London Pictures

April 30, 2013 Hubbard's Cupboard 1 Comment

I decided that London was one of the hardest places to take pictures at! It’s because it’s so crowded. I enjoyed our trip to London but I am so grateful I don’t live there. London is the most populated city I’ve ever been. I’m not used to crowds and lines. It was a new experience for me. It was the first time I’ve taken a real subway system! The tube is absolutely amazing. I can’t believe a train comes every 2 minutes and it’s packed with people. We went on a Harry Potter walk and shopped at a fancy shopping district. I thought London was exactly what you see in the movies. The best part of the trip was meeting my long lost cousin for the first time.

This post is more about New Grange. New Grange is a very old tomb. It was predicted to be build back in 3200 BC! I won’t go into much detail about New Grange because you can just read the wiki on New Grange.

Now for the adventure to Four Knocks… you have to go ask Mrs. White who lives in a white house next to the tiny village of Four Knocks. Her number is +353 (0) 1 8354722. This is Mrs. White’s House:

You give her some money for the key. The money is only a deposit. You’ll get it back if you return the key to her before 6 pm.

She’ll give you the instructions on how to get to Four Knocks Tomb.

Here’s the Four Knocks Tomb on the left:

Here’s the door of the tomb:

Here’s some facts about the Four Knocks Tomb:

Here’s inside the tomb:

If you want to see more you’re just going to have to go for yourself cause we didn’t get very many pictures. We were a little creeped out and we didn’t bring a flash light!
