England

We began our trip in England. We found out about the four countries that make up the United Kingdom: England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. We looked at pictures of major tourist attractions in England, including some in Bristol (SS Great Britain, Bristol Zoo and Clifton Suspension Bridge) and in London (Houses of Parliament, London Eye and Tower Bridge).
