Another day here in Cambridge started and the day looked as if is was going to be a great day. We are on the British island, which you usually associate with rain. But well, the sky was blue and no cloud so far. School we discussed economy. First we had to discuss labels, their image and slogan. QANTAS has as the slogan “Spirit of Australia” and has got the image of a very safe Airline. Later we had to discuss food. We read about whether or not British food is the best food in the world. Well, I think everyone can decide that for themselves, but my opinion is that it’s not true. Of course it’s not bad everywhere you eat but can you find better food in many other countries. By the way, the weather changed a bit. Clouds appeared but nevertheless it was still warmer than on the days before.

But let us return to the food. My device for today was: You can’t go to England without eating the well-known Fish and Chips at least once. I could connect it really well with the project work. Jonas and I have to present the Eagle Pub and so we were dealing with its menu. So it can be said that the food is really good there. However, I’m not sure if I’ll eat Fish and Chips again. It wasn’t bad but it’s something you must try but that you don’t necessarily have to eat it again.

Cambridge also has an Airport. It’s not like those you fly to as a tourist, but rather for smaller prop airliner and small jets. There for it’s clear that I was really surprised to see a plane which used to be operating on longhaul flights. It’s a Lockheed L-1011 Tristar for those who are interested.

In the evening I first had to find my friends. They didn’t want to wait, but we finally met a bit later.

The rest can be described very quickly: The waiter forgot my order, the cakes weren’t to everyone’s taste and we chatted about funny anecdotes. And the day ended with low temperatures, like those before.
