History of the Vikings

The Viking ships were flat on the bottom so that they can go on shallow water. The Vikings were good sailors and they found North America. Their helmets didn't have horns on them in real life. They conquered England actually most of it but not all of it, part of Italy, parts of Spain France, turkey and there were even Russian Vikings.
What made them week at the end is that all the other Europeans started to have stronger armies, horse back riding and bigger ships. The Vikings came from Scandinavia, (modern Norway and Sweden and Finland). There was a Viking fort that was called A ring fort. It was a big circle and first it had a mote them it had a wall made out of dirt. Then it had a another wall and then inside it had 4 long houses or sometimes more and a path like a cross between them all.

My Viking shield

I like The Vikings. I found this ice shield in a field near my house and I like it a lot. Now it is my Viking shield. My dad and I found it together on our hike yesterday at the spl farm.

Stack the countries

I really like this game on my iPod touch. There is a fun game on it called stack the countries. I have passed all continents except Africa. I should finish Africa this week. Later I played this game where in the world and i knew almost every country in the world. It was fun. Here is also a photo of my dog and I. I love learning about the world and it's countries and people. I am also learning Spanish. It is a great language. More soon.

Castles

London  - 

I love the middle ages and knights and castles. Some of  my favorite toys are  knights and dragons. 

A while ago I read a Magic Tree house book where Jack and Annie go to castle and get captured and have to escape from the dungeon. 

 I have a castle by me called Crane's Castle that we like to explore. 

I've put pictures of some of my favorite castles here. Some day I want to go to Europe and visit them.

IAN - (my brother typing)
