Crossing The Pond
Now I am going to tell you a story about going to London, that maybe is going to be exciting like getting a dog, or it is going to be so boring that you completely fall asleep like me at a Justin Beiber concert. I am going to tell you how I nearly died, well not exactly because then I would not be writing this story. What was the worst part of my trip and the best parts of trip? The best part of my trip was going to Winter Wonderland with one of my good friends Lucy. She used to be my partner in Tae Kwon Do. The only thing bad about going to the Wonderland was that the tokens were too much money, but other than that it was a lot of fun. I went to the Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace, which is beautiful and they wear great outfits – something mom explained as “pomp and circumstance.” I visited the Tower of London, which was created a thousand years ago. We went to Westminster Abbey, where kings and queens are buried as was Sir Isaac Newton. We saw two shows about the same magical place Oz, Wicked and The Wizard of Oz. I liked Wicked more. Now to the part where I could have died. You see, in London people drive on the other side of the street, so my instincts were very confused. I was crossing the street and I looked the wrong way and did not see the fast car coming. So when I was crossing, the car stopped about two inches away. Everyone screamed. I will be much more careful, and much more thankful of my life. I am still in London and decided to send in the story now.
