Today we took a little longer to get up quietly and went to the Tower Bridge. By cons, we had to accommodate to the temperature typically British, which consists of rapid changes of sun and rain clouds.
Tower Bridge is the most famous bridge in London by its original architecture which consists of a lift bridge that crosses the Thames. After a short photo stop, we crossed the bridge to get to the castle on the other side where we attended a pageant. The exercise involved the training of troops armed with muskets and London arcs.
frugal After a short break, we went to the Swiss Tower, the 6th largest building in London. This building is located in the heart of business district and is also known as "The Gherkin" (The Gherkin) because of its shape. It is 180m high and has 41 floors. Its shape allows it to capture the wind and use it in its internal ventilation which reduces energy costs.
Then we split into two groups. The teachers left their side to visit the Cathedral of St. Paul, taste of fish and chips "and took the opportunity to take a tour of the famous London buses. Students headed to Camden to buy gifts and souvenirs.
