The 3rd day(9/7) -Day trip

On the 7th of September, the highlight of my day was visiting Cambridge.
Cambridge is a very historical and beautiful town.

Before the visit, I ate cereal with milk and drank green tea.
 My roommate ate toast and drank English tea.
They were so nice! I will eat toast for breakfast tomorrow.

After gathering at 10:00, we left home and headed towards Cambridge.
We spent almost all of our time today walking around Cambridge.

Our host mother suggested that we go to the Fitzwilliam Museum, so we decided to visit it.
However, it opened at 11:30, so before that, we went to the market and souvenir shops.
They were really interesting!

One of the souvenir shops seemed to have a wizard theme.
There were Harry Potter goods and more.

At 12:30, we began to look at the exhibits, which were collected and displayed from different cultures,
such as Egyptian, Roman, Italian, and religious art.
They were so exciting!

Taisei has good knowledge about these things, so I could enjoy it even more.

After that, we walked around some more.
What excited me the most was the apple tree where Newton discovered universal gravitation.
It was such an ordinary tree that I almost passed by it without noticing.
On the way back home, I realised it was Newton’s apple tree.
I can’t believe that tree made him think of universal gravitation!

At about 17:00, we arrived home and rested until dinner time.
We ate pizza for dinner and dipped it in salsa sauce and hot pepper sauce.
It was so delicious!

It was the last day we spent only with our host family.
But I can still spend time with them in the mornings and evenings after tomorrow.
I’ll enjoy every moment I can spend with them, and I’ll do my best in studying!

 
今日は1日の全てをホームステイ先で過ごす唯一の日でした。
朝はイギリスらしい朝食から始まりとても心地がよかったです。さらにホストファミリーは朝ごはんに様々な選択肢を与えて下さりホームステイの間は毎朝異なる刺激が得られそうです。
昼間にはケンブリッジ周辺を歩き回りフィッツウィリアム博物館を見たり、あたりの様々な美しい建物や文化を見ることが出来ました。ニュートンのりんごの木やケンブリッジの川下りがとても印象的で川下りは実際にはできませんでしたが人が乗っているのを見るだけでもとても趣を感じました。
家に帰ると夕食にピザを用意してくださり様々なソースやスパイスとともに食べました。
とてもリラックスした旅でこの状態が続けば良いのにとは思いますが、明日からの現地校の生徒との交流などにも励んでいこうと思います。
