DG London Trip 2011!
DG London Trip 2011!
Our second DG trip to London took place in November as 7 intrepid travellers and 2 coaches spent a weekend of tennis, sightseeing and general fun in and around the Capital. On arriving in London, we headed straight for the All England Club and for a tour of the home of tennis. The guide at Wimbledon brought us into Centre Court, the Media Centre and several others areas of the famous club. A cinema trip, some food and a quick look around the shops brought us up to a well deserved bed-time at the hostel.
The following morning we took in some sightseeing (Buckingham Palace, the London Eye, etc) before heading to the O2 Arena and the ATP Tour Finals. Watching some of the best players in the world at close quarters was a fantastic experience (so much so, we spent too long and almost missed the last tube back to the hostel). On our final day we went back again to the O2 for another session at the tennis, before making the journey back to Heathrow for our flight home.
A huge thanks to all involved and hopefully those of you who came with us enjoyed the weekend. For all our photos make sure to visit the DG Tennis Facebook Page (HERE) and don’t forget to keep an eye on our DG Website for news of more trips, camps and events!
