London





On Wednesday we went to London. We saw Big Ben and rode the London Eye.   I thought the London Eye was really cool because we went really high in the sky. On Thursday morning, we went to Buckingham Palace. At Buckingham Palace we saw guards being changed in their boxes. Buckingham Palace looks like the White House. Then we went to the British Museum and saw a dead person. He crawled up in a ball and buried himself in sand so he wouldn't disintegrate. After that we saw the Rosetta Stone. Before they fond the Rosetta Stone, nobody know what pole were wriing, like heiroglyohics for instance. We also saw the Easter Island statue from the movie Night at th Museum. After that, we went to the Pancake House to eat.  Everything they have is pancakes that are like crepes. I had a mozzarella and bacon one. The next day, we went to the Tower of London. At the Tower of London we saw the armour for the horses and knights. We saw carvings in the wall where the prisoners were kept. The prisoners carbed theiur bames on the alls. We saw the bloody tower. The uncle locked his two nephews in the tower so they cluldn;t be king. Two hunfred yers later they found their bones. After the Tower of London, we went to the Victoria and Albert museum and had lunch there. Then we went to St. Martins-in-the-Field to do brass rubbings. i did a dragon rubbing.  Iliked mine a lot. I felt so ptoud. We also got a do at home kit for brass rubbings. I got a lion for home. On Saturday, we went to the Tate Modern museum and saw paintings by "Jack the Dripper" (Jackson Pollock) and Picasso. One picture was just a cut in a piece of paper. In another room we saw flatternded silverwear hangikng by strings at the same height. In anogther rom we saw a soap kabob. In anlother room, there was a big crack in the floor but that was art. When we left,  I blew away because the wind was like a tornadoe swirling about. When I was walkikng with my family I rthiught it would be so copol iof I could fly so I jumped the same way the wind was going and I got blown into the bushes. We ran to a taxi and went to the Pancake House again. Next we went to the Hamely's Toy store. It was insane. It was a boom mash crack. I was likwe so excitedx there was a huge Bionicle and it was so crazy like Baallalalalalalalalal. Thwn we went home. I thought London was great.
