While we visited the gardens at the People's Palace Alison and I had a contest. 1. We would imitate a plant 2. The other person would guess which plant.
Alison totally won!
The People's Palace is a museum that shows the history of Glasgow. In history classes we were taught about the London Blitz, but only discussed London, so it was interesting learning how badly Glasgow was bombed as well. For some reason it never occurred to me that the rest of the United Kingdom would be bombed as well.
In the museum you can enter a bunker (covered in sandbags) that people would go to when the alarm sounded. They could be in these bunkers for hours and sometimes they had to spend the night in them. It was a TINY bunker. Seeking shelter there would have been very scary.
And we may have posed for a photo-op....

The last picture is VERY funny!! It's good to learn the history of places you visit. It helps you understand the people.
This is such a fun post...I really enjoyed it!
