The tickets are booked for the train to London. We depart at 7:30 am from Torquay Station of Friday morning 29th January. It's an early start but it will give us an extra day in the capital if we arrive nice and early. You can also sleep on the train. A big bit of advice though - bring your own breakfast as the food on the train might be boring, cold and expensive! We change at Newton Abbot so watch for that, we are all sitting together so if you fall asleep you should be spotted!
The aim of the trip is to demonstrate how you can have a fun weekend away in London, how to travel and stay in the city safely. On the Friday after arrival we will head to Russel square and spend some time at the British Museum, some of you may wish to find the Fulbright ~(US Universities) office, I will show you where it is at. Friday night will be an optional West End show and the plan at the moment is Wicked - this is the story of the prequel to the Wizard of Oz. See me as soon as you can if interested in going to this show.
Saturday we will take the tube to the tower of London and after some time at Tower Bridge will walk along the embankment to the London eye. From here we can see Parliament and Big Ben, Westminster Abbey and then walk to Buckingham Palace. Bring comfortable shoes for walking!
Well done Paula for suggesting we do this trip, it should be great fun and one we will do every year.
