Freedom! London Day 3

This was a completely free day for the travelers. Some got up & out the door by 5:30 this morning to make an excursion to Wimbledon. They all got on to the grounds and some even got into the Men's doubles final match. Other events today - Kings Cross Station 9 & 3/4 for our Harry Potter fans, Tower of London, Tate Modern Museum, Phantom of the Opera or We Will Rock You, Portobello road, Covent Gardens, Oxford Street (the last 3 are shopping havens), and packing! We spent a lot of time discussing great memories of the trip, amazed that its over and trying to figure out the best way to survive as individuals again. I have been so pleased with how well all the kids in this group have gotten along. I truly believe they will stay great friends. It has been a pleasure to spend the last 3 weeks with such amazing young people. Now, I know you think this is all over but keep checking the blog. I think we may have a few more things to say!

  2. Dear Wendy and Katie,
    Thanks so much for the blog. Without it, I know of at least one family that would have been pretty much in the dark, as our favorite traveler sent a one paragraph email from Florence and a one line email from Paris!
    Thank you for making this such a great experience for all of these kids. What a memorable time they have had, a perfect "European
    Sampler."
