Bath - Day 7 (Saturday)

Our trip to London

     On Saturday morning we went to Bath Railway Station, we said goodbye to our host families and we caught the train to Paddington Station in London. There we caught the underground to go to our youth hostel near St.Paul's Cathedral. We left the luggage in the youth hostel and we went to have lunch to an English pub, called “Ye Olde London”.

Then we met our friend Pablo Capilla who lives in London and he gave us a tour around the city. We visited the British Museum, Trafalgar Square with the National Gallery, 10 Downing Street (where the Prime Minister lives), the Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament and Westminster Abbey. We went shopping too! Later we went back to the youth hostel to have dinner and walked around St. Paul’s Cathedral and the Millenium Bridge. We took hundreds of photos! London is fantastic!


      Afterwards we went to bed. We had to wake up at 6 in the morning to catch a train from the Black Friar’s Station to Gatwick Airport to take the flight back to Spain.

Bath - Day 2 (Monday)

Monday in Bath (by Rodrigo)


This is a description of our Monday in Bath.
On Monday, I got up at seven o'clock and I took a bus at half past seven and I arrived at school. My colleagues and me had a lecture with the head teacher, the secondary school students and with the people from the other countries. After that we saw the whole school and later we had two lectures more, they were about water. At half past twelve we went to the dining room and we had lunch. Later we got to the centre of Bath and went to the parlour room inside to the Guildhall of Bath where the Mayor welcomed us all and gave us a speech about Bath and when we ended we got to the Roman Bath's Museum and we visited and saw the sacred springs and saw some other Roman antiques. Then we ate in Wetherspoons and finally we walked to the sports centre to the swimming pool but no one of Spain swam and at half past six our families picked us up to go back to our homes.
It was a funny day and today I obtained a good experience for remember.
