London

Time has gone by, London has gone. The last year of our ESO stage has started. A new year of “huge feelings”, as we’ve said in some subjects. But we'll never forget that excursion... Did you know that London has the summary of our trip hidden in its initials?


London 2013: the best trip EVER!
Most of you will agree with me: that trip to London  that we made in June, is the best we’ve ever made, and surely, the one that I’ll remember with more affection and love. I never imagined that this trip was going to be so special for me, and I don’t say this to “decorate” my post, believe me, I feel all that I’m going to write in this entry.


Oh my God, we UNDERSTAND English people!
I wanted to start with this title of the summary of the first day, because (apart from the arrival to the UK), was the thing that more impacted me. I remember myself speaking English with the policewoman. She asked me: What's your name?. You speak English very well... And I was like: Oh no, dear, you'll make me turn red... hahahahahaha.

Malaga's airport: the beginning of the beginning,
I also remember us in Covent Garden with the magician, shouting to nobody; "JUMP, JUMP, JUMP, JUMP!"
Then, the walk through Leicester Square and China Town was simply amazing.


National gallery: "The Scream", wanted.
That was the second day. Trafalgar Square. National gallery.
I perfectly remember when we were like crazy students in the museum searching "nothing". When we asked to the girl in the museum and she said that The Scream was in the Netherlands... well, better we'll countinue with the next day... hahaha.

Diamonds, gold, and silver: the Tower of London and the Crown Jewels.
Third day. We walked to St. Paul's Cathedral. From there, we walked to the Shakeaspeare Globe through the Millenium Bridge. And then, I remember us walking fast, because we saw the Tower Bridge opened. (In summary: we walked). I also remember when I was giving food to pigeons with Alvaro Muñoz, Miguel and Inma.
And then, we arrived to my favourite monument of the city: the tower of London. What I like of this monument the most are beefeaters, but I also love ravens, the Crown Jewels... In my opinion, it's a very special place.

Old queen, Elizabeth II: OPEN US, PLEASE!
Fourth day. Buckingham palace. Change of guards. I never imagined that Buckingham Palace was going to be that way. Appart from the big it's, the lot of people that were there to watch the event was so amazing... When I arrived and I heard the band and people leaving the street empty, I automatically thought in our Holy Week... hahahaha.

No. No, no, no. Today: homecoming!
The last day. The thing I remember from this day is Andrea. Andrea and Oxford Street... hahahahaha.
I also remember me in Malaga's airport as a silly guy looking for coverage. But I didn't find it until the next day...

That's my entry. The only thing I wanna say is thanks class, thanks Antonio and Alvaro (my roommates), thanks girls and thanks boys for this amazing trip. I love you all!

  5. Hello my dear class!!!

    Woooow Rafa, congratulations!! You will think that I'm overstating a lot but I promise you that when I have read all your entry, inmediately I have felt a shiver... This is because you have known how describe our five days in London in only a small post, in 7 paragraphs simply. You have described to us you feelings during the trip, in conclusion, you have know describe it with only the initials of LONDON. So, very good post :):)

    Well, I bought some souvenirs in London... I didn't buy many souvenirs for me because I have been in London three years ago and I have a lot of souvenirs hahaha. But I bought presents for my friends and three presents for my sister. One of them was a flask from the Primark shop to drink whatever she wants. Other thing were headphones with the British flash to listen music and finally, I bought her a type of wallet to keep inside it her DNI, passport and things like those...
    But I have the pleasure of say that: my best souvenir of London is the memory that I have shared this trip with my dear class, all of you! And all the moments that we have passed there, of course.

    Bye xxxxxxxxx

  6. Hi!! Your post has been fantastic, Rafa, especially the title of each day. But I don't remember me giving food to pigeons!! I think I have fish memory.
    So, I bought lots of souvenirs from London: a pack of small cars and a scar form a football team for my brother, mugs for my Montor's grandparents, for my mother and for my father, an umbrela for my mother, a mouse pad for my father, a very beautiful writing pen for my Cordoba's grandparents, a sweatshirt and a bag for me, ... and if I didn't buy more presents, it was because I didn't have enough space for all of them! I remember London with all my love, because it was an amazing experience.
    Bye!
