A trip to England
It was Tuesday 8th of July 845 a.m. Weather was quite cold and it was raining, but it didn't matter.
We were in good mood and looking forward to get into our bus and go.
GO TO ENGLAND.
When we were approaching Dover on a ferry, it was morning, too. There was fog above the sea and we thought,
that we would see nothing. But after a few minutes Dover cliffs began to rise from the sea of grey and suddenly
we had to go back into bus, because our ferry was entering the port.
Wednesday, the day, when we came to England, was very busy. We saw Dover castle, Canterbury with its great
cathedral and Greenwich, the city of the zero meridian. It was about seven o'clock in the evening, when we arrived
in London and were divided to our host families. Finally, after more than thirty hours of travelling and sleeping on a bus,
we could take a shower and go to bed - that great thing, in which you can stretch your body…
The next three days were full of sights, fun with cars driving on the left and lots of interesting places and people.
Thursday we spent in London, visiting The Tower, Monument and St. Paul's cathedral, walking thousands of miles
and spending hundreds pounds on buying postcards, t-shirts, mugs and lots of other souvenirs.
Friday was dedicated to the sea - we visited Brighton and Hastings, two cities on the southern coast of England.
Visiting changing of the guards at Buckingham is the most interesting experience, which we have from Saturday's London, although places like Westminster and Trafalgar square were very nice, too.
It was really strange. We went to Buckingham just to see some guards, walking there and back, but it was
The Saturday - day, when the Queen celebrates her birthday. Crowds of people were awaiting her arrival,
willing to get somewhere close and making lots of photos. And we - handful of crazy Czechs - were among them.
It seems like a wonder, that no one, no mobile phone or wallet got lost and all of us came to our meeting point in time…
Our time in England was suddenly over. We got into the bus again and on Saturday evening we left London and England.
My last look belonged to night Dover. Four days in England were one of the best times in my life, but I hope that
I will return once.
