Our trip to Barnstaple 2014

Our language trip to England started on the 20th September and we were nearly 2 weeks away. On the way there we stopped in Brussels and Bruges in Belgium and we stayed one night in a hotel in France. In the morning we crossed the sea from Calais to Dover by ferry. Before we got to our „home“ town Barnstaple, we went to see Stonehenge. There we walked around the „magic“ stones and we took lots of photos. At 6pm we arrived in Barnstaple where we met our host families.The families were very good and we liked them very much. In the mornings we had English lessons in the North Devon School of English where we learned lots of things. In the afternoons we went on trips, for example to the Atlantic coast, Lynton and Lynmouth, Exeter, Exmoor Zoo, Tintagel, Westward Ho! On Sunday we had a family day with our English families. Our family took us everywhere where we or they wanted to go.

On the way home we stopped for 9 hours in London. We walked round the city, we saw Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, the Houses of Parliament, Buckingham Palace, Piccadilly Circus, Trafalgar Square, the Tower of London and the famous Tower Bridge. The stop in London was amazing! At night we crossed the English Channel again and on Friday the 3rd October we arrived back in Prague.

We really enjoyed the trip and I am sure that our English is better now!
