Hello I am back and I am here to tell you about my fabulous trip to my nan’s in Winsford, Cheshire.

I was there from Monday the 19th and I returned today. Here is what I did.

Tuesday:

On Tuesday we went to the secret bunker. It was a hidden underground base built for people from parliment to hide from the radiation from bombs in the cold war. Now it is used for tourism. Here are some of the photos I took.
