Neuschwanstein Castle

Today we went to Neuschwanstein Castle  . It was like a fairy tale castle. It was so cool. I love the story and all of it on the inside sadly we are not allowed to take photos inside.

The castle - it was very misty the day we went.


Neuschwanstein Castle was built for King Ludwig the second in the late 1800s

King Ludwig loved swans and books.

The castle from the bridge. So amazing.

Magic flute

Today we went to Marionettentheater Schloss Schonbrunn in Wien.

To watch the magic flute it was pretty cool and had lots of singing. The Marionettes where very complex in the way that they moved and could walk, dace and jump with the pull of a string.  The story is pretty complex so I am going to try to tell you in the simplest way.

A prince go hunting in the forest and got attacked by a serpent. Then some witches came and saved him. The witches boss the queen of the nights came and gave him a magic flute and said that here daughter is emprisioned by an evil man and has to be saved. Straight away the prince fell in love with the princess. He set of to get the princess back and found out the the said eval man was good and the queen of the nights was eval. So the prince went throw 3 tryles. The first one was science, the seceand one was fire, and the third one was water.

The marionettes. we got ot go back stage.

A report on Giraffes - from my Day at the Vienna Zoo

Today we went to the Vienna Zoo. I chose to study things about the Giraffe.
The giraffe is an mammal from Africa.  It has patches of colour on its fur. the patches are there so it blends into the forest. It is hiding from predators. Giraffes are hunted by lions they are also  by leopards, hyenas and wild dogs
 It has extremely long neck and legs. It's a very tall animal. Giraffes are usually found in savannas, grasslands, and open woodlands in Africa. They eat mostly acacia leaves. With thier long neck and legs they can reach the top of the tree so they have a lot of food. 
I reckon that giraffes are very cool animals.
