Hi!
Today I came home from Scout camp! It was very fun! I stayed in a tent for a week and we did all sorts of exciting activities like canoeing, exploring caves, climbing up cliffs and hiking! It was very exciting! Unfortunately, we couldn't take any photos in case we got lost or couldn't catch up with the rest of the group, but I did really enjoy camping!

Stonehenge, UK - 14th August 2012
By: MySongIsLaughter
Hi!
Today I visited Stonehenge! It was very impressive. The stones are huge - I can't imagine how they were put there 4000 years ago! I liked looking at the stones, and also learning about all the myths about why they're there. Some people think it's for looking at stars, and others think it's for telling what month it is. It could even just be built so someone could show how powerful they are!

Edinburgh, UK - 18th August 2012
By: MySongIsLaughter
Hi!
Guess where I am - Scotland! How did that happen? (I think it was something to do with a very long car journey but I slept for most of the journey)
So today we went into Edinburgh for a bit of a look around. The train journey was quite fun - I saw lots of nice fields and hills and sheep!
While we were in Edinburgh, we went to the Camera Obscura which is really cool! You have to go into a dark room and through a set of mirrors and lenses they can project an image of exactly what's happening outside. They can move the mirrors, so we could see all around Edinburgh without even having to move!
We also went to see Edinburgh Castle, which is really cool
I'm looking forward to seeing more of Scotland this week!

Hi!
Today, we went to a transport museum in Glasgow. It was really interesting! We saw lots of old cars, bikes, and other vehicles. They also had lots of old fashioned clothes, and we met some toys from the 1960s and 1970s. It was good fun looking around and learning what life was like in recent history!

Surbiton, UK - 1st September 2012

Hi!
Today Frances was going to visit some friends, so she said we could come on the train with us. We got to see a lot of the South of England on the way up, and we had a cup of tea and a roll! On the way home, it was dark so we couldn't see anything so instead we read a magazine about Doctor Who, a popular tv series. We also ate a chocolate lollipop! When we were about half an hour from home, the train got stuck and we had to wait 50 minutes for an engineer to come and fix the barrier so we could move! It was a bit scary, because it was so dark outside!

Portsmouth, UK - 3rd September 2012

Hi!
Today we went with Frances for a bike ride, because we've been watching the cycling on the paralympics and wanted to try it for ourselves! She apologised that we couldn't go as quickly as the people we were watching on the television, but that was fine for us!
After we had been cycling for a while, we started to feel a bit drowsy as it was so hot, so we stopped off for some water in the shade. While we were there we picked some blackerries which were very yummy!

Waterlooville, UK - 17th September 2012

Hi!
Today we went into college with Frances! I was very excited, but I didn't like having to get up early and stand on the crowded bus. Fortunately, the journey wasn't too long and soon we were at the college where we went into a small room to listen to Frances practicing her flute.
We had music lessons all day, which was pretty cool! The first class was performance, where everyone was working on their confidence and assertiveness so we got to see them doing some pretty crazy things! The next class was community project, so everyone was practicing teaching each other!
We then had a bit of time for lunch, so we went to the college canteen. Frances had made us some yummy wraps, and a muffin, which we enjoyed eating while we chatted with her friends.
In the afternoon, we had listening where we heard some different Baroque pieces which I thought sounded really cool! We then had harmony, where we were learning to write like the Baroque composers we were listening to. It was really cool!
The college is quite big, with about 6000 students and hundreds of different courses. We didn't get to see very much of it, but we enjoyed being in the music department. The building's very cool, with a slanted roof for better acoustics and lots of little rooms for people to practice in. Also, everyone was friendly to us!

Hi!
A package arrived today, which was very exciting! We knew it was Spikey Dragon, because he had his name written on the envelope, but we couldn't get it open without Frances so we had to wait until she got home in the evening.
It's so great to have another new friend here in Portsmouth!

Hi!
Today, we made some yummy muffins! Frances had a chocolate bar, so we wanted to see if we could make it last a bit linger
I didn't want to get too messy, so I mainly helped getting the ingredients out and putting them back while the muffins were cooking.
When the muffins were done, we took them out of the oven really quickly so we could put a square of chocolate on each of them and watch it melt. It was pretty cool

Southsea, UK - 13th October 2012
By: MySongIsLaughter
Hi!
It's starting to get cold and dark here, and so we decided to enjoy the last of the sunshine by going for a walk by the seaside. We enjoyed looking out over the sea, and playing in the stones.
We also had some yummy chips, with salt and vinegar. It was good to have something warm as it's so cold here!
