The Streets of London

This piece of work is my entertaining piece of travel writing.

 "We are going left next ladies and gentlemen so follow me!"
The silent groan that followed was almost laughable if my legs weren't in so much pain. Since we got off the shabby school coach, all we had done was walked and followed this petite tour guide around like a mother duck leading her ducklings to the nest. I could hardly hear her or see her for that matter as I was stuck at the back of the pack, trundling along, not really caring that was probably where Shakespeare stood and realizing I was on my last piece of gum. As you could probably guess, I was feeling bored. Her droning voice at the front did not help to make this tour any more interesting than it had sounded and even my history teacher said he only came for the burger and chips at our lunch stop. Planet Hollywood! It sounds so awesome but as the time on my phone keeps on reminding me, that isn't at least until another hour. A whole hour a feet killing, back aching, head exploding tour. It didn't help that it was a scorching hot day and that our bottle green uniform decided to soak in as much heat as possible for us! Personally, I actually do love coming to London but this tour wasn't helping to make it attractive.

Then, we turned a corner. It was a narrow and cobbled`street where houses towered over us, making the sun seem existent as the dark, murky atmosphere seemed to swallow up most of the light. Sighs of realife were heard as students stepped into the shade to cool off.
"No, no, no!" The tour guides voice broke into our heads, "If you stand there, you won't be able to see what I want to show you!"
Just our luck when we finally find a place to cool off, we are actually not allowed to go near it! The "relaxing stopper" then made us look up and basically squint due to the sun being in our eyes to look at the architecture. However, I did actually look compared to other students and it did make me stare. The unusual patterns and styles of the buildings was intriguing. This was the part of London that you rarely see being all the pictures of Big Ben and The London Eye. This was the part hidden by all the well known treasures of London but i think London has more treasures than it realizes. 

We then walked past a piece of Bansky art which did get me exited. His spray painting technique onto random walls was different and not tacky like most spray painting work. I found myself fascinated with it as we had actually just looked at him and his work in Art so to see a piece live was pretty cool.
"Come on."
The teachers had to call us few students, who actually appreciated the art, away like dogs. I did feel a little bit like a tourist to it as the camera on my phone did get whipped out and clicked constantly to make sure I did get a good picture. Because getting a good one would defiantly be worth it!
