London

...eine wunderschöne Woche in London und diesmal war auch das Wetter etwas besser :)

Wir verbrachten einige schöne Tag in der Großstadt und besuchten das Natural History Museum, Tower of London, Tower Bridge, Hyde Park, Harrods, Chinatown, etc. .... und machten dann sogar noch eine Stadtrundfahrt mit dem Bus und eine Schiffsfahrt auf der Themse. Es gibt einfach viel zuviel schöne Parks und Sehenswürdigkeiten in London.

LONDON

My trip to London

Last week I visited the capital of Great Britain and it was not only great being in such a wonderful city, but also meeting a friend from Austria. Here I would like to share some of my London adventures with you and I hope you enjoy it.

We arrived in London on Good Friday and the first thing we did was to check in at our hostel. The hostel was located near Russell Square and we had booked two beds in a 9 beds dorm. We stayed there the next few days and you would not believe it but I actually slept very well in my bed. As I was always very tired the nights flew by.

On our first day in London we decided to go on a sight seeing tour through the city. Romana and I visited the most famous places and we were very impressed by the wonderful old buildings like the Houses of Parliament, Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace and so on. We also managed to buy cheap tickets for the musical Chicago for that day. The show was really great. If you want to buy cheap tickets for musicals on the same day you can find the tks ticket shop on Leicester Square. We paid about 30 pounds but seeing an amazing show was worthwhile.

After an original English breakfast we started the next day with a market tour. First we visited the market in Covent Garden and then we took one of the red double-decker busses to Camden town, where my friend and I did a little bit of shopping. On Sunday we visited the British museum, which is quite a big museum where you can find historic objects from all around the world. The British museum and all the National museums in London are free, so if you have a day off just go to London and visit them. I had not enough time to see all museums and attractions in London but I definitely will go there again. A very funny thing was the visit to the Dungeons of London. On the one hand I was a little bit scared but on the other hand we couldn’t stop laughing about it. On Easter Monday we had a very relaxed day. First we bought different food from Harrods Food Hall which we then ate at Hyde Park. I enjoyed this picnic not only because of the delicious and sometimes very spicy food, but also because it was the first day in London when the sun was shining.

After my days in London I felt really tired but also very happy because it was a great time and we had a lot of fun. I’m looking forward to visiting London again and I have already made plans for my next stay there in May. Then I will go there with my boyfriend. Oh…I just realized that I forgot to tell you that we also went to China Town for a wonderful Chinese dinner … and we watched a 3D movie in the IMAX cinema. It was funny to see the latest family movie Aliens vs. Monsters there … and we also visited Tate Modern. That’s London’s modern art museum…and so much more…

You see it’s never boring in London, as there are so many places to go and things to see. I enjoyed it very much and I definitely recommend a city trip to London to all of you.
