Day 2 - Tuesday, April 21st

Our first day to see London..

I was so excited! We had to wake at 6 o clock (man, that's early!) because we had to shower and were all girls.. We also had to brush our hair, put on some mascara and think about what we were going to wear that day. at 7 o clock we had our breakfast. We could choose between having cornflakes or toast (or both) with marmelade or chocolate. And when we finished eating we took our bags and at 07:45 Mrs. Murphey brought us with her car to Civic Centre Harrow, where we arrived at 08:00. Then we got into our bus an went to the centre of London were we drove arround and drove allong attractions for about 2 hours and then we stopped at The Tower of London. There we got some free time to hang arround and get us something to eat. Some of my classmates were going to look for a starbucks and Liël and I also wanted to go but we were a bit behind so we runned to reach them. They just crossed a road and Liël watched left, saw no cars and thought: I can cross as well, maybe if I run..) so she ran and I sreamed because I saw a car coming from right (ohhhh cars are driving on the left in England). BAM! the car hit Liël and the felt on the ground. But she stood up rightaway and only had a little wound on her hand. I was so shocked about this accident that I started to cry. I was even more shocked than Liël herself hahaha. I'm happy that nothing happend to her!
Ok. After this car accident we went on. We went on a boat cruise on the River Cruise allong some attractions, well known buildings and we saw some famous bridges. we stepped off at the Big Ben and then we walked to Buckingham Palace, where we got free time to do things for ourselves.
Then we walked to St. James Park and there we also got free time to chill on the grass ( about 2 hours).
hmm.. we really enjoyed the sun there! Then we went to Trafelgar Square, and again we got spare time. I went into the city to look for shops together with Willeke, Sanam and Liël and saw some nice shops. Then we collected at Trafelgar Square again and went by underground to Harrow on the Hill. And when we arrived at that station we had to walk to Civic Centre Harrow where our beloved host families waited for us.
