I didn't have time to post anything for the past three days, so I'm going to do a super long post.
On the first day, the airplane ride was a rather miserable 8 hour long ride... at least for me. But I really can't complain too much since I have ridden a more longer ride to Taiwan.
Anyways arriving at London was terrific. It was nice and sunny. It was also very warm as well. The Wisely Garden was a very nice place to go to. I enjoyed looking at the plants and trees. I found many unique plants, one of them included bamboo. Who knew bamboo could grow in London!
Freeday was pretty cool as well. I didn't do much for my group spend mostly the entire day in front of Buckingham Palace waiting to see the "Changing of the Guards" program. I have to admit that I was slightly disapointed about it. It wasn't as special as I thought it would turn out to be. Instead of taking the Hop On Hop Off tour, we then decided to just walk around. There we went to a few places including Westminister Abbey and Big Ben.
Today at Brandlehow, the Year 3 students that I went and taught, surprised me a lot. They knew a lot about what we were teaching them. But I must say, that made our teaching go a lot faster and smoother. Overall I think this experience was very exciting as well as fun. I can't wait for tomorrow's school!
Last but not least, the Kew Gardens. I think the plants here were as magnificent as they were in the Wisely Garden. My favorite area was the Japanese Area. I saw a lot of cherry blossoms blooming and different types of trees growing that I have never seen before. As for the tours that we took, the information given too us was very interesting.
