* Morning:

Departure from Canterbury: 6.45am

Arrival to London: 9.20am

A long walk from Victoria Station to the Tate Modern.

Camille had never been to London before, so we decided to show her some famous monuments such as the House of Parliament, Westminster Abbey, and Tower Bridge! She was very impressed, she was starry-eyed, and she had a big smile! ^^

We've met Catherine, one of Giorgos' friend from Switzerland who is doing her Erasmus year in Leicester (and I hope that I can go to Leicester now! HA! Thanks my dear fellow).

Giorgos kept on: "We are in London, guys!!!!!!"

Camille answered: "Ouiiiiiiiiiii!!!! ouahahaaaa! Trooop Bien, Trop Beau, Trop Bon!" (oui, c'est la règle des 3"B")

And the rest of the group: "Shut up Giorgoooooos! hahaha!"

Photo dédiée à Camille qui nous a tanné pour
avoir une photo avec la cabine téléphonique
TOURIIIISTE (euh.... pardooon =D )

Ensuite on a voulu faire une expérience...

À combien de personne peut-on rentré dans une cabine téléphonique?

        Réponse A: 2
        Réponse B: 4
        Réponse C: 6
        Réponse D: 4 et demi plus 1 dehors (enfin 2...)

Ouiii....Réponse D: 4+1+1 (Catherine qui prend la photo!)

(Beaucoup de fou rires)

Nous sommes ensuite arrivé à la Tate moderne (particularité: musée installé dans une usine désaffectée.) It's a museum of modern and contemporary art, contrary to the Tate Britain. At that time, the temporary exhibition is Gerhard Richter (a german painter, famous since 1980's) until the 8th January 2012. I didn't see it, because we didn't have the time, however I'll go back before January!
So, we discovered or rediscovered the permanent exhibitions (some paintings of Rothko, Manet...) named "Material Gestures"; "Poetry and Dream" or "States of Flux"... 

       

              

Ce sont des graines de tournes sol!
Oui comme celles qu'on trouve dans
les sachets et qu'on mange.

Sauf que...

Chaque graine est réalisée à la main:
elles sont en porcelaines! Amazing!

* Lunch Tiiiiiime!

It's a salmon sashimi and I watched
the other sushi on the "mat" yummy

My favourite time of the day! We were in London and we ate...... SUSHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS .

J'adooooore les Sushiiis.

[I don't think that it was the best sushi boat of London, but we had a wonderful moment and when we wanted something which was not on the "mat", we pulled the red button and someone ran! "hmmmm I would like this and this and that one and....that's it!"] 

But when we walked to Camden town, I felt as a California Roll.... I mean, you pushed me, I rolled! 

* Afternoon: Camden Town

 Just for all Doc Martens' Lovers. The impressive creation on the front of each building reflects the atmosphere of Camden Town. You can see punks, but if you take a picture of them, you have to pay so, "Be careful". 

It's a big market where you can find everything you want, you can try to haggle, and eat chinese food! "Taste it!" This is the visible part of Camden when you stop at Camden Town Station. If you go into the market (a big maze), you discover the ancient stables:

 I think that Camden Town is one of my favourite place in London!

* Conclusion:

All day long, it's been run, run, run
and such a lovely day!

See you soon, 

Love
