GOOD EVENING PARENTS,

TODAY WE WENT TO GREENWICH. WE SAW A LOT OF DIFFERENT MUSEUMS, IN WHICH WE SAW THE MEDIRIAN LINE. IN THE CONSERVATORY WE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO TOUCH THE OLDEST ROCK IN THE WORLD, A 4,5 BILLION YEAR OLD STONE! THEN WE WENT TO A PARK TO EAT OUR LUNCHES, WE WERE LITERALLY STARVING. AN IMPORTANT THING TO NOTE IS THAT WE WENT TO GREENWICH BY BOAT. IT WAS REALLY INTERESTING, WE SAW LONDON BRIDGE WITH THE SLOGAN OF THE OLYMPIC GAMES. TOMORROW WE ARE GOING TO TAKE AN EXAM IN THE MORNING AND IN THE AFTERNOON WE ARE GOING TO PACK OUR LUGGAGE, SOME OF US MAY GO SHOPPING, HOWEVER, WE WILL SEE…

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR ATENTION AND SEE YOU ALL ON FRIDAY AFTERNOON.

Hi, im writing to let you know what the fellas and I did today in the afternoon. Early in the morning WE had mass in the house BEcause the priest was here and there was no need to go to a church; later we took our things and our lunch to be ready for the excursion. We took the train and went to the aquarium WHICH is near the Big Ben and THE London Eye; the aquarium was awesome. at the entrance there was like a glass on the floor and you had to walk over IT. under the glass THERE were the sharks and a lot of sea animals. it was VERY scary BEcause when you WALKED OVER it feLT like the glass WAS going to break or something. the rest of the aquarium was like a normal one. At night we watched the Eurocup match ENGLAND-ITALY and it was great too but at the end all the people that supported England wERE sad BEcause theY got KICKED out of the Eurocup. Well, we will see you soon, have fun and don’t miss us too much(:

HELLO PEOPLE, TODAY, AFTER THE DAILY THINGS LIKE MASS AND BREAKFAST WE WENT TO A PARK TO PLAY FOOTBAL AGAINST  THE NETHERHALL HOUSE RESIDENTS. THE FISRT HALF WAS DIFFICULT, BECAUSE WE MIXED BOTH TEAMS, BUT THE SECOND HALF WAS EASEIR BECAUSE WE PLAYED ECUADOR VS THE NETHERHALL HOUSE, LIKE THE FIRST TIME, AND WE ALSO WON 5-4, LIKE THE FIRST TIME. THAT WAS SUCH A TIRIMG GAME, AND ALSO IT WAS THE REVENGE FOR THE FIRST MATCH. SOMETHING STRANGE THAT HAPPENED IS THAT DURING BOTH MATCHES THERE WERE STILL ARRIVING PEOPLE FROM NEHTERHALL SO WE CAN SAY THAT NETHERHALL´S TEAM WAS ALWAYS GROWING

TODAY WE WENT TO THE IMPERIAL WAR MUSEUM AFTER CLASS. WE TOOK THE TUBE TO THE MUSEUM. WHEN WE ARRIVED WE SAW TWO MASSIVE CANNONS AT THE ENTRANCE. THEY WERE ABOUT 15 METERS LONG AND 1.80 METERS TALL AND THEY FIRED BULLETS THAT WERE HALF A METER IN DIAMETER. INSIDE THE ENTRANCE HALL THERE WAS A GREAT SHOW OF CANNONS AND TURRETS. THERE WAS ALSO A WIDE COLLECTION OF TANKS AND AIRPLANES THAT HUNG FROM THE CEILING. THERE WAS A VARIETY OF EXHIBITS FROM THE FIRST WORLD WAR UP TO THE GULF WAR. IT WAS ALL VERY INTERESTING AND EDUCATIONAL. YOU COULD SEE THE UNIFORMS AND WEAPONS THAT WERE USED THROUGHOUT THE DIFFERENT WARS. YOU COULD ALSO GO INTO A TRENCH THAT LOOKED REAL. WE ALSO SAW THE HISTORY OF THE CREATION OF THE INTELLIGENCE AND COUNTER-INTELLIGENCE SERVICES THROUGHOUT HISTORY. IT WAS A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE. AFTERWARDS WE WENT BACK TO THE HOUSE WERE WE HAD AN INTERESTING TALK ABOUT CHINA.
