Visiting Sherborne Castle

On Saturday we went to Sherborne Castle. We walked around the castle along a nice river. I saw three white ducks. Then we went for a walk in the gardens. There were lots of ducks there who followed us until they realised we had no food for them.

Jemma left today and we had a goodbye lunch just like my farewell party at school when I left Australia.

A special message for Jared and Hanah - Are you enjoying school? Hope you enjoy your cold winter. We are going in to summer.

Dragons and Shields

This weekend we went to the Abbey. We made some shields - I made one in the shape of Australia with water around it. It looked fantastic. We saw two funny men. One taught me how to weave like they did in the old days. The other funny man told us about the history of the Abbey. We listened to a story about St George and also went on a hunt in the museum.

Then we went to Cheddar George. (I think they should have called it Cheddar Cheese). Dad and me climbed very high - about 100 metres up the rocks.

It was a good weekend.

I am missing everyone.

We visited the queen

The whole family went to London for three days. We visited lots of places including big ben - a really big clock, Buckingham Palace - where the queen lives, and London Eye - a really big wheel.

The best part was London Tower. There were people who were pretending to be the king and queen acting.

I also liked watching the change of the guards. There were lots of horses and men in funny hats. This is a phot of me and my sister trying to make the man laugh.

Today we went to a big castle called Lulworth. We went for an easter egg hunt - i found 1 egg.

We were laughing at the mad hatter who was reading us a story with Alice. We made a scary face and made him suck his thumb saying "I want my moma". I also made bunny ears which we wore.

The Mad Hatter was very crazy.

The castle was not broken down like corf castle we went to before.

Magic stones

This is me at a place called Stonehenge. It was very old. They kept rebuilding it. There were these phone things that you put around your neck that told you all about the history. Each time you found a number you would press it on the machine and it would tell you about what you were looking at.

My sisters were just pretenting they were real phones and talked to each other.

My moms mom is here (I call her Jemma). She came with us.

The best part of the day was all the things I learnt from listening to the machine.

Corf Castle

Today we went to Corf Castle. We got their by an old steam train. When we got there we found a tower. We guessed what used to be in it - I think there was stairs for men to watch out for bad people. There were also holes in the wall which people shot arrows through.

There was also a jester performing. It was fun. He juggled when standing on a ball and juggled knives over children. Lucky he did not do it over me.

Before we went home we went to a cafe and had a hot chocolate and scons. It was yummy !

We caught a train back home.
