them in the morning and the rest in the afternoon.
After some problems to find the sports centre, we played the games, but didn't get good results, as we lost the three of them and couldn't qualify for the quarterfinals.
The fifth day as we had to play in the afternoon we had got free time, so we used it to stay in the resort relaxing, going to the beach and taking photos. the match we played in the afternoon wad against an italian team and we beat them 2-1.
the last day of the championship we had to play for the 13 and 14 places in the classification but we weren' t lucky and we lost the match. After having lunch we went to an amazing sports pavilion where the final match took place with a very high level where the team of the united states became winner. When the final game finished the awards where given to the winner teams and after that everyone got something as a reward of participation to end up with a happy day we went to have dinner to a restaurant and later we went to a gelateria to take an ice-cream.

Finally the last day, April 8th, we woke up at 3.30 am to go to the airport of Rome, as the trip lasts four hours from Ancona. The flight was Roma Santander and after flying we had another two hours of travel to arrive to our houses.
