English too because they practiced the language every day. In the morning, they studied a little, they asked

the teacher to speak slowly and answered his questions. In the afternoon, they visited different places or

played sports. They often walked to the beach with their new friends and chatted. In the evening, they were

tired so they sometimes watched videos or played board games.

The best days were Saturday and Sunday because they travelled to London. The city is very big and they

visited monuments like Big Ben, The London Eye and Buckingham Palace. They wanted to see the Queen

but they didn’t see her, only her guards!

They liked everything in the city but their favourite thing was Madam Tussauds museum. There were lots

of realistic figures of famous people there.

After two weeks, they were sad to go back home. They cried a little when they waved goodbye to their

friends and promised to write or send emails when they arrived home.
