St Paul's, FAO Schwartz and Planet Hollywood

On Wednesday we woke up quite late - we were woken up by Mr Stein! We went to breakfast at Bloom's at 8.15. We had toast and fruit and orange juice. Then we went back to the hotel and got changed into our school uniform. Before we left, we sang a carol to the hotel manager.

Then we went to Grand Central Station subway and to St Paul's Chapel. It was near where the Twin Towers used to be. We went for a walk around the churchyard and we saw a bell that London sent in 2002 to remember 9/11. Then we had a practice in the chapel. We then had lunch in McDonalds. We went back to the chapel and we sang at the concert. James P played a piece on the piano before and after our concert.

We came back to the hotel, got changed again and went to FAO Schwartz which is a giant toy shop. There were loads of stuffed animals. Louis and Oliver bought remote controlled helicopters. Ife and Louis bought a plane you throw in the air.

We went back to the hotel to relax and then went to Planet Hollywood. It was cool. It had the Star Wars Death Star which was used in the film. There were hands you pressed and you heard the voice of the person like Will Smith, Indiana Jones and Luke Skywalker. They had a motorbike that was used on Jurassic Park. We ate our meal and Oliver accidentally went into the Ladies' toilets... Then we walked back to the hotel.

Hi,
My school was on a trip to New York at the same time, and we visited St. Paul's church when the choir was rehearsing. I just wanted to say that they were wonderful and had such great voices.
