Last Weekend at Queenswood

Hey!
This was my last weekend at Queenswood so lets tell everyone what is the funniest of its weekends:
I enjoyed Sunday a lot, I missed the sports day (but my house won a pizza or something, so) but I played tennis,not a very good one I must say, and had a lot of free time, what was really great because we could do what we wanted to, also the weather helped, because although it was a little bit cold the sun shone for a few minutes!!! something very unusual here.
We also had the "Quiz" not a very, very funny one but at least was something different! Also I must say my house was the 6th over 8! we didn't do a great job but we enjoyed ourselves.

London Again!


Hey!

Yesterday we went also in another excursion to London, Thanks God it didn't rain!! At first we weren't sure if we finally were going in our trip because the bus was so late but at least it appeared, the bus journey was about an hour so there were people singing, sleeping, listening to music..

Our guide was a very nice man called Reg, who showed us the part of London we were supposed to see, we saw some churches, the place were the great fire happened...

We had our lunch and went into the Belfast a war ship that fighted in the korean war and in the second world war also, we stayed in the ship by two hours which was very boring because we finished seeing it in fifteen minutes and we went back into the school bus and arrived in Queenswood, in this journey almost averyone was sleeping or with music because the trip had been very tiring.

When we arrived we had free time till the dinner so I went with three friends and made some photos.

We had dinner and although I had football as an activitie I was so full I couldn't do any sports at all so I stayed watching tennis finally I had some hot chocolate and I went to sleep.

Weekend!!


Hey!!!

Last weekend we went Cambridge for shopping, it was such a cold day but at least it didn't rain what is almost a miracle!! I went shopping with two real professional shoppers and we hardly stopped to have lunch.

When we came back to the school we had the disco and although we were very tired everyone danced and I must say that the music was better at the end.

On Sunday we had a lot of free time and activities, which was great! I tried to run at the third activity, which was football and but at the end it was impossible, so tiring and just after dinner so we just watched the football players

Some people went to Thorpe Park I didn't because I've been there twice already so... but the ones who have gone did enjoy themselves.

Our trip to London

Yesterday we wnt on an excursion to London.
Well I hope that was London because we could hardly see anything in the rain.

When we arrived firstly we went into a building called The Barbican, I thought we were going to stay there but but a few minutes later we were walking again in the rain. We had a very nice tour-guide who tried to explain the part of the city we were which it seemed too be the " horror part" where everybody was killed like the animals in the Smithfield meat market, the places where all the fires heppened, visions, ghosts....

The teachers left us free time but some friends and I didn't realize it so when we realize it so when we realized we were by ourselves we felt very worried. Luckily at least everything was fine we went into the tower and saw a lot of the army, also Spanish armery. After visiting the tower we went to the coffee shop. I didn't buy anything but I waited for the others and finally we went to the bus and came back to the school.

The wearther was awful and that made the trip a little bit more ucomfortable because we had to carry an umbrella, a bag our lunch...and the weather also didn't help with the traffic. I took us almost three hours to return to school.

I must say that it would be a good experience to go to London but not so much with all the rain. I really haven't got any suggestions but if I had to organize a rainy trip we wouldn't walk that much.
