Proof of how Mr. Toast wears out one of his owners. (Owen)- Bus ride home

Another entry way.

Of course the castle had a moot too!

The girls of the group.





This is the name of the Basilica.

It was gothic style. and you can tell by looking at the shapes of the windows or doorways. Like this window has a point to it.


Next we went to see the Basilica.

Chelsea and I had our own little table. I order chicken and fries. Which it came with a salad and dessert. The meal was very good.


We took a break from being a crusader and decided to eat.

It used to be open Eric said, until people would try to commit suicide and jump in it.

Once we actually got into the city, we came across a huge well/hole where they would get their water.


They had towers to keep watch for their safety.

Then if the crusaders got into the city, they had to fight hard to actually get into the castle. Eric said that they would set up tents to prevent pitch from getting on them and start digging to get a tunnel underneath the wall. Then they would get a way into the castle.

Here is a sneak peak of Mr. Toast with his owners Lindsay & Owen. (Mr. Toast is in Lindsay's hand)

As you look at the top of the rock structure, you can see holes, well this is where the knights/protectors of the city would shoot their arrows from toward the invaders. At some places they would dump "pitch" on the invaders. Pitch is like a sap, and it would be boiling hot!


Eric, our great teacher.


There is me and the door way.

Here we have an entrance that used to have huge doors that would be shut for safety. Then the crusaders would have to knock them down to get into the city. But as they were doing that, they would have to defend themselves from the flying arrows from above.

Up, up, & up.

Let the walk begin!

This is the way/side of the city we entered. Its so cool!


Me walking on the same bridge as the crusaders.

Here is the bridge that we will be walking on to get to the city, plus this is the same way the crusaders evaded the city of Carcassonne.

This is the city of Carcassonne, a view from the road. You can see that it has two forts built around it.
