Field Trip!

Today my Spanish school took me on a field trip to Copavic, a glass factory in a nearby town. It was facinating! I never realized how cool glass blowing is!



This is my teacher, Claudia, giving the glass blowing a shot. She is such a fun teacher and she speaks in a way that I can mostly understand (I think that makes me like her extra).


This guy is using scissors to cut out any dirt or bubbles from the hot glass.



They keep the finished product in this fire pit for three days to cure.


You would never guess that this fireball would turn in to a giant twisty vase. It was incredible to watch the transformation.
