But, it talks about the invasion and the Bayeux Tapestry. It's a music video set to modern music, though I don't recognize the Justin Timberlake song.Dana Leedshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09387705697369311607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7679899986909069033.post-68847581410128577292012-04-18T23:58:37.400+12:002012-04-18T23:58:37.400+12:00Hi, Rachel. Thanks so much for leaving a comment o...Hi, Rachel. Thanks so much for leaving a comment on my post (and adding a link!). This mosaic is amazing! 25 years...wow! I know I wouldn't have the patience to do something like that. And, that reminds me of the cathedrals I've been reading about - can you imagine working on something that wouldn't even be completed in your lifetime??<br /><br />Thanks for the reminder that "the tapestry" is actually embroidery. Kind of strange that it is called a tapestry!<br /><br />I also found it interesting that there are scenes from Aesop's fables on the borders of the tapestry. That's neat that your CD has some on it. And, I have a copy of Our Island Story and went to it last night to find the chapters I should read about this time in history. <br /><br />I also downloaded a free book on my Kindle (I think it's free because I'm an Amazon Prime member)by G.A. Henty called "Wulf the Saxon: A Story of the Norman Conquest." I just started it last night and didn't get very far so I'm not sure how well I'll like it yet.<br /><br />I'm always amazed at how much there is to learn and how little I know! - DanaDana Leedshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09387705697369311607noreply@blogger.com
