Hi, Dr. Green students!
After flying all night across the ocean, I arrived in London at 9:30 in the morning, which is just 2:30 in the morning in El Paso. You were still asleep when I landed! When I got here, I met my son Grant, who is 21 years old and was a Dr. Green student a long long time ago.
I did so much today! I went to Buckingham Palace (where the Queen works), the London Eye (click on the link from my earlier post to see it), and Big Ben! Did you know that "Big Ben? is not the name of the clock, but actually the name of the giant bell which rings out the time?
I also saw Westminster Abbey, a very famous church, St. James Palace and gardens, and the Thames river. Finally, I ended the day by having Fish & Chips. Phew, I'm exhausted!
I will write more tomorrow- I am going to the Tower of London tomorrow, where a lot of people have lost their heads! YIKES!
Cheers!
Miss Beverly
Yes, people did have their heads cut off with a giuottine. London is cool, right? Thanks for the info!

ReplyDeleteHey!
ReplyDeleteIt really looks like you are enjoying your trip, but after reading all of those wonderful entries I'm very curious. First of all I have bin on a trip all the way to Frankfurt, Germany and here is my first question:
1. What airlines did you take? I just lone taking British Airways.
2. How long was your flight? I think I know most what it was like, my flight was 22 hours with only 2 stops!!!
3. Were you afraid of the airplane? I wasn't because Ive bin going since I was old enough.
4. And last I would like to know about the weather.
Thanks!
P.S. I'm really truly sorry for asking so much questions.
