It is always a great joy for us when we get a report or letter from one of our "magic lamp children", in this case from Zille: how did she feel, what did she see, did she enjoy the trip and most of all, were we able to fulfill her dream as she hoped?
When we said goodbye, she got as a farewell present a small mailbox like money box, so she can save money to return the soonest to England...
Read Zille's following lines with love:

My long-standing dream was to visit London one day. I can't really explain why I chose this city, I just heard a lot of good things about it, saw beautiful pictures of its sights, and recently started learning English, so I definitely wanted to go to an English-speaking country. Miraculously, my dream came true thanks to the Magic Lamp Foundation!

My first big surprise came when I could sit in the cockpit and walk around the plane in a cool yellow vest. The crew was very kind, I could take pictures with them, and they even gave us a little gift package.

We were greeted with the same great hospitality at the hotel. The buffet breakfast was the best, and the local muffins were unmatched. I had a lot of experiences. We visited, among others: Tower of London, Tower Bridge, BBC Experience, Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, Madame Tussauds, and the London Eye.

I can't choose which one I liked the most, they all had their own charm. We walked a lot every day, average 15,000 steps, but we didn't feel tired at all. Orientation was relatively easy, from the second day we knew which direction each metro line was going and what its final stop was. We didn't just travel by subway, we also tried the black taxi and the red London bus. Luckily, I had a seat on the upper deck, in the front row, so I could admire the city of London from above, just like from the London Eye.

The weather was fantastic too! Pleasant temperature, we didn't freeze, didn't get sunburned, and it didn't even rain except for one evening, but only for max. 10 minutes. At least I can say that I held an umbrella in my hand in London.
My positive experience was that the people living and working there were helpful, polite, and much calmer than here in Hungary.

I had a really great time in London, and I'm sure I will return to this dream city in my lifetime.
