On our third and last day, we had plans to go to Bletchley Park which was the central site for Britain's codebreakers during World War Two. It was run by the Governments Code and Cypher School.
We left after breakfast. Only Toby, Alex, my mum and I went because Emma went to school and Anna had to rest. Once we got there, there was a beautiful museum and interesting videos. We saw the radios that the WRNS(Women's Royal Naval Service) a.k.a. Wrens used to intercept German Enigma messages and the motorcycles the men used to deliver the codes to the different code breakers in their huts.
We saw the famous Enigma Machine and took a walking tour. We also saw a working Turing Bombe Machine. It was so loud!!! It was so amazing to se it actually work, all the wires and rotors, It was massive.
Alan Turing was amazing, he inspired the computer and was a crossword genius. And seeing all his work was fabulous experience.
After the park, We went home and relaxed. Seeing Alex, Toby, Ana and Emma was so fun and to do fun activities with them was the best. I really enjoyed seeing them.
The next morning, Alex and Emma left for school and we said our goodbyes. After they left, Toby drove my mum and I to my mums friend's house. We spent two nights there.
Going back to England was really nice and I hope to go back soon
