I went back in time at Archeon. I am in a medieval village and I found these animals. What can you see? only 2 types where outside, all the rest were in a barn. Some of the houses had bsrns at the back of thr house with a half wall seperating the people from the animals. Behind the bee keepers house was a garden with vegetables and fkowers. Did you see the bee hives? The bes are a bit small to see but they look blsck around the entrance to the hive.
I also went back to Roman timrs. I saw lots of soldiers. I did not like the toliets because you had to sit in a room with lots of other people. Can you see the wooden bucket and the sponge for wiping that is beside me? The people here found an old boat and are fixing it. The blavk wood is what they found and the white wood is the new wood. They have been given 5 years to fix it, They have 2 more years to go. I got tired and I found a friend to sleep with in a Roman vills!
Monday
I went to Delft today. The canals were pretty with there flowers. The canal is like the white line in the middle of the road. The cars go in one direction on one side of the canal and the opposite direction on the other side. I saw a man making wooden clogs. He said he only makes them for people not for cats!
I wanted to play with this little dog but he only wanted to look at his friend. I was sad.

I was scared this giant owl would think I was a mouse and eat me!
Friday Day Three
I got a train from Amsterdan to Steenwijk then a bus to Groon. The houses all have thatched roofs and every section has canals instead of fences. in the old days they dug peat out and sold it. Where the dug water seeped in and created canals. The front was the house and from the black timber part was the barn. from Johnny
The sun was setting at Singapore airport. The sun looked like a large red ball.
We arrived in Amsterdam very early on Tuesday morning. Miss Hammerich took the wrong train and we ended up in Amsterdam. The canal was busy with lots of canal boats. can you see the red flowers? Do you notice the buildings are different?
