Coventry

Coventry

Yesterday we went to Coventry by train. We saw a lot of things, for example the ancient Cathedral and the new one, the new Cathedral is very big. It was very hot! My favourite part of the day was when we were in the church, the funniest moment of the day was when we were on the train. It was a very good day!!

Wonderful Weekend

Wonderful weekend

I think that this weekend has been the best of my stay in England.

On Saturday, we went to Alton Towers and it was really fantastic. In spite of the bad weather (sometimes it was raining an other times it was cloudy) we enjoyed it a lot because we could ride all the main attractions.

On Sunday we met in the town centre to have lunch (the whole group of friends together) and after eating, we went to play soccer. We formed two teams; one was made up from people who came from the north of Spain and the other represented the south of Spain. The north of Spain won.

In conclusion, I think that this weekend was wonderful and I hope that the next will be as funny.

Alton Towers

My weekend
 
My journey to Alton Towers was very funny, I liked the journey. In the morning, I woke up at 6.30 and I had a shower. At 8 I arrived at Solihull Station and we went to Alton Towers. When we arrived we went to the rides. During the day it was raining and the sun shined. My favourite ride is Air because it is very fast and it is the best ride. I think that the scariest ride is Oblivion because we saw the ground and we went underground. For lunch, I ate a sandwich and potatoes.
 
The funniest moment of the day was when we went on the first ride. It was boring when we were sat in the bus. I went on the rides with my friends.
 
Last year I went to Alton Towers and I enjoyed it . This year I went again and I would like to go again. I enjoyed the day. On Sunday I woke up at 11.30 and I had a shower, in the afternoon I went to Solihull centre with my friends.

My experience in Stratford

My experience in Stratford

Before this trip to Stratford I knew about it because Shakespeare was born there. I knew about it from my friends because they told me about it too. But after my trip I knew more things about Stratford.

We went by train and it took about fifty minutes. When we arrived, Jose Antonio, the leader, explained to us all about Stratford. Then I went with my friends to see Shakespeare's house but we didn't go in. After that, we went shopping and we bought a lot of things for our family. Finally we walked in the principal street for twenty minutes. It was an unforgettable experience.

STRATFORD UPON AVON

Trip to Stratford
 
Yesterday, we went to Stratford upon Avon after taking lessons and having lunch. We arrived at Stratford Station at 2:30 and we had nearly two hours in order to see the city.
 
At the beginning, we went to eat at Mc.Donalds, but finally we decided to go to Shakespeare's house. While we were walking, we could see typical houses, several shops and lots of tourists like us. I liked all these things and taking funny pictures with my friends as well. We didn't go inside Shakespeare's house, we chose another cheaper way like seing it from outside. Later we bought some presents fou our families like cups and T-shirts. But I think, that the souvenirs from there are more expensive than in other places. At the end, we wanted to go across the river, but we didn't have enough time, so we had to go to the station and come back after having a good time.

London

5 phrases about London

London is a city with many things to see and we did not have enough time in order to see everything in one day.

The bus that we went on took us to the main places and we could stop at the tower of London and at London Bridge, we visited it outside.

The bus sttoped and we sorted ourselves into groups, my friends and I decided to go to the British Museum.

We took the underground from Piccadilly Circus with the leader and once we arrived outside the museum, the leader left us alone to go inside with my friends.

In the museum we saw:
- The Roseta stone
- The antique Egypt
- Some of Mezopotamia
- The ancient Grecian and Roman
- And the Egypt's mumies
But these were only some of the things that we saw.

Football game

The best experience so far has been the football game that we played yesterday. We talked about it all day, we agreed on what time, and after going skating we bought a cheap ball for 3 pounds. We were a bit concerned about the weather, but finally we had a sunny day and we could play in perfect conditions. We divided the teams into north-Spain and south-Spain. I was in the south team with other Spanish friends like Pablo, Miguel, Manolo ... We played for around one hour and a half, and finished quite exhausted. We are trying to organise another match, with as many people as possible, because yesterday some friends couldn't come and didn't enjoy the time. When we finished the great match we all got a bus back home. Manolo and Raul, who live quiet near me, went back home with me. When I arrived I told everything about the match to my host family, and they were very happy. I have to say that the score was 10-11, the south team won!

TRIP TO OXFORD

 TRIP TO OXFORD
My favourite experience of this week was in Oxford.
We went to Oxford last Wednesday with all the group and we visited it in the afternoon.My friends and I went for a walk in Oxford's centre and we bought a lot of presents for our parents. I bought one jumper and some food there.
We also saw the best colleges of England in Oxford and the teacher explained that Harry Potter's film was filmed there.We entered some boutiques and we saw a lot of typical souvenirs and English flags as well.The weather was terrible, it was raining all the time and everybody has taken an umbrella.
I really enjoyed that city because the streets are made of stones and they seem rural. I liked it very much.
