1. Make groups of three.
2. You will have to create a presentation of at least 20 slides
3. Start describing the most important places I the route you have chosen (you might add more if you please)
4. Your description must be clear and concise. This is not a copy and paste exercise, so you have to describe the place in your own words. Copy work will be punished.
