Guest post-Ironbridge

I haven't written much this week as we have spent the last three days with some kind friends, over on the Welsh border. This is a guest post from my middle son. We use a private blog for a part of his English and this is copied, with kind permission, from there.

On Wednesday, we went to a place called Ironbridge.
First of all, we went to a museum called Enginuity.http://www.ironbridge.org.uk/our_attractions/enginuity/
At Enginuity, there are lots of fun things like pulling a steam train, building an earthquake proof building, and there is also a robot that can build the Eiffel tower and the Iron Bridge, it can also play music on a keyboard. You can also generate electricity on a machine and
then see which appliance uses most electricity.
Afterwards we went to the Iron Bridge which
was made in the Industrial Revolution.
At first we had wanted to buy a sausage roll at an excellent butcher in Much Wenlock but it was closed so we had to have lunch at a cafe in Ironbridge which was very nice.
After that we walked about a bit and then we went home before our trip to Wales the next day.

  1. We've been to Ironbridge twice since we've lived here, but we've never been to the Enginuity Museum. We'll have to do that sometime!
