Trip to London with Eve
Eve one of the Winchester students who studied at Seinan-jo this year met us at 10:00 a.m. on Sunday morning at Winchester University. On the train we met Uichi a seventeen year old high school boy whose father is Italian and who’s mother is Japanese. We had a good time talking with him and teaching him some Japanese. When we arrived at London Waterloo station we were lost and lucky to have Eve with us to show us the way to the underground or subway. We arrived at Piccadilly Circus and made our way to Fortnum and Mason the oldest and most famous tea store in England. We were so very happy to get the very last reservation for afternoon tea as they were fully booked! Our waiter told us that the Queen does her shopping here and that Prince Charles can sometimes be seen having tea! We had a very beautiful and delicious meal while listening to live classical music. Our waiter was an Egyptian by the name of Ehab. We had the Darjeeling tea that Ms. Nishioka recommended to us. Finally we finished our shopping at Harrods the most famous Department store in England. We had a really good time and it was fun to see and talk to Eve again. But tomorrow it is back to classes. Then next week-end we are off to Paris!
