Today we woke up at 6 o'clock to take a train to London. In the train we called our families and we had breakfast (sandwich with Nutella, napolitana and juice). We also played table games.
When we arrived to London we visited Covent Garden, it was amazing!! There were a lot of shops and restaurants. The father Jesus explained us the history of each monument; for example, he told us that Covent Garden had been a jumble sale, the people went there to sell their raw materials, vegetables or farm butchers.
After the Covent Garden we went to the British Museum. There we watched Egypt samples like mummies or their ancient scripture.
Then, we took the underground to go to the Tower of London and we had lunch. We ate the wraps and the rice we prepared yesterday and an apple. Before, the Tower of London was a prison, but now is just an old monument. Inside the tower there are crowns without wings, so they won't be able to scape. The legend says that if the crowns disappear, all the population will die.
When we finished our lunch we went to the Tower Bridge. We crossed the river Thames and we saw a lot of boats.
To continue our visit we saw the Big Ben and the Parlament of London. After that, we walked to Picadilly Circus. There we saw a big festival and we could entered to a big M&Ms store. The leaders gave us time to visit the store.
Then, we went to a big shop were we could buy souvenirs and to a 7-floor toy-store called Hamleys. When we finished buying, we returned to the main London train station by underground. Then, we took a train to Birmingham.
When we arrived we went to our University to have dinner (salad, lamb with vegetables and fruit or ice-cream) . After dinner we came back to the accommodation and we took a shower, we put our pyjamas and watch a serie.
It was a fantastic day!!! But now we are all so tired! Good night
Lucia and David
