TRAVEL DIARY


A couple of weeks ago we did a school trip to London, it was the trip of the end of the school year. So, in this entry I want to explain our experience and what we did in those four days that we were there.


DAY 1-  4 April

The first day we meet at 2:30 a.m in the school. There we took the bus to Barcelona to catch the plane to Gatwick Airport. When we arrived, we took another bus to get to the city. Finally, we arrived at the Safestay Hostel at Elephannt and Caastle and left the luggage. At that momento, the adventure began and we saw many incredible places.

The rest of the day we did a guided tour

around the city, where we visit among other places Trafalgar square, Buckingham Palace, Saint James Park, Houses of Parliment and The Big Ben.

Even though it was a very tiring day, it was incredible to be able to see all those sites, because I had been dreaming of being able to see them for years.


DAY 2-  5 Abril

On the second day, after having rested, we got up at 8 o'clk to have breakfast at the hostel and then start a new adventure.

After breakfast, we went to the British Museum, where we saw thousands of spectacular relics. Once seen by free the whole museum, we went in the typical red buses until Camdem Town Market. We stayed there from 13:30 p.m. until 4:30 p.m. After all the amazing thing we were seeing, we took a boat from Camden town to the other side of town. When we got to the other side of the city, after dinner, we found another guide, but this time it wasn't to see monuments, but to hear the story of one of London's most famous and terrifying characters: Jack the ripper. After the tour, we returned to the hostel.

Although every day were incredible, in my opinion, the second day was the best because one of the things I liked the most was the Camden market, the boat and Jack the Ripper route, among other things.


DAY 3- 6 April.

Like the previous days, we got up at 8 and had breakfast at the hostel. Afterwards, we headed to the National Gallery in Trafalgar Square. This day was our day off, so after the visit to the museum, we could visit and go wherever we wanted. In my case, we met a friend who now lives there. After free time, we visited two more museums: National History Museum and Science Museum. Finally, we went to dinner together and went back to the hostel.


DAY 4- 7 April.

We get up and have breakfast at the same time, we visited some places, among them, those I liked the most were The monument, because we were able to climb it and they gave us a certificate as we had climbed all the stairs, Tower Bridge, because I had always seen it in photos and videos and I was excited to see it, and also, Brought Market, because I really like the food markets. Finally, we went to the guided tour of Shakespeare's Globe Theater.

After all this, we return to the hostel to pick up suitcases and take the road back. We arrived at the institute at 4 a.m. Then our trip was over.
