The Rose and Globe Theatre

Hi everyone,

 We had a fantastic day yesterday visiting the Globe and Rose Theatres. We arrived early and all of us got a chance to walk along the Millenium Bridge (a.k.a. the Harry Potter bridge). Then we met our glorious guide, Val, who took us around the area and explained all about the past history and how the street names reflect that. We visited The Rose first and we saws the ruins of the original stage underwater lit by red lights.

 Next came The Globe where we got to sit on the benches and listened about the history of The Globe. After the tour finished we went into the exhibition linked to The Globe and we walked around for an hour and some of us even participated in some showings. The exhibition contained props, costume, basic history of The Globe and lots of people.

 After we had lunch close to the London Eye and walked around a little section of walkway close to the river. Luckily for us, there was a book stall open and lots had a very good eye-balling of those books. Once lunch was over we continued on to the London Eye and had a very interesting look at London from above.

 We came back to the hostel for dinner and left for The Most Incredible Thing, which Mia and Chloe are writing about.

 That's all from me, missing everybody back home
