Climbing a Mountain & the Museum

We were driving along the road in the Isle of Skye on the weekend and we saw a mountain (well massive mountain to me). We thought we'd climb it so we did. We saw a deer at the top of the mountain. We were going to take a photo of it, but just as dad was about to, the deer ran away. This is a video of us on the top of the mountain the crackly sound is the wind blowing.

Anyway we got to the top and then it was time to go back down.(It was wet and mushy). We ran full pelt down the hill doing faceplants every now and again and once I did a faceplant, cracked up laughing and tried to get back up, but I was giggling too much so I fell back down into a puddle of water and got a wet bottom. Just as I had nearly got to the bottom of the mountain I stepped in a mud puddle and got my shoes dirty...they were wet for the rest of the day! We had to get changed into some new clothes because our other ones were soaked. Just as I was getting changed a car went by (on the narrow country road that not many cars used), I screamed and ran to the other side of the car.

On Wednesday we went to the Grampiam Transport Museum - it took half an hour to get there - it was in Aberdeenshire (the nearby towns to Aberdeen). At the Museum there were quizzes. The first quiz I did was one where you had to look for traffic light signs on the displays in the museum. The traffic light sign would have a question on it and I had to find out the answer to the question by reading the information about that thing. Then it would tell you what to look for to find the next traffic light sign. The most interesting thing I found out was that the prize for finishing the quiz was a lolly (typical! - Mum)....

There was a pentacycle - it had 5 wheels. The middle wheel is humungous and the other four wheels are smaller - two at the front and two at the back of the middle wheel. Do you know who used to ride these bikes? (the postmen).
I also saw the Mortier Organ - my guess at its size is that it was 4-5 metres high and 6-7 metres wide. It looked heaps cool. We asked them to turn the organ on and it was so loud I put my hands over my ears (look at the photo!).

There was an old fashioned black and gold car and on it was engraved 'Joanna II' (see the photo).Mum made us leave at 2.30 even though she'd said that we could at 3pm (we had to leave because we were playing hide and seek and trying to do even more quizzes to get more lollies, as they had just put some lollipops out which weren't there when we got our lolly earlier).

Here's a photo of what I usually do when we're at home or in the car driving. This picture is of me in pj's at 1pm!
