My first visit to London

Paddington bear.

Hello, again!
Today's blog is all about my first visit to London...

Sleeper train to London.

Our journey began in the evening at the train station. The pic above is me in the sleeper train passageway. 

And as you can see it was super small...   







Skipping ahead to the next morning, breakfast options were plentiful. 


Portobello Road.

After wondering around Paddington station for a while we took the tube to portobello road.








There were many interesting shops to wander around.. 


The Natural history museum.
We also visited The Natural History Museum, where there were many interesting fossils. We drew some of them too...

 Next, we went to a small exhibition (outside The Natural History Museum) that was a tent that inclosed many free roaming butterflies! I was scared at first... But after a little, while I calmed down and even managed to do a quick drawing!


Next, on our journey, we went to Trafalgar Square. The top pic is me sitting by a fountain and the left one is me trying to slide down a handrail.  Strangely enough...


 

As the day drew to an end we walked down Little Venice. This was very magical and looked like something out of the Studio Ghibli film "Spirited Away"...  

That's it for now so
I hope you enjoyed this post!

Our permaculture allotment

Our allotment Hello peeps! Today's blog post is about our allotment wich my mum Melissa, our dog Fudge, and I enjoy visiting... As you can see we have a wood burner which we use to keep warm in the winter. Sometimes we even cook potatoes in there, wrapped in tinfoil.   ↜ Over there: we like to take cold drinks to the allotment (in summer) which we drink with our reusable rainbow metal straws! My fave drink of the mo is Karma Cola's 'Lemony Lemonade'. Why not check out their cool ethical website hear:  Karma Cola   Permaculture keyhole bed  Our next allotmenteering adventure is to make a Permaculture keyhole bed. We plan to grow strawberries in the side and veg in the top!    Why not check out this awesome video here:  permaculture video ?   Mist at the allotment. Well, this is the end of this blog post.  Hopefully, we won't get any giant slugs eating our veg. Again.  lov...

Will it snow again this year in Cornwall?

Today I have been pondering whether it will snow again here in Cornwall UK, like it did last March... So I thought I would share with you some photos of when 'The Beast From The East' came to Cornwall.... View to our garden by the sea. Fudge eating snow. I remember when it first started to snow I couldn't believe it, as it has only snowed three times before in the more than eight years that I have lived in Cornwall!  But last years was the biggest lot of snow by far!   No snow today but lots of wind. Back tomorrow with our results of our RSPB Big Garden Bird Wach. Over and out x

A welcome to my new blog.

Me holding our homegrown sunflowers. Hello peeps and welcome to my new blog!  My name is Gaia and I am 13 years old. I am home educated (or world schooled as we like to call it) by my mum Melissa. Here are some things about me; things I love are my large collection of houseplants, pokemon card and Nintendo games, skateboarding, making clay dragons, pomelos (a large grapefruit-like fruit), and taking the family dog Fudge for walks. One of my newly discovered planets.  I am currently pondering worlds within worlds. The picture above is one I took of the stem of a feather viewed down a microscope.      I  am thinking:  "what creatures live in this microscopic world?" "where in the universe does this planet live?" "Could every grain of sand hold another planetary system?" All are worth sitting down with a cup of cocoa and a biscuit to think. Anyway, that's i...
