Task 2:
Below is a report by Sam on his trip to London.

I went on a day trip to London with Tom my best friend to visit the Tower of
London Madam Tussauds and Buckingham Palace.
Madam Tussauds which is world famous was my favourite place. There were large
life-like models of music sport and film stars.
The best part in my view was the Chamber of Horrors. Some people although not
my friend screamed when they went into the room. As you can imagine there were
dungeons prisons and evil criminals.
Although I would like to have had a ride on the London Eye we had to leave to
catch our train home.
