Today was the second day with our new
teacher Miss Louise. We started the lessons with some vocabulary games and then
we read out loud a text about the English canals, about their history while we
were looking for some new words in the text. Therefore Miss Louise finished the
lessons showing us part of the brand new film called The Host which was very
interesting and easy to understand.
After the lessons had finished we had some time, nearly one hour which we spent having lunch and laying on the grass of a beautiful park beside the place where we study at.
When we got to the
sixth one I was very glad there were still twelve locks more waiting for me.
Eighteen locks altogether. So much locks along that took us more than an hour. We
were lucky to find several families in their boats going up or down these
locks. Some of us wanted to help them as they have to open and close the pipes
for the water and the doors to enter the lock. It takes its time.
At two o’clock
we went to the meeting point. Then we all went together to the railway station
where we took the train to Hatton. There we saw the Canal and the Locks. The
first one was surprising. The second was amazing and the third, awesome. The
forth was interesting but not as much as the fifth lock.

At the end of the path we had to stop and
had some water in a pub that was there because we were breathless. At last we
made the same way back home. We returned to Leamington by train and from there
we made each one our own way home.
