War horse review

Today we went to see War horse in the theater in London.

It was awesome that they could have real sized marrionette and puppett horses. It was amazing when the actors got on a sat on them and really ride them around.
Now I need to watch the movie and read the book. The book is a childrens book so its ok for me to read.  I can't give a call on how much it sticks to the movie or book but mum said it was pretty true.

One of the things that was good is that it had hardly any singing and more story.  There was lots of action and gun fights. I would rate it a 8.7/10. It's a go see play and I loved it.

Paycockes house and garden

Today we went to paycocke house. It was a Tudor house a very rich house. The owner got a lot of money from cloth. He made cloth and sold it. The house was very interesting and had a lot of cool things like coat of arms and belive it or not a bed post. The bed post had a fleurdelis on it witch is the symbol of royalty. There garden was pretty small. It had croquet in it so we gave it a shot and I loved playing it. It's so simple yet I thought it was as hard as chess to a beginner.

Trengwainton Gardens in Cornwall

Today we went to Trengwainton Gardens in Cornwall We learnt how to identify plants. 

There are 4 ways to identify the plant. These are by looking at leaves, fruit, flowers and the shape of the plant.

This is comfrey. It is good for bones and sprains.

These are strawberry plants. Can you spot the fruit.

This is a zuccni. It grows on a long vine like plant.

This is a bean plant. The Beans a very small.

These is a grape plant. There are a few grape bunches here.

Grimes graves

Today we went to Grimes Graves.

It is a Neolithic mine for flint. We got to go into the mine and see every thing in there. We climbed a ladder down and up.  It was amazing. These mines where for flint so they cam make arrow heads, spear heads and conetsy.

How they got down back in the day.

Lavenham 2014

Today we went to Lavenham again and visited the house.

The house was like every Tudor house that I've been to apart from yesterday's.

This one was normal rich and had a cellar and a little garden.

Becuase I am focusing on architecture, I am looking at the way buildings are made. The tudor house is made by cutting wood and believe it or not no nails. The slid then together like a puzzle and sealed it with a peg.

The main frame is made out of mud and sticks like this.

                                                          

This is a house being made in its first form.

After the white stuff is the final of the mud and sticks. Amazing. Can you guess what roof this is?!

We saw alot of thatched houses all over England.

Cheddar caves

Today we went into the two cheddar caves. Yes there is a town called cheddar. In cheddar they found cheddar in a cave being made by cheddar fairys so go's the tail. The caves where amazing.
