London 28th of September to the 2nd of October 7 So much preparation had been done, so many emails had been sent but now had the time finally come for our first meeting in our project: XPLICIT.
Sunday 28th of September First session was to be held in London, and our Danish group had an early start from home. We arrived in London, Stansted, Sunday morning at 7.30 am. First stop was at our hotel situated close to the British Museum in Holborn. Nearest tube station Russell Square. We had a quick stop at our hotel and then we went for a bit of sightseeing before meeting up with the Finnish and Swedish teams as well as the headmaster Mr. Dagastir of London Nautical school and Mr. Yuksel, the British coordinator from London Nautical School. We had a very fine first meeting in a very cozy Italian restaurant in the Waterloo area. It was a great start for all of us. An exquisite meal and it was really nice meeting our new friends and colleagues. Monday 29th of September The day was spent in the London Nautical School. We had a tour of the school by Mr. McGregor the deputy headmaster. We were invited into some classes as well. Everyone we met were very friendly and interested in our project. It was a great experience.
