A TRIP TO THE EDEN PROJECT Last Fri

A TRIP TO THE EDEN PROJECT

Last Friday, our class traveled in the school but to visit the Eden project in Cornwall. It was a long ride to get there so we had to be at school an hour earlier, at eight o’clock. We brought our breakfast to eat on the bus.
When we arrived at the Eden Project, we could tell it was a big attraction by the size of the car parks, which were carefully laid out and named after fruits-we were in Plum Car Park. As we walked down, we could see the Eden project buildings-two enormous plastic domes, built in a dip in the ground
Mrs. Jeffries told us they were called “biomes” and the dip used to be a clay pit, where men had dug out the clay to use for making pots we spent our morning going round the biomes, looking at the plants. One is kept very warm inside and filed with tropical plants like rubber trees, bamboo spices, coconuts, and pineapples. There are also display of buildings and gardens from tropical courtiers. The other biome is not so warm and among the plants there are oranges, lemons, grapes, and olives.
We had our lunch in the exhibition center, where we watched a video about “The Making of Eden”. The Eden Project was built to show how men and plants depend upon each other and it cost millions of pounds to build. Next we had a talk about the plants. A lady explained how you get cocoa beans and cocoa milk from an ad and use them to make chocolate.
We were allowed to look in the shop and spent two pounds. I bought some stickers and a postcard of a man building the biomes. Finally, it time for the long ride home. We were back by half past three, just in time for the hell.
