Benjamin Walker's Educational Tour in London

On March 21st, 2013, I left 3705 NW Columbia Ave with his dad and he drops me off at the Portland International Airport where Roscoe, Mr. Shelton, and his class are waiting. I, Roscoe and Mr. Shelton's class board the plane heading for San Francisco and another heading for London. They slept all night at the plane and arrived at England in the morning. I brought movies (Peter Pan, Wreck-It Ralph, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Rise of the Guardians, Mulan, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, and Brother Bear). They stayed at the Premier Inn Hotel right next to the mall called Westfield Stratford that has the Disney Store and the movie theater which I go and see Disney's Peter Pan and The Croods. We always use the Underground Subway to transport to London for the Educational Tour. We visited St. Paul's Catherdral, Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace, the British Museum, Westminster Abbey, the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben, Tower of London, Piccadilly Circus, and the London Eye. We went to many plays including The Lion King, Phantom of the Opera, and Spamelot. They went to other places in England including the birthplace of Shakespeare, Stonehenge, and Bath. I had trouble with loss of the pocket wallet with the bank card and the sold out of the Disney Fairies Activity Book and Coloring Book at the Disney Store. The English tour guide named Paul helps me and Roscoe find the Hamley's toy store and the Disney Store at Oxford Street. It has a bit of winter snow in London and the birthplace of Shakespeare. At March 29th, 2013, I and Roscoe (since Shelton and his class made it back to America) departed England and flew to Chicago and have dinner here and finally made it back to Portland tonight.
