My friend Hanna and I went around London for 2 days trying to find 12 landmarks that have to do with medicine and health. It was partly to educate us and fill us with relevant knowledge for our next topic which is Medicine and Health but it was also partly to exhaust us mentally and physically.
Education broadens the mind, but walking hurts. Ouch. Watch and enjoy to make our pain seem worth while and if you feel like completing the challenge, go ahead!

Here is the info.

• Do some research on the internet to decide a route and then visit some of these landmarks - visit one or visit them all!
