London Theatre Trip Day 3

All good things have to come to an end.

Such as the London Trip.

We didn't have much to do on the last day, it was really just a trip to the British Museum. Not that I'm saying that it wasn't cool, because it was. They had a whole exhibition devoted to Shakespeare, and in it, I leanred my interesting fact of the week: Europeans used to collect narwahl tusks because they believed them to be the horns of unicorns. Neat, right? I wouldn't mind having a narwahl tusk lying around sometimes, I've gotta tell you. It'd make a much more effective weapon than say, a baseball bat.

The architecture of the British Museum is pretty awesome. Once upon a time, I wanted to be an architect. I've since realised that sitting and drawing while also doing math is not what I'm cut out for, but I still like to look at architecture.

Look at that and tell me it isn't cool

Once we'd all finished in the museum, we had a couple of hours free in Oxford Cricus, so everyone got rid of the last of their British cash. For me, that meant getting a London 2012 shirt and Nike Pro Combat shorts. Sports nut, remember? My payback was that I had to be dragged through Topshop for about 45 minutes. Not my favourite, but I dealt.

Then of course, it was back on the tube, back on the Gatwick Express, back on EasyJet to go home.

And goodness me did we all need the sleep.

Huge thank yous to the four teachers who made the trip what it was (AWESOME), and to all the students who went along and made it all the more worthwhile.

NOTE: No pictures in this post are mine. They would be mine, but I have ah, misplaced my camera (more about that later in a request I got today for a post about the recent Wengen trip). Credit goes to the lovely and talented individuals who took the photos (I'd credit them by name, but they're entitled to their privacy, unless I sourced them online, in which case, the source is credited).
