ICE SKATING IN COVENTRY

On the 7th of July, we attended our English classes during the morning and after that, we went to the train station to catch a train from Leamington to the city of Coventry. We ate our packed lunches at the train first went to the ice skating rink and after falling down more than once, we visited some of its cathedrals and Lady Godiva's statue. Some of us also visited an art museum, where we were told of Lady Godiva's legend. At about 6 p.m., we came back to Leamington and we went home, where we had dinner and enjoyed ourselves with our new mums and dads. It was a beautiful journey!

OUR FIRST BUS TRAVEL EXPERIENCE IN LEAMINGTON

On the 6th of July, we all met at Saint Peter's church at nine o'clock. Some luckily students were driven here, but some others, had to catch a bus. First of all, we went to the place where we are going to attend classes. Father Jesus and Laura gave us the itinerary of our days here in England and some rules and instructions, too. After that, we did a test in order to check our level. It was quiet difficult, in fact! We also went to the Tourist Information Office to pick up some maps of Leamington and its nearest villages. Then, we walked around Leamington town centre just to be a little bit more orientated. At lunch time, we ate our packed lunches and we also had some free time to go shopping or to have a look around. At twenty-five to three, we met at Newbold Terrace and we all went to the bus stop at Parish church, because we caught the number 68 bus to go to the bowling centre. We enjoyed ourselves a lot there! Father Jesus plays very well and that's why we asked him several times how to throw the ball. Oh, I've forgotten two things: the first thing is that it has been raining during the day, but only a little, and the second one is that we went to the Travel Shop to buy our travel card to be able to travel by bus. After playing one hour, more or less, we came back to Leamington town centre where everyone caught their bus to go home. It was our second day in England and it was fantastic!

ARRIVING IN UK

The day finally came! We were at the airport at 9 o'clock in the morning. We saw off our parents and we took off from Spain by midday. We arrived in London airport on time, where a coach was waiting for us to take us to Leamington Spa. There, at Newbold Terrace (our meeting point during our stay) families were waiting for us. Once at home, our new English mums and dads showed our bedrooms and, after having dinner, we went to bed. We were so tired... it was a very long tiring day!
