LONDON!LONDON!LONDON!

the class at an Italian resaurant
Well, London was so much fun!
I left the 29th of September in the morning with my class. After a 5 hour train ride, 1 1/2 hour flight, and another hour of trains, we finally made it to our hotel. When we got to our hotel is was about ten at night and everyone was starving, so we ended up going to McDonalds, which wouldnt be the last time for that trip. In the hotel i ended up staying with my best friend Nina and another friend Cecile, our room consisted of only two double size beds and well, thats it.
The next day we had to wake up and meet the teachers in the lobby to start our sight seeing. For four days we did the same thing, wake up by 7:30 eat nasty hotel breakfast, and then go walking for 6 hours. Throughout the whole trip, we saw everything that you could possibly see. I believe that if i listed EVERYTHING then you would get bored reading this, but i will put all the pictures up of where we went. My favorite historical place to visit was the london bridge and Buckingham Palace. I was dissapointed becauses we could

not walk up to the gaurds at Buckingham palace because all of the gates were shut due to the queen actually being at home=(
It was nice hearing and seeing english everywhere i went for a week. However, more than half of the english people i talked to, i couldnt understand because they had such a intense british accent!
One of the last days just two other girls and i went with the teachers to see Shakespeare's globe theater, while everyone else went shopping. It was a very cool place to see! I highly reccomend that if you are a fan of Shakespeare and ever go to London, that you need to go there! Right after that just the few of us went to the Tate museum. I still can't figure out what kind of museum it was! There was a lot of paintings, but then there was a bunch of other things, and i have NO idea what it was. =/ Later in that evening, the teacher left us three girls and we went to an attraction called the London Bridge ecperience. It was a haunted house kind of thing, but you learned A LOT of history about the

London Bridge and how it killed many people, but it was so much fun. There was only us three girls and we were screaming the whole time, but i still enjoyed it. The next night about 10 of us girls went to another attraction called he London Dungeon. It was kind of the same as the other one but we learned and got to experience the history of the plauge, Jack the Ripper, "Sweeny Todd", and many other things that killed off people in London. Little did we know, at the end of the experience we ended up being led to a ride where it dropped us from very high, and very fast!
Those two nights were probably the best out of the week. The last night there we there all of the class hung out in a hotel room and talked until about 4 in the morning, even though we had to wake up early the next morning. The last day we still went sight seeing and had to catch our flight later that night. We left London friday night and returned back to Struer Saturday at five in the morning. It was a very nice trip and i
