Our trip to England

So, now that we are back from England, I think it’s time to tell you all about it.
Sooo…

Monday:
Left the airport in Bergen (Bergen Lufthavn) in the evening. And arrived the airport in Gatwick. Then we sat on a bus the whole night to get to Scarborough. We were supposed to be there at 2 am, but because of different reasons we didn’t arrive Scarborough until 5-6 am. And then, we had to wait for someone to call our names, and we would go to the family we were going to stay with while we were there. As for us (Tonje, Hilde, Siren and I) we had to take a taxi. But it went well, and we went to bed to get an hour sleep or so before we had to get up and get to school.

Tuesday:
We got up and had some breakfast.
We arrived school just past 9 am, and we waited there for everyone to come. Of course some were a bit late, because we had a long night behind us, so everyone was very tired.
This day we were going for a “Town walk”. This meant that we were walking through the town. We also went to Scarborough Castle. The view was beautiful from up there. But my God is it far up!
That night we were going to “the movies”. This really meant that we were going up to the school to watch “Get Smart”.

Wednesday:
Wednesday we were going to York. Or, some had chosen to go to Manchester to see Old Trafford instead. I kind of wanted to go. But it would be 300 kr more to pay, and since we are going to Florida soon, I figured I’d go to York instead.
In York, we went to “The York Dungeon”. That was scary. But in a way that was funny, so it was more “fun-scary”. I’d definitely go there again sometime, anyone with me?
We also went to York Minster. This was not as fun as the dungeon. At all! We were there for like 30 minutes and then we could go shopping if we wanted.
I went shopping with Iselin and Åshild. Lol. That was kidna fun.
I also got to meet Laura and Jenny, they are amazing! I’m so glad I got to meet them. All though I didn’t talk to them for more than, what 1 hour maybe? I still think they are amazing!
That night we went to “Fantasy Forest”. Not the most fun place in the world, but it works, right?

Thursday:
This day we went to “Aidensfield” also known as Goathland. Such a shame we just got 1 single hour there. I don’t know if you have seen the TV show “Heartbeat”? Well, if you haven’t, where the hell have you been all these years. To me this is one of the most amazing TV shows ever made, and it’s a shame that they are gonna stop filming it. I love it. I think actually I used more money in “Aidensfield” than any other place we went to. And that includes York. There were not that many shops, but there was this little one with a lot of stuff to buy, like pens, CDs, toy cars and stuff like that. I do really want to go back there as well. I love “Aidensfield”!
After an hour in “Aidensfield” we went to Flamingo land.
Arlen, Elisabeth and I do all like to keep our feet on the ground so we went through the Zoo.
That doesn’t sound that much fun at all, but it was really.
That night, there was this Disco thing; we could go to if we wanted to. But we could also choose to walk around the town. As long as we were more than one person.



Friday:
This was kind of a sad day. Because this day we were going home. If I could, I’d stay there for another week! But of course not. We spent the whole day on a bus who was taking us to Gatwick. There was a lot of traffic today as well, so we had to run inside the airport to check in. And then run to the plane.
I know I’m going to miss the place. But on the other hand, it’s good to be home again.


Here are some pictures I took. Enjoy :)
