A SHORT EXCURSION TO OXFORD

Today we had our daily typical English breakfast, and then we had some lessons. During the break we didn't go to the place we usually go because it was raining, so we went to a gym located in the same building, and we could play football and get relax.

Later on,we have had the lunch and we went to Oxford, which is a very beautiful city. The visit was so fast, but we could enjoy a bit part of it. Oxford has one of the most important Universities of the world, the most important of England, at the same level as Cambridge. Once in the city, we saw some colleges and libraries, the theatre and the different campus of the University. We also walked next to Alice in Wonderland shop, whose writter was born in Oxford. Moreover, we went next to the library where Harry Potter's dinning room was filmed. We could guess the shape of the dinning room of the film, but we weren't able to enter. Once the visit has finished, the leaders gave us some free time. During it, most of the people bought a jumper or a shirt of Oxford, for themselves or as a present.

Half an our later, we went to took the coach to come back to BCU. When we arrived, we left in our bedrooms all we had bought and we went to have dinner. For having dinner, as for having lunch, we had pasta, but instead of spaguetti, for dinner we could have macaroni. Unfortunately, there wasn't enough pasta for everybody so some partners had to took other things.

Now we are going to see Romeo & Juliet, in order to prepare our activities.

Buenas noches a todos!
Enhorabuena a los monitores y profesores por el fantástico trabajo que están haciendo con vosotros. No hay nada más que ver en las fotos lo bien que lo estáis pasando y el buen ambiente que se respira. ¡Qué envidia! Me habría encantado poder pasar el día de Londres o el de Oxford con mi hijo Pablo. Ya lo haremos.
Un abrazo de mamá e Irene que ya están en Laredo y otro de María desde Reus.
Speak english and enjoy with your friends as much as possible! Take care my son.
