It's a wonderful city, we've visited some fantastic things and the weather and people are very nice. Yesterday we went in the London Eye what was very fun and the views were wonderful because of the sunny weather. There were *very* many peolpe who must wait very long time, but we didn't wait because we bought the tickets before so we collected them (about 5 minutes!!!) Until now we've visited the National Gallery as well where there's an exhibition Manet to Picasso with many beautiful pictures by those and also Monet, van Gogh etc... we had tea and cakes in the tearoom of the gallery The Trafalgar square is very nice. André: i saw South Africa House there!!
On another day we went to a town next teh rievr and with some people we went to a café and walked on the path. You can travel on a boat there also.We've visited a pub as well
I will travel back on 10th april. The 13th is the day when the people in my class will travel back from the exchange they're making but i didn't make this exchange because I'm travel wiht ym parents. So it's why I thought 12th or 13th.
I spend three days there - my girlfriend being an anglophile I felt obliged to re-see London, 15 years after the last time I've been there !
The last time I was a kid, I was glad to see it with adult eyes.
this city is incredible, a shock after 3 hours of train only (it was my first time in the tunnel under the channel!). It is so different from Paris, it remind me so much the fellings I had in the US and in Canada in terms of architecture, colors, smells, food, people, urban organisation and of course Language. although I must say I'm not used to the British accent, and I had quite difficulties due to that.
I had time to visit (quikly) the BM, tate modern, and national gallery - very intereting museums. the temperature was unfortunally a bit cool, but I didn't care much.
I actually think you should've gone to Edinburgh instead. But I'm a 'caledonophile', so I'm biased.

Interesting. Actually, I've noticed that you use mainly American spellings instead of British ones, which is why I assume that you've learnt American English.

I love the Tate Modern — did you see the painting there that's just a plain blue canvas?
