Today was absolutely fantastic. We went to Vindalandia and hiked to Hadrian’s Wall, an ancient guard against invading tribes as well as a look out post in war. In fact, this wall was built on the line where Roman soldiers retreated from battle against Scotland (Peter Salway, Roman Britain, 43).

That day we also went to Corbridge, and visited ancient Roman archaeological ruins. One of the most interesting parts to me was to see areas that were Roman family homes and imagining the life that went on there.
