WEDNESDAY in LONDON

7:30 a.m the alarm clock is ringing "nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo f**k!!!"

My first thoughts on this day!!XD After just a very few hours of sleep I awake from Anne´s alarm clock!! But this is not a normal alarm clock!! It´s a woman´s choice whisppering in our ears : "It´s a half past seven!! You have to wake up!!" I can tell you I was really scared of that!! The other girls didn´t even recognized the woman or were very good at ignoring it! When I tried to get up my legs hurt and seemed to scream: "No! Please Lisa keep laying in this wonderful warm and comfortable bed!!" But I had to hurry up, because we were five girls and only one bathroom and every body wants to shower!! But somehow we managed it every day ^^

I think now its time to thank Patricia and her MAGIC CONCEALER XD (for the boys: its a pencil with make-up in it. So you can cover the dark circles around your eyes ^^)

Later we decided to go down and check out the breakfast!! We already heard a lot about it! but i think it was okay. You could choose between cornflakes and toast with butter and some jam with one strawberry in it ^^

With the help of some coffee I finally woke up!

At 9 o´clock the course met in the hotel lobby to start a new and exciting day.

First aim was the Globe Theatre near the Thamse. The guy who taught us about former time on theatres reminded me of a caretaker. So I was pretty surprised who funny and entertaining he was.^^

After the visit in the Globe we went to Tate Modern and saw some interesting and awesome piece of arts. After that we had FREETIME :-D!! And guess where girls (and rob and martin^^) use to go when they have freetime?? Shopping in Oxford Street!! In my opinion this area is one of the busiest places i´ve ever been. There were so many people, stores and impression, I was totally overwhelmed. A few hours later we met again with the rest of the group in front of the British museum, another impressive building in London. I would have love to see the mummies but unfortunately we didn´t had enough time :-(

So I had to say goodtime to the mummies and we went on to see a totally diffrent part from London: the East End.

When we arrived at Whitechapel Station I was pretty confused and it was hard to orient myself.

But finally we found one of the famoust street of London, the Bricklane. Here you could find many many influences from diffrent parts of the world. Moreover we saw the "hip East End" with all this clubs and fashion stores. But the best for rest! Now it was time for Jack the Ripper!!

Again we had to hurry up, because of our "date" with the guide^^. He directed us through the East End and showed us the important places of the "Jack the Ripper" story! I don´t know how the others felt but I was really shocked about the stories he told us. Some students return back to the hotel but some of us were brave enough to go on walking through the dark night^^

We caught the bus, which brought us directly to Tower Brigde and I really feel sorry for them who missed that beautiful building, especially at night! But then the feets hurt again and we decided to return to the hotel as well. After 15! hours walking I was soooooo happy laying on my bed and watch TV :-D
