On the bus to Assisi all participating students learned some facts when doing the quiz on their smartphones. A great idea of the Italian partner and one of the modern methods how to use the modern equipment and draw the students attention.

The Etruscan Well, also known as "Sorbello well" from the name of the noble family which still owns the mansion which includes the structure, is located in the old town of Perugia. Its construction can be presumably dated to the second half of the 3rd century B.C. And its purpose was probably to ensure an adequate water supply for the population.
Over the centuries the structure has been rebuilt several times, beginning in the 15th century, which suggests an uninterrupted use of its water reserve by the local community.
The Etruscan well is not the only example of this kind of structure in town. In order to meet the water requirements, a number of wells and fountains, both public and private, were built throughout the urban area. The reason for this was that the town had no water pipelines. Work on the first aqueduct for the town of Perugia started in the 13th century.

The monumental fountain was designed by  Frà Bevignate da Cingoli and built between 1275 and 1277 to celebrate the arrival of water in the acropolis of the city by means of the new aqueduct. Another co-worker was the melter Rosso Padellaio who created the bronze upper part of the fountain. In 1278 the marble tiles were carved and placed to Fontana Maggiore by the most important sculptors of the period Nicola Pisano and his son Giovanni.

Frà Bevignate da Cignoli the constructor of Fontana Maggiore cooperated with other talented professionals as Boninsegna Venezioano a hydraulic engineer who accomplished an incredible audacious challenge being able to carry into town the water coming from monte Pacciano without the help of pumps. By means of a forced pressure duct he managed to give to the movement of water the opposite direction and the water flew uphill instead of downhill.

In the morning we met for breakfast and then at 8.30am we went on a tour of Città di Castello with students from our Italian partner school.
The town is really very picturesque and full of historical monuments. The tour lasted until about 11.00, but if you really wanted to explore everything there is to see, it would take more than a month, let alone a few hours. The city tour ended at the Town Hall of Cittá di Castello where all participants were officially welcomed by the towns officials. In front of the Town Hall a local TV reporter was awaiting us to make an interview about our project.
After that we visited the school of our Italian partners. They prepared for us some beautifully performed songs of ethnic African music, dances and other examples of their work. It was really very pleasant and both the students and the teachers enjoyed it. Then came the lunch, which was also a very pleasant surprise as we were served by the students of the hotel's secondary school, who also prepared the five-course lunch. It was a little trip to a really great gastronomy.
It seemed that nothing would surprise us anymore - the opposite was true. After an amazing lunch, we went to Bottega Tifernate - a workshop that creates replicas of paintings by old Italian masters using original techniques. Our children tried the technique of transferring a painting from paper to a solid base, as used in the creation of frescoes, in a small WORKSHOP, which was very helpfully led by the owner of the workshop himself. The Bottega Tifernate workshop is world famous for its unique way of using original techniques and materials. Among other things, it works closely with the Vatican Museums and the world's leading galleries. After dinner we were happy to retire to our beds, because the day was really long and beautiful, but also challenging.

On the bus our way to Assisi the Italian teachers shared several links for different quizzes (on the events of the day) with all participants. The quizzes were prepared by the Italian students. All participating students solved them while on  bus using their smartphones. It was a very good idea - students had fun and learned some facts.

Today should have been a less demanding day, but it wasn't. Judge for yourself. In the morning, after breakfast, we walked to the other part of our partner school. We were greeted by students who also gave us a tour of the school. We then walked to the Burri Museum, a giant-sized gallery focusing on the work of Alberto Burri, a native of Città di Castello. After visiting this modern art gallery, we boarded the bus and made our way to the medieval water mill. Here we saw the water-powered millstones crushing grain into fine flour. Since the mill has been run by the same family for several centuries and the craft has been passed down from generation to generation with all the trimmings...including love and respect for the craft, the young miller's explanation was very engaging. From time to time supplemented by comments from his grandfather, who helped to operate the flour hopper. Now that we knew how things worked in the mill, we made dough from the milled flour and tried to process it into small loaves of bread. After this work we were rewarded with delicious homemade bread with homemade olive oil, small toasts and a whole wheat cake with homemade jam. All made with centuries-old, time-honoured indigenous techniques and all in the best organic quality imaginable. Then we moved on to Cittá di Castello to the canoe club. Despite the great fatigue, our team did not be embarrassed and sent the crew on the dragon boat. It would seem that this was the end of the day. Not so - we quickly changed at the hotel and moved on to the concert at a very brisk pace. We listened to some nicely crafted Beatles songs performed by the Colleginum Tiberinum String Orchestra. Dinner followed with our Italian partners in the garden of a small pizzeria. We returned to the hotel with a walk through the city. Tired, we went to a sweet sleep, this point of the program was also successful.

Today we started a little earlier, because we had an even busier schedule than the previous day, which seemed impossible, but it turned out to be true. After about an hour bus ride we arrived in Assisi, a famous pilgrimage site visited by about six million people a year. Here we visited the Basilica of St. Francis, the Basilica of St. Clare and the Basilica of St. Mary of the Angels called Porcinculi. We were all impressed by the beauty and spirit of the place. The buildings were monumental and everything was accompanied by the words of an excellent guide, of course in English. After lunch we moved on to the town of Perugia (160,000 inhabitants, capital of the Umbria region), just a few kilometres away. There we saw some very important constructions related to WATER and its irreplaceable position in human life. We saw  an original 40 meter deep Etruscan Well from the third century BC, walked along a former aqueduct and also could admire a beautiful Fontana Maggiore. Walking down the aqueduct we also saw the renowned university. Since both Assisi and Perugia are cities spread out over hilly terrain, we were glad to get on our bus, really tired by late afternoon, and head back to Città di Castello. Over dinner we discussed the day's experiences and happily retired to our rooms for the night. Looking forward to tomorrow.

We started our journey by train at 7.01 a.m. from Tabor to Prague to Václav Havel Airport. Then we continued by air to Rome to Fiumicino airport. Here we were picked up by a bus, which circled around Rome a bit and picked up the Slovak and Greek teams on the way and headed towards Cittá di Castello. We arrived at our hotel at 21.00 approx. The journey was quite exhausting, but without complications. We ate something, learned a few Italian numerals while handing over the keys at the reception and went to sleep.

The canoeing event where all participating schools shared one boat was very symbolic. We all are on the board of one world using "THE SAME WATER" which we share and which we have to protect and the only way to do it is to learn to communicate better - as we did on the dragon boat - to learn to cooperate better - as we did on the board of the dragon boat - and to make our best efforts to reach the goal - as we did on the boat. And of course on the way to reach the goal it is important to have fun - as we did.

Today we were again assured that this day would be less demanding than the previous days, which made us a bit nervous. Every time there was talk that something would be less challenging, the opposite came true. And indeed our fears proved to be justified. We were greeted at the bus by the guide who had accompanied us on Tuesday in Assisi and Perugia. The first stop on our itinerary was Frantoio di Spolleto uccd societá cooperativa agricola, a local small business producing an exclusive olive oil prized for its unique taste and quality. The tour was quite brisk and ended with an olive oil tasting and a group photo.
Next stop, the town of Spoletto. An amazing town full of beautiful historic buildings and the site of a famous cultural festival. This year the Festival dei Due Mondi will take place at the end of June and the beginning of July. Some of the musical and theatrical performances take place in the open space in front of the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta, which we visited. The steps leading up to the cathedral serve as the amphitheater's auditorium. We managed a short stop for ice cream on the way to the bus and were already speeding on again to Cascata delle Marmore, the highest man-made waterfalls in Europe, and the world.  Their height reaches 165m. Thanks to them, the whole area has a specific microclimate. There are many unique plant and animal species. From the guide we heard the history of the waterfalls from the antiquity to the beginning of the 20th century. There are several trails around the falls that lead to the best views. We also took one of these trails and waited for the opening of the sluice gates, which takes place twice a day so you can see the falls at their maximum strength, which is a really nice sight. We did take a bit of a shower there, but we dried off quickly again in the warm weather. We will remember this experience for a long time. It was time to start heading back to the hotel. On the way, we still visited a place called Fonti Clitunno the area of the headwaters of the Clitunno River, which has inspired the work of many great artists. During the time of Emperor Caligula, this place was used to worship the deities of the waters and there was also an oracle. Very tired, we had dinner and went to bed.
