This weekend I went to London with my dad. We had free first class tickets for the train and the first class lounge. I had a hot chocolate in the first class lounge and my dad had an orange juice. When we got to London then we had our lunch (at McDonald's) and then went to Tower Pier. We took a boat to Greenwich Pier and walked through the foot tunnel under the river and back. after that we went up to the Royal observatory to look at the museum. Dad and I stepped on the Meridian Line.

On the second day then we went to the science museum. On the third floor then there was a bit called launch pad. it was all about how things worked and how things interacted with each other. There was a rocket show that showed you all about rockets. We were
showed Newtons three laws of motion. I had to be a
rocket and push against a wheelie chair to make it go.
After that then we went for lunch I had a fish and chips and Dad had some chicken and sweetcorn soup. For pudding I had a cookie as big as my head! After lunch we went to the future section. They had a big board that you could play games on like cloning extinct animals. Then we went to the who am I bit. There was a backwards driving game that was quite hard.

When we had lunch on the way home then I had a sausage roll and a chocolate pastry thing. On the train I had an Aero hot chocolate.

Hom Ed Group Fungi

Last week then me and the home ed group went on a walk in the woods to find some fungi. We didn't find many but we built a big den. Someone had already built a den so we ate our lunch in there and then stole the sticks off it! This is our den.
We had a lot of fun roling the sticks down the big hill that was there. I found a lot of really big sticks that broke when I pulled them down the hill.

Because we didn't find many fungi last week I went to the wood again with my Mum and we found a really big one. we also found a dog stinkhorn. My Mum has never seen one. Stinkhorns really smell.
