London




Natalie: On the 2nd of February we went to London to look around some of the sites. We each had a list of what we were going to see. We arrived in London at about 10:30 and we got home at about 5:30. I liked ‘‘Cleopatra’s needle’’ and ‘‘Oxford Street’’. We saw some nice cars they were Pink Hummer, Stretch Limo, Rolls Royce, Ferrari, Maseratti, Bentley and an Aston Martin. We stopped at Hyde Park and went for a walk around the serpentine lake and ate some lunch there. We also saw Buckingham Palace and it looked very good. It wasn’t very busy throughout London only in Oxford Street it was really busy. We saw a lot of Double Decker buses and some open top buses. When we stopped at St. James Palace we walked up to the door and took a picture of the guard, the guard had a gun with a knife on the end of it. We saw two other guards on horses and there was a little crowd around them. As we kept on going we saw some police men armed with guns. We drove past Regents Park and just looked at it out of the car. When we left Hyde Park we saw some people feeding some squirrels, the squirrels were grey ones. There were about 5 or 6 squirrels round the tree. We drove across the London Bridge and took some pictures of the river Thames. I also liked the look of the London Eye and the Gherkin. The last thing we saw was Lords, Lords is the Cricket ground and at the start we went past the O2, the O2 is a Sports Stadium. I also really like the Piccadilly Circus. The Piccadilly Circus is a corner of a building covered in billboards.
