London Field Trip && Cadbury World

Hello Everyone! Sorry this post is a little late, but stupid blogger hasn't been letting me upload pictures! GgggrrrRR!

On Friday [[nov. 2]] we went to London for a British studies field trip. We went to the National Gallery and looked at pictures. We had three hours there, and I had already been there, so me and a couple other people skipped out and went to tour London. We went to Westminster Abbey and it was gorgeous! Marie, Derek, and I decided to go inside and participate in Holy Communion. It was sooo cool! It was a lot like Catholic, even though the Church of England is Anglican. It was still amazingly cool though.. how many people can say that they had communion in Westminster Abbey!? You're not supposed to take pictures while you're in there, but I did. OOopps! Lol. After that we went to St. Paul's Cathedral. Oh my gosh!! Most gorgeous Cathedral EVER!! It was sooo pretty. It's the Cathedral for the people of England, because the people who are buried there are just normal common people who have done great things. Unlike in Westminster which is the Cathedral for the royals. All-in-all it was an ok field trip, and I saw everything that was required for it. :)

On Saturday, [nov. 3] I went to Cadbury World. Oh my goodness!! That is the place to go if you LOVE Chocolate. It was soo cool. We learned the story of the Cadbury brothers and the history of the Cadbury chocolate. We got to see then packaging it and there was a little ride into "Bean World." And we got tons of free chocolate! Then we went to Birmingham for shopping. It's the second biggest city besides London, and the shopping centre is 25 soccer pitches long. Sssooo many shops! Lol.

Miss you all!
Love,
Tiffany

Tiffany, taking communion in a "royal church" is not something that to many "Americans" can say that they have done. Not even pastors let alone common people.
You are very Special to have been given the opportunity to do this. What a Blessing you will never forget.

Looks like fun. I can't wait to taste this wonderful chocolate that you are bring home. Hope you got some neat pic's to share.
