Mickey and Hannah Declare War in Stratford - Upon - Avon, by Hannah and Mickey

(Yes, we did declare war, against our dad. Actually, he declared war, he just didn't know it.)

Stratford-Upon-Avon was SO COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It deserves all those exclamation points!!!!!!!! In fact, we'll end all the sentences with at least one exclamation point!

We went to where Shakespeare was born (that's where we declared war!)! And where he lived with Anne for fifteen years! (I would hate that! Imagine how awkward!) We also went to Anne's cottage! It was a very long walk, but had a pretty garden! We went to the garden at (the ruins of) New Place, where there were some very weird statues! Of Shakespeare plays! But none were Romeo and Juliet! Yay!

Somehow someone bought a little finger puppet/magnet of Shakespeare, meaning Hannah has to get another large slab of pineapple and eat it with Beethoven, Lincoln and Shakespeare on her fingers, and you have no idea how scary that truly is! (Mickey: Hannah's afraid of one of our greatest presidents!)
Newsies! (Mickey's an idiot...)

Anyway, Stratford was awesome! Hannah got cuter fingerpuppets than the Shakespeare one! Of the characters from Macbeth (Macbeth, Lady Macbeth, Witch, Banquo and Macduff!) and Midsummer Night's Dream (Pyramus, Thisbe, Wall, Lion, and Moonshine!)! We haven't opened them so that they don't get lost on the flight home, but once we're there...! It will be a madhouse I say! A madhouse!

(Oh, we tried to put Mickey in the insane asylum in York, but she wouldn't let us after the ghost walk! I guess our house will turn into one after the puppets are opened!)

(Also, don't worry, Hannah will not be eating pineapple while holding these finger puppets!)














SHAKESPEARE!!!!
