Day 4

" Today we went to London to Shakespeare's Globe Theater.

After a short visit;

we had some drama practice with an actor. We weren't afraid of being ridiculous so it was really funny!

Then we had a walk not far from the Globe.We saw the Millenium Bridge and Saint Paul's cathedral

In the afternoon we watched Much Ado About Nothing. The play was in French so it wasn't very difficult to understand. We found this play rather amusing with brilliant actors, even if it was a bit too long!

Finally we drove through London. We stopped for a short time at Westminster Abbey, but we didn't appreciate it because we were too tired and the visit was too short.

Tomorrow is our last day in England!We're sad but we hope we'll enjoy our last day in Brighton!" Murielle G + Marie-Claude

DAY 3

" This morning we went back to have some lessons ; we learnt about the origin of the English language and we were told that it was mixed : celtic +{anglo-saxon/Norse/Latin}= old English + French = modern English. Then we had some playful activities in a drama class.

After a quick lunch, we took the bus to go to Portsmouth! There, divided into three groups, we discovered a battleship called HMS Victory which is famous for its role during the balle of Trafalgar and because of Admiral Nelson. It is a very old and huge boat, yet inside, ceilings are low and tall people must have spent their time bending down.

We continued our day trip with the visit of the Dday museum. We saw a documentary on WWII and we observed a "fake bayeux tapestry", we also had to answer a quiz!

Then we were told that we were going to another museum about the British symbols and we finally discovered that it was an amazing joke from our too dear teachers...in fact they took us bowling!
