It’s really hot in Madrid at the moment the temperature is 37 degrees today. To avoid the heat we went to the armoury at 10:30 (we weren’t allowed to take our own photos so we got this one off the internet)

Did you know in Spain kids who were 6 had armour to start training (sounds tough for them!)
I liked the weapons that they had. These are some of the weapons that I thought were most deadly:
- Mace
- Rapier
- Longsword
- Flamberge blade
- Lance
To protect the horse while going into battle they also used flexible horse armour.
Now we are off to our rooftop pool!


Well, I did not know that training started at the age of six! Thank you for this piece of information.I expect it was nice and cool in the armoury…..a good thing as it was so hot outside.You certainly saw lots of deadly weapons.Are some of these used in your computer games or by your Lego characters?

The roof top pool looks great I bet you could see all of Madrid , a nice swim to finish the day off , perfect x
