Tour of London

The EIL 2019 program got off to a great start today with fantastic weather and the traditional tour of the City of London. By bus (with a few stops) students were given a good orientation of the City with chances to take photos near St. Paul's Cathedral, The Globe Theatre, Borough Market, and the Millennium Bridge over the Thames River.  Brian Harlock , our tour guide, gave the students a superb history lesson on London from the Middle Ages up to the present.  He also escorted the group to The Mall for a view of the Trouping the Colours practice.  This is the formal celebration of the Queen's Birthday that will be celebrated on Saturday, June 8 this year.  After the tour, the students were treated for a sandwich and crisps lunch at IES prior to their safety and housing orientation meeting.
