First Day in Scotland

Today we first went to the Edinburgh Castle. It is really old and medival looking. The tour we took was really interesting. Next, me, my dad and brother went to a museum called the Camera Obscura. It is filled with optical illusions and science experiments that have to do with lights and mirrors. They also have 3-D images and holograms. We went back to the room and swam in the pool at the hotel and then went out to dinner at an Indian Restraunt. It was a really fun day!!!

Going To Scotland

Today we took a train to Edinburgh, Scotland. We had first class seats, they were really comfortable!!! It was very relaxing. Our hotel is awesome and we have nice, big rooms.

Leaving London

We are waiting to take a train to Edinburg, Scotland. Bye!!!

Hampton Court

Today we went to Hampton Court which is a palace built in the 1500's. The Royal Family used to live in it but they don't anymore. We took a tour and saw a lot of the rooms. The outside is beautiful because it has so many gardens and fountains. There was one man-made lake which was about 2 miles long!!! My family took the train to Hampton Court, which is outside London, and saw lots of homes and towns. I had a very fun but tiring day!!!

Harrods!!!

Today we first saw the changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace. It is when the new guards march in and take over for the old guards. It happens everyday at 11:30am. The changing of the guards was fun to watch. Then, we went to the Natural History Museum and saw a model of a blue whale. My favorite thing was the Red Panda. Next, we went to Harrods, which is a famous and big department store. It is so big we got lost in it and they give you maps!!! We also had dinner at one of the restarunts there. I had a fun day!!!

The Wax Museum

Today we went to church at Westminster Cathederal and then we took a boat to Greenwich and saw the Meridan Line. You could stand in the West and East Hempishire at the same time!!! We had dinner at Pizza Express. It is a different chain than the ones in the U.S. and is much nicer and has better pizza!!! The first picture is of me with a silver angel we saw standing on the street and the next one is a picture of me and Dan Radcliffe (we saw him at the wax museum and he is made out of wax. The wax figures look pretty realistic.) Bye for now!!!

The First Day

Today we took a tour on a double-decker bus. It was fun but then it started raining so we went inside the bus. After that we went to a wax museum. It had cool statues that looked like they were real people. It was so much fun!!! After that we had dinner at the hotel room. The time here is five hours ahead of Bedford so it feels like late afternoon but it is really ten o'clock. I will write again tomorrow. Bye!!!

In Europe!!!

We arrived in Europe yesterday morning. Last night at midnight me and Charles got the British copy of Harry Potter 7. It is really good. We just had breakfast which was awesome and we are going back to our room. Yesterday morning in London there was four inches of rain in one hour!!! Luckily, we just missed it and were able to land. They cancelled 140 flights but not ours!!! Bye for now.
