Wednesday, December 30 - UPDATED

Today was an extremely busy (and a bit rainy) day for the WVHS Band in London. The band split into three groups to tour several major London landmarks via bus (they prefer to be called 'coaches'). After lunch near the Tower of London, all groups boarded a large tour boat and we cruised down the Thames river until we arrived at Greenwich. We toured the Royal Observatory where students were able to stand in both the Eastern and Western Hemispheres simultaneously. We then walked down to the National Maritime Museum in order to spend some time wandering through the exhibits. Around 4:30 we hoped on our coaches and traveled back to the hotel. Everyone had the evening free to do as they wish.

Pictures are posted to the Picasa link I created yesterday, I'm also working on uploading two videos to youtube, I'll post the link when they go live.


Cheers


EDIT:

Here's the two videos I have added to youtube.

St. Paul's Cathedral

The Painted Room

Also, I just realized that I uploaded the pics to a new folder instead of the one I posted yesterday. While there is a way to move between the different galleries, the following link will allow you to navigate directly to the newest pictures.
