During week two, I went to Chawton to visit the house of Mr. Darcy from the movie Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen. It is really the home of the Dutch and Duchess of Devonshire.  It was the most beautiful house I had ever seen in my life and the garden was amazing. I also went to the Museum of Childhood and I really enjoyed my time learning about the history of different games, dolls, and toys. Wednesday, we learned how to square dance and Virginia reel dance. I had a great time learning the dances and it was fun.

Today’s field trip, we went to Wimbledon to visit the lawn tennis museum and take a tour around the area. I had a great time going backstage and seeing where the champions actually play. Next time when I watch a tennis game, I can actually say that I have been there and that I got to see the trophies from Serena Williams and other famous tennis champions. What I really loved about today was going to the Queen Marys Garden. I enjoyed the park and all the roses that the park was surrounded with. It was filled with all types of flowers, roses of all colors, trees, plants, ponds, and fountains. It definitely seemed like a park that families can go to and enjoy their time. I had a great time this week and I really look forward for next week.
