Our school trip to London

Jason and Violet are students at a secondary school in Cambridge. Their History teacher, Mr. Sully, organised a school trip to London, the capital of England.

Last Friday Jason and Violet arrived at Cambridge train station at seven o'clock and they waited for their school friends and teacher. They arrived on time to catch the train to London.

In London they first visited Buckingham Palace. There were lots of people in front of the Palace. The tourists wanted to see the Queen of England. Then they visited the Tower of London near the River Thames. After the visit to the Tower the students waited for the sightseeing bus.
