Day 18: Hyde Park

Wednesday, 21/August/2013

At 11o'clock I met Vincent (German, from EF school) at Starbucks at the Waterloo East Station. With the Bakerloo Line we went to Oxford Circus and visited the Liberty House. It's a pretty big (not as big as Selfridges for example but still enormous) mall offering brands like  McQueen, Westwood, Beckham, McCartney, Wang etc... and also decorative furniture, porcelain and much more. Inside you'll also find a flower shop .

Before school we went to eat something. Near our school is a little park that is next to a church and in front of the church are little booths that sell different food. For example Falafel (we tried a few for free :D) or Lamb Kebap. I later went to the Waterloo Station and ate an amazing Bagel with Bacon, Tomato and cream cheese! Recommendable!

At 14:20 my class started and at 15:55 I had iPad lesson which was really fun! We learned about Richard Branson the owner of the "Virgin" company. It's amazing which companies all belong to him. Click here if you're interested in the video we watched. I finished school at 18:50 and went to Knightsbridge together with Marina from Russia to meet Daria there. Stupidily we took the wrong exit at the station so we had to walk about 7 minutes to the other exit, haha! In the end we finally found each other and made our way to Hyde Park. On our way we passed Harrods, highlife hotels and luxury houses. I would not dislike living there. But inly if my family, relatives and friends will join me. :D

After about 10 minutes (and the realization we colud've meet at the station "Hyde Parks Corner") we reached the entrance of Hyde Park.

The park is giant! Plenty of joggers, bikers, roller skaters and promenader are scattered around in the park. People playing football or training in a kind of boot camp! There's much going on in the park.

Marina on the left and Daria on the right :D

After our long walk in Hyde Park we changed our direction and went to the Pizza Hut in Oxford Street. Yummo Pizza there! Although it's abit expensive.. ;)

I hope everyone sleeps well! Laila xoxo
