«Kangourou» is an English competition organized by the British Institutes.

It has three phases: firstly you have to take a test in your city; then in your region, and eventually in Mirabilandia!

This year, the final phase took place in that famous amusement park the 13, 14 and 15 may, and I was there too.

I have been there with a teacher from our school, teacher Formentin, a kind person, so the journey to Cervia was good, although I had never travelled that much before.

When we got to the hotel, I met my room mates: Valentina, Federica and Giulia.

They are really pleasant and we taught each other some words from our dialect, which was a funny thing!

I'm really happy I took part because thanks to this I got to know wonderful person and... being there was fantastic!

The 2^nd day we had all the tests and in the afternoon, after our speaking test, we had some spare time in the park.

They had a ride on the roller coaster, the Ispeed.

I took a photo of them, just before a frightening downhill, and I'm glad I wasn't on that roller coaster...It must have been really scary!

After that we tried the other attractions, and even though it rained, we had a wonderful time.

The time passed really fast and before I could realize it, it was time to leave.

It's been a great experience and I'm grateful to everyone who helped me.

It taught me we should seize the opportunity because we never know what could happen!
