THIRD DAY AT BOWLING

     Today Friday 13^th all my family woke up earlier because of their work and so I did. I dressed up and had breakfast and went to the bus stop early.

     In class we practised a bit of singing, we finished our yesterday diary and had some conversation activities.

     We went to Royal Priors for lunch and shopping. I bought a blue belt and a wallet. Late along we went Bowling again. Now we enjoy it a lot. When we finished our games we met for some information and advises. And also we had some Spanish “Jamón” we appreciated a lot. Thank you Paula.

     Back to our families I got ready for tomorrow exciting day.

TRIP TO OXFORD

     Today is 12^th July. I woke up later than other days. Last night I received a call from my mother late evening and now I feel tired.

     I arrived in time for the lessons. We had some activities and were giving directions. It is not as easy as it seems.

     We were waiting for the train but it arrived 40 minutes delayed. So we hand lunch at the station… In Oxford noticed about many Colleges such as Oriel, Christ Church. Many of them were closed for visitors.

     Merton College was opened and welcomed all students, so we visited it. It is one of the eldest Colleges in Oxford. Its has four quads from different ages as it has grown. But the oldest quad in Oxford is here. We sat there and learnt about de University and the Colleges.

     We followed our visit in Oxford and we got to the Bodelain Library. There we saw a stage and chairs ready for Hamlet play performance. We could not go to stage.

     After our visit we went shopping t-shirts and some records for brothers, or cousins.

     When I arrived home I was very tired, and had a shower.

TRIP TO WARWICK

     I got up at 7:00. I couldn’t sleep very well because last night the cat came under my bed . After breakfast I went to meet Álvaro and we walked to the bus stop as usually do.

     When we arrived at school they were speaking about our dance and we all practised some steps. After the lessons we went to the shopping centre for our lunch. It rained during the morning and all was wet.

     We caught the bus and went to Warwick and we visited Warwick Castle. We walked the wall and from the towers we had lovely seeing of Warwick and around. We also met a group of students from BCU, and we made some new friends. Visiting the Castle we could see an archer showing how the battles were in the past, and a big trebuchet that was put in operation by five people. It was an interesting visit.

     When I was back home I watched a terrible film. After I went to bed and I remembered the things we did during the day.

NEW WEEK, SOME NEW THINGS

     From today I have to catch The bus everyday in the morning and in the afternoon. So I had to get up earlier than last week. I met Belen at the bus stop. Though for a moment we felt lost we got straight to Parish Church stop and from there to the school.

     In class we did some exercises about London and Warwick. We also made and exercise about Murillo the Spanish painter. At break time we could enter and see our blog.

     After lunch we walked in Leamington and did some shopping. We all met at the bus stop and went to 10 Pin Bowling. This time we enjoyed more than last week. We are learning how to play and we all scored better figures.

     Back to Leamington we had to wait for long time to the bus. In town Belen and me took our bus. We already know where to stop so we got home easily.

     I had dinner and I called my parents by skype. We the family I watched some tv programmes before I went to bed.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU

     Today I woke up at 7·30. After dressed me up and breakfast we went to Lawrence’s school and then to mine. I arrived early so I had to wait for the opening door. A man came and he opened the doors for us. Me and Nieves waited inside doing our scrapbook. But arriving Mrs Payne we started preparing a Card for Álvaro because today is his Birthday.

     In class we practiced how making telephone calls. So Álvaro phoned each one inviting us to his party. Beside this we learnt more new words.

     Today was not raining so we went to the park for our lunch. It was planned going to Rugby but as we won’t be able to visit Rugby School, we went to Warwick for sports. We had fun at Adventure Mini Golf. It was hard to start putting but we scored quite nice results. In fact I won with 49 in 18 holes. When we finished we went to a near park enjoying a lot in its play fields. In town we ate chips and chicken because we were very hungry.

     Everybody caught the bus going home. But Sue came to pick me up and we walked in the park until it was time to fetch Claudio and Lawrence. We went home and sat together. We had dinner and watched tv. I had a shower and now I’m doing this diary. I feel tired because today has been a very amazing day.

FAMILY'S DAY

     Today I got up at 9 o’clock. Sam (the mum of Nieves’ family) picked me up at 10 because we were going shopping in Birmingham. Nieves wanted to change the shoes she bought for smaller ones. I bought a present for my dad and another for my sister. I don’t know what to buy for my mum… :(

     After shopping we arrived in Leamington and went to Sam’s house for lunch. When I was back in my house I painted with Aaliyah, played pool with Lukell and we all played hide-and-seek.

TRIP TO LONDON

     Today I woke up earlier than other days because we go to London. After breakfast we collect Belén from her house and went to Newbold Terrace, our meeting point. As everybody were in time we went to the railway station to catch the train that in one hour and a half took us into London.

     In London we moved by underground. First we went to Convent Garden Market and The Royal Opera House. On foot we got to the British Museum. There we visited the rooms for Egypt and the Mummies, and the Rosetta Stone.     Then we went to The Tower of London and crossed The Tower Bridge. From this side of river Thames we caught a bus for Waterloo Station, and from there we crossed Westminster Bridge and we saw the Big Ben, the Houses of Parliament and Westminster Abbey.

     After our visit we went to Piccadilly Circus. We looked for some presents to buy there and along Regent Street, where Hamleys is, until Oxford Circus. In our way to the train station we visited 221B Baker Street, Sherlock Holmes House, where we took some photos of us disguised as the detective. At the station we met people from others groups in Birmingham.

     We all caught the train and back in Leamington I had dinner with my family. Finally I went to sleep because I was really tired.
