The Changing of the Guard and Greenwich

Jo: 'Where did you go and what did you see on Thursday morning?'

We went to Covent Garden and walked through Trafalgar Square and St James' Park. We also saw Downing Street, which is famous because the Prime Minister lives there. Then we walked to Buckingham Palace where we saw The Changing of The Guard.

In this photo, we are standing next to a guard from Buckingham Palace.

Jo: 'Where did you go on Thursday afternoon? How did you travel there? What did you see and do? Why is Greenwich an important place?

We went to Greenwich by boat. Greenwich is a important place because , there is the meridian line.
First we went into Discover Greenwich, where we put on sailors' hats.






In the photo on the left, Ellie is a sick sea man and lio is the crazy Dr.
In the photo on the right, Hannah is wearing armour.
In the top two photos, we are all wearing sailors' hats.

Then we went to Greenwich Park and we climbed the hill to the Royal Observatory, where we stood on the Meridian Line.

The Meridian Line is in the middle of the world, dividing the East and the West sides.



In this photo, we are standing on the line.

Then we returned by boat. We were very tired!
