Skara Brae

We had a great time at Skara Brae and the Ring of Brodgar. In the museum at the visitor centre we saw some of the things that people would have used 5000 years ago.




The heather looked lovely and comfortable. Long ago people used it to line their stone beds.

Mudfest


Although we knew that he was very secretive we went up to Muddisdale to look for the Green Man. We hunted high and low but couldn't find him anywhere. We thought about what he might look like and tried to make him.

Archaeology

When Caroline came to visit she brought some of the tools that she uses on digs around the world.


She also showed us copies of some of the things that she has found.
