Yesterday we visited Bletchley Park — a beautiful old house with a lovely park and a very powerful history.
During World War II, many people worked there in secret. Alan Turing helped to break the German Enigma code, so the Allies could read important enemy messages. Many women also did amazing codebreaking work there.
It is very moving to think how their quiet work helped the Allies during the war, including D-Day in Normandy, one of the most important moments of World War II.
We were also really touched by the room about the hero pigeons, who carried important messages during the war.
I would really recommend visiting Bletchley Park, especially if you have watched The Imitation Game. And a very special moment for us — Misha got a certificate for writing his name in Morse code!
