Day 21 - Hampton Court

Torsten – Today we explored Hampton Court, a castle built by King Henry VIII. In the castle we saw King Henry VIII’s apartments which was where he lived. In his apartments there was the Great Hall where he held banquets, his bedroom, a hall full of paintings, and the Great Watching Chamber where people would wait for King Henry VIII. Then we saw the kitchens; the use is very obvious. Lastly we finally explored the gardens. In the gardens there was a maze built for William III. My hat got lost in the maze (not really, I still have it).

Natasha – Today we looked around Hampton Court. After that we went to The Magic Garden, a play structure which have a splash pad! Torsten poured a large bucket of water on me. I got soaked! I liked it though, it was a hot day and I was cooled off for quite a few minutes. After that we had ices.

Day 4 Haugesund

Torsten - This morning we arrived in Haugesund, Norway. The first thing we did in Haugesund was we went inside the chapel. The chapel was big and brown. Next we went to an open air museum we made a toy boat. It started raining so we couldn’t explore the museum. We went to a second museum and we did a treasure hunt there. So we had lunch at a café than went back to the cruise ship. We had dinner than watched Avengers. The waves are rough tonight. My hat is on our desk. Natasha – Today I had trouble on the ship because there are big waves and I am very dizzy! We went to Haugesund, Norway.

Day 24 - London Eye, Brass Rubbing and Natural History Museum

Natasha – First thing in the morning we went on the London Eye, it was so big, and we boarded it but it was still moving! After the London Eye, which was breathtaking, we went to a Brass Rubbing Centre and rubbed some brass! It was fun, the rubbing, and we chose beautiful things to rub too. As a conclusion I think it a very good end of this trip. Bye – Bye! Torsten – The first thing in the morning we did was get on the London Eye. I got a lot of great photos at the top. After that we went to a brass rubbing place where you rub a piece of paper with wax and it makes a picture of what was underneath. The last thing we did today was see the Natural History Museum. It was very big there were sections on geology, biodiversity, and everything in between (of things in nature). My hat is sad to leave London.
