Today we did three hours of
lessons as every day, and then we had some lunch. After that, we went to
Coventry by bus to the Leisure Centre. Some of us didn’t want to go to the
swimming pool, so we went to the shopping centre in Coventry. The others went
to the pool and had a lot of fun. It was a relaxing afternoon.

TEN PIN BOWLING IN LEAMINGTON
Today, as every morning we had
first the English lessons, but in my own case I didn’t come because I was ill,
concretely, I had stomachache, so I had rest at bed and then in the afternoon I
went to the school with my host mother to pick up my sisters. The rest of group
went to the Bowling and had a lot of fun there.
ALTON TOWERS
Today, we
had the most amazing day at England. It’s the day we are all waiting for….
ALTON TOWERS!!! At first, a ll met at NB at half past seven in the morning,
then we went by bus to Birmingham, the Town Centre were the group of Birmingham
families and BCU were waiting for us. We were all a bit nervous because of the
Rides. We arrived there at ten o’clock, and then we did some groups with our
friends to go to the Rides. It rains a bit, but we had no problem to go on the
Rides, the one I like the most was the Nemesis.
At last, we
all met at the entrance at five o’clock and then we took the bus to our homes.
It was such a lovely day!!!

SWIMMING IN COVENTRY
Then, we had some lunch, and at
quarter past two we all met in Newbold Terrace because we had to take the Bus
to Coventry, instead the Leamington Leisure Centre, where the Swimming pool is,
are not open now because they are working on a better one. When we arrived to
Coventry, we saw Godiva’s sculpture, and then we went by walking to the
Swimming pool centre. It was great, because this pool has an enormous sledge.
At last we had some free time
which we spent at the Poundland.

VISITING OXFORD
On Thursday
we went to Oxford. We hop on the Train to Oxford after having lunch at half
one. Once there, we met Birmingham’s family group, and we started the visit to
the main Colleges and churches there.
At first, we went to Carfax Tower, which was
our meeting point, then we walked through High Street to see Saint Mary's
Church, which is so Beautiful.
Then we enter into the Merton College, and we
saw there the different parts of this College, as the Chapel, the Library, some
gardens etc.
At last, we
had some free time to go shopping to High street, which was full of Spanish
groups and Italian.
MINI GOLF at Saint Nicholas' Park
After the classes we had
until two o’clock some free time to have lunch and to buy several things, as
chocolates, cookies, biscuits and so on. We met at the Parish Church at 2, and
then we took the X17 bus to go to Warwick.
We got to St Nicholas' Park, in
which we played for an hour and a half mini golf. It was very fun, because some
of us were a bit bad playing mini golf. It's such as difficult!! Others, who didn’t
want to play golf, had fun at the little fun fair this Park has in front of the
Mini Golf.
At last, we hop on the X17 bus again to go to the
Town centre, and then we had more free time until 17:30, when we all took the
different buses to our houses.

railway station to Stratford.
When we arrived there, the first thing we did was

grave is.
«Give me my Romeo. And when I shall die,
Take him and cut him out in little stars,
And he will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night
