Dia 29 / Day 29 - July 31/2012


Hoy salimos rumbo Londres, el bus salio a las 9:30am y llegamos a Londres a las 3:30pm.  El bus llega a Calais, el puerto entre Francia e Inglaterra, ahi montan los carros y buses en el tren de carga y 45 minutos mas tarde los bajan en Inglaterra.  Dentro del tunnel no se ve nada, oscuro y nada mas; pero el tren de carga es bien impresionante, muy grande y algunos vagones son de dos pisos para poder acomodar mas carros.

Llegamos al hotel que habiamos reservado pues no habiamos podido hablar con ninguno de nuestros amigos en Londres para quedarnos con ellos, asi que la primera noche estuvimos en un hotel en el centro de Londres, cerca a la estacion del tren Victoria. 

Por la noche nos vimos con Maria Luisa, una amiga de Marcela de Colombia que esta estudiando ingles en Londres, y fuimos a un bar a tomar cerveza y ver los Olimpicos!

Today we left for London, the bus left around 9:30am and arrived in London at 3:30pm.  The bus gets to Calais, the port between France and England, cars and buses are loaded into the train and 45 minutes later they are being unloaded in England.  There is not much to see inside the tunnel; however the train is quite impressive, it is huge and some wagons are two levels high to accommodate more cars.

We arrived at the hotel we had reserved because we had not talked to our friends to stay with them, so the first night we stayed in a hotel close to Victoria train station.

At night we met Maria Luisa, Marcela’s old friend from Colombia who is studying English in London, and we went to have a couple of beers and watch the Olympics!
