First Weekend in London… and Madrid

We thank Mónica Bruck for the update and photos.

Saturday 8th:

Yesterday morning the rugby and volley boys had their first training session. They are getting ready for their first match which will be on Tuesday. After lunch most of the rugby boys went to the London Irish-Gloucester match and the rest went to the great Victoria and Albert Museum.

Sunday 9th:

Walking tour from London Eye to Tower Hill.

We left the hotel and took the tube to the London Eye. Some students decided to take the ride and others continued their walk. We all decided to meet at Tower Hill. We all enjoyed the stroll along the banks of the Thames and the little narrow streets beautifully decorated for Christmas. We had lunch on the way. We met at Tower Hill under the amazing Tower Bridge.

After lunch the group split into two. Some students went with their rugby coaches to the Natural History Museum and the other group went to the Imperial War Museum. There was a special exhibit of the Malvinas War and the students were able to see Argentine weapons that had been captured by the English.
