We enjoyed our trip to Maeshowe, Skara Brae and the Ring of Brodgar.  At the Ring of Brodgar we met up with the Historic Scotland Ranger and she played some games with us.

We ran around the Ring of Brodgar.

We counted all the stones at the Ring Of Brodgar.

We got to look around the model house at Skara Brae.

When we were in the model house at Skara Brae we thought about the difference between our houses now and a Skara Brae house.  We thought the houses at Skara Brae were much darker, smaller and quieter than our houses today.

We sat around the fire place in the model house.  We put sheep skin and deer skin rugs on the ground to sit on.
