Alexandra Palace, north London, UK - 23rd September 2012

By: Thomisa

Hi Mum!

Well, today we went to a Christmas craft fair at Alexandra Palace. This is a very impressive building, built in 1873. It's the place where the first television service was broadcast by the BBC:

I had an amazing view across London! In the background you can see St. Paul's Cathedral, the Shard and the Gherkin:

This is all of us in the car driving up to the Palace. We were going to get the train but it wasn't working. You can see the mast:

And here I am inside:

There were lots of stalls. Host mum and host nan bought some things to help them make Christmas cards and other crafty items:

You can also see the famous organ in the background. It's called the Willis Organ and has been there since 1875!

We had a great day, but I was exhausted by the end  :thinking:

Bye for now,
Mishuta
