Today is Wednesday! I had wonderful plans that ended up not happening but still had a successful day. I planned on going to the palace where Churchill was born, but we couldn't really find the right bus and it was taking too long......so we went to Christ Church.
Now, I'm sure that this church has much more of a significance than what we wanted to see it for, but I don't really know what that is. Although, there is a staircase inside of the church that a scene from the first Harry Potter movie was filmed on. There are spots like that all over Oxford and London and this was a close one! However, Michelle Obama was in town and coming to the same church....who knew. The guards has it blocked off and wouldn't let anyone in for the inside tours. Bummer....thanks a lot Michelle.
Anyhow, we had a wonderful shopping/walking tour....again. I got a little sweater so that I could look more Parisian and wouldn't have to wear my wind-breaker everywhere anymore.
We walked passed this goergeous building and thought we would climb the tower to the top!...Beautiful view.
We then headed to the Park for class. Today's discussion was over Copyright. Also we had a 21st birthday of one of the girls today! We had a cookie cake and hats....probably got lots of stares, but fun all the same.
After packing, resting, tv watching, and being REALLY hungry we finally all got ready to go eat for our birthday party celebration! We ate at a wonderful little Italian place. Now I'm packing and getting ready to wake up early for tomorrow.
Agenda:
Walk to the train station.
Train to London.
Play time.
British Library
Chunnel to Paris (under water train)
Arrive in Paris for a weekend filled with sights, cheese, and baguettes!
After our free weekend we will be off to Germany for the rest of our class. I'm not positive there will be internet access in our Hotel in Paris so that I can update you guys...but I'm almost certain there will be. Hope so! I can't wait to see the sights!
