Miriam visited several locations in England including the Doctor Who set, Highclere Castle which is the Downton Abbey location, and Buckingham Palace. She then traveled to Scotland where she saw Loch Ness, West Highland Lochs featured in Downton Abbey, and Balmoral Castle from Doctor Who. Her travels took her next to France, with visits to the Musee d'Orsay and Versailles both seen in Doctor Who, as well as the Eiffel Tower. Her final destination was China, where she went to the Forbidden City, the Terracotta Army site, and walked a section of the Great Wall.

1. England

2. Hey,
I’ve just been to England and it was great! I went to three places in
England; The Doctor Who set, Highclere Castle, and Buckingham Palace.
The Doctor Who set was amazing. I actually got to see everything and
since Doctor Who is my favorite show that was pretty amazing. Then I
went to Highclere Castle. This is the set of Downton Abbey, another one of
my favorite shows. This was awesome because not only did I see the
beautiful castle, but I also saw the Earl and Countess. Highclere also has
historical significance in the sense that it housed and still does house an
Egyptian exhibit because the 5th Earl explored the Pyramids of Egypt. He
also helped to find the tomb of King Tutankhamen. Then I went to
Buckingham Palace. Though I didn’t see the Queen, I did see Kate
Middleton which was pretty cool. I’ll send you another post card from my
next destination which will hopefully be Scotland.
Bye For Now,
Miriam

3. Scotland

4. Hey,
So I was just in Scotland and it was really awesome. I went to three
places. These places were Loch Ness, West Highland Lochs, and
Balmoral Castle. I wanted to visit Loch Ness because it looked like a
really beautiful place to visit. When I got there I was right. It was really
beautiful and there were no monsters(haha). Then I visited West
Highland Lochs. I wanted to visit West Highland Lochs Because it was in
Downton Abbey and it looked like a really beautiful castle. There were
some great paintings. After that I visited Balmoral Castle. I wanted to
visit Balmoral Castle because I saw it in Doctor Who and, even though I
didn’t see a lot of it in Doctor Who, I still wanted to see the grounds.
Well my next place will be France.
Till Then,
Miriam

5. France

6. Hey,
So there are going to be a lot of Doctor Who references in my postcards. I
was just in France. The first place that I went was the Musee d’ Orsay in
Paris. The Musee d’ Orsay is one of the most famous art museums in the
world. The main reason that I wanted to come here is because I saw it in
one of my favorite episode of Doctor Who. The other reasons is that I
really love art . The next stop was Versailles. Versailles was also seen in one
of my favorite Doctor Who episodes. Versailles has some historical
importance as well. During the French Revolution this palace was built by
Louis XIV. This was not only a palace, but a symbol of the wealth of the
French Aristocracy. The next stop was the Eiffel Tower. The reason that I
traveled here was because everyone was talking about it and I figured that
it was finally time for me to go. Well my next and last stop is China.
Bye,
Miriam

7. China

8. Hey,
So I just went to China. It was amazing. First I went to the
Forbidden City in Beijing. It was so crowded, but when I finally
got in, there was beautiful artwork and some pretty extravagant
architecture. I wanted to go to the Forbidden City because it is a
very commonly known place in China which people always say is
amazing. After that, I went to the site of the Terracotta Warriors
in Xi’an. We had been learning about this for a long time in school
and I finally decided to go. The Terracotta Warriors was in the
Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor. And then, I finally went to
The Great Wall. The Great Wall is on the northern China border
that is near Mongolia. It was very useful for protection when on
the Silk Road. The Great Wall is also 13,171 miles long. I thought
that it was pretty cool. Well that’s it for my trip.
Bye,
Miriam
