That morning I really had to wake up early she got me out of bed at six o'clock her time! So we ate a big breakfast and began preparing for the 7 hour long drive to Sheffield. We scrambled into the car and pulled out of the driveway! I love driving around in the rural parts of England because when you look out the window all you see is pure, lush, beautiful forests with streams and meadows. For a while Sarah and I kinda caught up you could say because we hadn't seen each other since The Tea Fire when she and her boyfriend Greg came to stay with my grandparents. We talked for a while then she pulled over and we stopped at a pie factory and I ordered a slice of bacon and eggs pie at first I was kinda scared to try it but, after I took one bight I just couldn't stop! When the waitress came by to pick up my licked clean plate she commented on my big appetite, When we got home I looked up online the name of the shop and found the recipe! We paid and headed back to the car... A few hours passed and I was sick of looking at the forests I felt like a little carrot on a platter of broccoli! Finally a few hours later Sarah put on her blinker finally we were turning off!!! So we turned then a few blocks later we pulled over next to a big blue victorian style house (this is the house my granny was born in) I didn't want to go in because the current owners were home. Now it was time to find the steel factory! We drove around for a few minutes and the car was silent because I was just sitting there looking at all the big houses with the amazingly lush gardens! The next time we stopped it was at the steps of a huge building! I got out of the car and we walked in side by side. Right as we stepped through the door a man came over and asked if he could help us Sarah told him why we were there and he directed us to a large room filled with computers and paper and shouting men! He led us through the bustle and we stopped at the very end of the room where a man greeted us and shook my hand I introduced my self and then he showed us around his factory! Sadly we couldn't stay for long because of the 7 hour ride home so we said our good bie's, got back into the car and drove away. When we got home I was so tired I just stumbled into my room got into bed and fell asleep.
