 The history of transportation is quite extensive. Through our analysis of its history, we were able to determine what made it iconic today. Researching the technology that both the tube and double decker bus incorporated allowed us to see why they are both very efficient and London has one of the best public transportation systems in the world. The future of the tube and bus may shift towards the use of automation. This automation can help in making the system more efficient than it already is.

-For my projects, I hope to better learn the history of London through the history of photography (iconic images) and transportation systems. I also hope to learn more about the famous writers that came out of London. I have taken two writing classes thus far and am currently enrolled in one. I hope to appreciate London more deeply when I am finished. Any tourist can appreciate beautiful scenery and iconic landmarks, but it takes a special type of person to appreciate the city's history.
+For my projects, I hope to better learn the history of London through the history advertising and transportation systems. I also hope to create enjoyable writing pieces about the citizens of London. For my humanities credits, I have received transfer credit for WR1010 and WR 1020. I have also taken WR 2010 at WPI. After I completed my milestones, I appreciated London more. Any tourist can appreciate the beautiful scenery and iconic landmarks, but it takes a special type of experience, like this one, to help me appreciate the city's history and people.

 ==Activity #20: Windsor Castle==
-[[Windsor Castle]] is one of my favorite palaces. This was my second time coming back to this castle and I appreciated it a lot more. I am not sure if it is because I am older, or if because we came in June instead of February. Either way I still really liked it. The Doll house was very cool. I am a big fan of creating things by hand and woodworking so I was very intrigued. To see that much attention and detail be put into something so simple blew my mine. The working electricity and plumbing put the cherry on top. The state apartments were very similar to other palaces I have been to. They were very similar to Hampton Court Palace, and the Palace in Madrid. It was still very cool to see. I can relate this to my milestone because today at the castle I was people watching and got ideas for my stories.

 '''Objective:''' Find demographics about the average Londoner, find people that fit that description, and do a creative writing piece about their backstory.

+After researching demographic information, I found people whose appearances fit the largest category from the demographic section. I would use these people as characters in my fictional stories about their life. The census revealed that London is a very diverse city. I used different writing styles, literary devices, and voices, to make each character distinct. I also used demographic information to make the stories more true to life.

-Below the objective statement, Insert a one or two paragraph summary of your findings from having reached this milestone. Edit the link below to link to your milestone page.
+The history behind the World War II posters is extraordinary. The people at that time had to endure things such as rationing, blackouts, and evacuations. The posters helped tell the citizens how to do these successfully and some explained why they were happening. Today's posters urge people to remain vigilant to help combat the War on Terror. These sets of posters had similarities in layout, wording, and message, but they also had some very strong differences. The future of advertising will show future societal problems and possibly be on new media.

 '''Getting Around London'''<br>
-'''Objective:''' Public transportation plays a huge role in the lives of everyday Londoners. It allows for fast and efficient travel across the city while helping to decrease pollution and traffic problems, though it hasn't always been this way. In this article, we will discuss the history of London's transportation systems, what made them successful, comparisons of methods of transportation, and predict where transportation is going in the future. Without effective means of transportation, the city would not be where it is today.
