Yesterday Sam took us out on a nice day in London. We met up with him after the morning assembly in London and headed for one of the buildings of University of London. We went to a lunch session about Storytelling and Theatre. It was nice, I thought, even though it was a lot of english words and terms from the academic world I couldn't understand, I succeded to get the point. I think.
After the session we had a race. Which team were going to get to Covent Garden, the piazza, first. Lea and Joe, that took the tube, or me and Sam that walked?! Think about it.
At the piazza we went looking for street performances. We studied them carefully and thought about why some people are just embarassing while some just are wonderful and you really don't want to walk away from them. What is it that makes a good performance good?! Why did I feel uncomfortable when nobody wanted to stop for that guy, which made me stay longer in pity and encouragement?! These were some of the thoughts that popped up while we're observing the performers.
The rest of the afternoon: We went looking for a play and couldn't find a cheap one so we gave that up. Instead we went to the National Portrait Gallery and met up with Sam's sister, their cousin and his friend. So...it was a little bit of a Sam's family reunion... haha.. but it's was nice! We went to nando's and ate some spicy portuguese food. Really nice!
Everybody went their way, and left were the three volunteers. We went to Nero, the coffeshop, had a coffe (at least me, the others had hot chocolate) and talked about the future. Now I'm really inspired to consider my opportunities.

And yeah! Me and Sam were the winning couple in the contest the tube vs. walking. Oh yeah!!!
