WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE'S TOWN

On the 20th of July, we attended our English lessons in the morning and in the afternoon, we visited Stratford-upon-Avon, the birthplace of William Shakespeare. It is set in the rural Warwickshire countryside, on the banks of the river Avon and it is one of the most important tourist destinations in the UK. We visited the house where Shakespeare was born many years ago, in 1564, in Henley Street. It is really big and it is preserved intact. We also visited the house where William Shakespeare lived when he came back to Stratford, after living in London during some years. After that, we went to the Holy Trinity church, where we could see his grave. We also saw The Swan theatre, which is being rebuilt. After all these visits, we had free time. At five, we met the group again and we caught the number 15 bus to come back to Leamington. We really enjoyed the journey because the bus driver drove the bus as if it was a rally car. You can see in the photo how we enjoyed! Once in Leamington, some of us went home and some others, practised a dance because they are going to dance on the next Friday's Get Together ceremony.
