The City today, visit and shopping in Birmingham.
En 12 minutos desde la estación de Hall Green, hemos llegado a la estación de Moor Street, una de las estaciones de tren que rodean el gran compejo comercial conocido como "Bull Ring". Todos hemos seguido a José Antonio hasta el ayuntamiento y la biblioteca municipal, aunque nuestro deseo era acabar la visita y volver a las tiendas para practicar "shopping". De nuevo la lluvia nos ha acompañado en algunos momentos, English weather ...
LONDON
On Saturday we went to London. We had to meet at Solihull Station at 8 o'clock and a coach drove us to London. We visited some of the most important sites of London like Big Ben, the Houses of Parliament, the Tower of London, London Bridge, London Eye, and my favourite landmark: Picadilly Cyrcus, where the coach left us so we could have some free time. Some of us went to Camden town, Harrod's, the British Museum. I went to Abercrombie&Fitch store and I took a photo with a model who worked there. I bought a jumper there. The boutique was very expensive so we couldn't buy as many clothes as we wanted, but it's a big and nice shop. Then we walked along Regent and Oxford Street. I love these streets because there is a lot of people and they are very busy streets and i like that. I like the shops too, so I think that's why London is my favourite city in the world. We walked towards Hyde Park, to Speakers' Corner, where we had to meet all the other students. There was parked the coach to return to Solihull. We had a very exciting and wonderful day.

Weekend
The weekend was really exciting, I'm sure that I will remember it. Saturday we went to London by coach, and it was my first time that I was there. After the long trip we arrived to London and visited the most important things like the Buckingham Palace, the Tower of London, Big Ben and The Houses of Parliament, London Eye... We saw a lot of interesting things and I took some photos. Later, some of us went to the British Museum and it wasn't too bad, but neither really enthusiastic. When we had lunch we went to buy some clothes and presents to our family and friends. When the day finished I was very tired, so when I came back to my house I went to sleep very quickly. After this long day, I slept very good to begin another unforgottable day. On Sunday, I went to Stratford horseraces with my family and it was very interesting. We had lunch there in a picnic and later we watched the football match between Spain and Holland, and I saw how Spain became the champion of the worldcup. Noemi Castiñeiro |
