Kevin: Tour in New Lanark

Today was by far the best day so far. We went to the Tearoom of the estate for breakfast and had eggs, sausage, bacon, and black pudding. I know you are wondering what black pudding is, but you don't want to know. It is boiled blood. Disgusting, right? Luckily, we didn't have to eat all of it, so nobody ate it. Then, we went with Andy (the chief's son) to New Lanark and looked around the cotton mills that were powered by hydroelectric power. Then, we went to the gift shop where I bought a model airplane that I built in an hour. We made our own pizza for lunch, then we went to to an arts & crafts activity. We traced a design to but on a t-shirt later in the week. Then, we traced a design onto a peice of plastic to made a stained glass window thingy. Now we are in our cottage again, either blogging or playing Scrabble.
