Hi everyone

Today we went to Oxford. It was a nice little town, with lots of old Buildings, they were spectacular. The things we saw were Christ Church College, the Radcliffe Camera, The Martyrs' Memorial, Bridge of Sighs, The Pitt Rivers Museum, and Corpus Christi. They were really good. The Museum was really good there were lots of fossils of different anaimals. There were also lots of Rocks that looked brilliant.



Then we went to Blenheim, to see the Blenheim Palace Mum said it was going to be brilliant but it was sort of anticlimatic because we did not go in!! It looked pretty good from the outside.



Then we went to Gloucester where we went to a Church. It was beautiful there were so many carvings out of Rocks. there also there was a massive Organ that was at least 20m tall.

School is good my first Rugby game is on Monday i wonder if i will be any good. Declan is doing well, he has played a couple of Rugby games he won 14 to 19. Keep readding.

18th to the 24th

Hi everyone
School has been going good. I am getting into Rugby it is so easy to drop kick the ball.

On the 24th we went to Avebury the whole town was circled in these stones that were standing out of the ground mum said they were from 3000 BC and they were pretty big.


Then it was off to Stonehenge but first we had to go to woodhenge it was the worst thing i have seen so far because it was just concrete posts sticking out of the ground from 1970! Stonehenge was really good but we were so far away from it but, we got lots of photos. Look at Dads blog for the photos.

Then we went to Salisbury where there is a Cathedral that has a very tall tower it is the tallest in England you were meant to pay butwe snuck in the back door. the Cathedral was full of English Gothic architecture it also had tall pointed windows. We walked through the Bishop gardens. The hole day was really good.

15th to 17th of the 1st 09

Hi everyone
Today we went to Bath.There was a big church with so many engravings on the sides and the roof was so far up. But i think most Churches are like that.

Then we went to the Roman Baths, it is a big bath that is heated by a hot spring to about 40 c. There was a lot of History so we had to walk through all of that other then that it was good.

After that we went to cheddar, as we were driving into it there were so many cliffs that just went straight up and they were as tall as Big Ben they were fantastic. We stopped to take a photo of Goats on the side of the cliff.

We also went into a cave that was called Gough's Cave it was really good there were lots off those things that hang off the ceiling (stalic tites) there was one that looked like a Frozen water fall it was spectacular. I really liked it.

School is going well i missed out on the footy team because i was crap. It is all good. Blackburn Wain's how is your Dog and what is it's name.All photos are not working so look at dads for them At wainsinwales.blogspot.com

London 9 to 10/1/09

Hi everyone

Going through London was like going around the Monopoly Board but not the right way and a lot more interesting.

First it was Euston station, we had to park our car at the car park. But when Dad went a to meeting me, Mum, Dec and Thyson went around London.

Second it was Trafalgar Square after a cold walk.The Fountains were all iced up. Nelson's Column it is massive. So i would say it was the 4th best thing we saw.

3rd it was off to Buckingham Palace but on the way we saw some of parliament. We also went through a big park called St James Park and parts of the river were frozen but only thin and there were some squirrels that crawled up Thyson's leg. Once we got out of the freezing park there was the Palace. There was no changing of the guard, I don't know why though. We stayed there for about 30 mins. It was the 5th best thing we saw.

After that it was Big Ben, it was massive. I thought it was great. We heard it chime 2 times. The thing that it was attached to was very big and looked great. It was easily the 3rd best thing we saw.

Then we went to Piccadilly Circus but we had to have lunch, because we had Thyson and Declan we could not eat anywhere different, so It was the Big M (Mcdonalds) again. Then Piccadilly Circus was ok. It's really just big screens and a horrible intersection but Mum loved. It She said it is just like what she had seen on t.v. It was only the 6th best thing we saw.

For the night we stayed in a dodgy hotel. Guess what? We had to walk around again because Dad wanted to see everything we saw, my legs were hurting so much. After that we had tea at a Indian Restaurant, it was pretty nice.

The next day we thought we would use the tube we found it hard to get to the right platform and when we got off the train we were still miles from the Place we wanted to be but we weren't lost!!!After we walked past the eye (It wasn't open because of repairs which was a bummer) we also went past London Bridge to get to the Tower Bridge and that was fantastic. We did the tour where you could go up the top and see how it was built and see the views but it was foggy which was a bummer and they did not do the lifting of the arms which was a double bummer other than that i would rate that 2nd over all.

Next up was London Tower, Mum said it was where they kept all the Money and things we did not go in because it was very xy. I think that it would of been a tie for 2nd.

The Best thing by far was St Paul's Cathedral. It looked so good and inside was brilliant. It was so and the big and brick work was unbelievable. We didn't go in because it was xy so i can not tell you much about it but the outside was incredible and that is why that is my favorite place in London.

Overall I really liked London it was a very interesting place I loved It. The Photos will be there tomz. soz about the spelling.
