Hertogenbosch

Today it's been freezing. In the morning the temperature was 5 degrees below zero! (-5 C), but the highest temperature has been 0 C.

We had a school trip to Hertongenbosch. It's a beautiful medieval city where we had a guided city walk and we also went up to Sint John's tower. We visited the tower clock from the inside, the mechanism, the wood platforms, the sound of the clock and the views of the city.

We found it really interesting, freezing but interesting!

We also saw the statue of a famous Dutch artist called El Bosco, and the houses where he was born and, later, lived in.

The tower was a bit tiring, we had to climb more than 260 stairs!

The views from the tower were amazing!

Then we had some free time in the town central square for our lunch and visit the beautiful market and shopping area. Most of the students went somewhere warm to stay for a while and have their lunch.

We went back to school at 04:00, where our partners were waiting for us to go home.

But the temperature had not changed!

Sentence of the day: 'I don't feel my feet!'
