The Rules of the Game Travel around Hertfordshire, and collect special photos on your journey... <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Letchworth-3Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> You've just arrived by train and hear that there's lots to explore and collect at the muesum. <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Letchworth-22Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> [[How will you get there?|Transport Choice]]

After leaving the station, You arrive at a bench. <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Letchworth-6%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> You think you are supposed to meet a friend here. Lots of time though, and you really want to get to where you're going. <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Letchworth-5%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> There's some walking signs, a bike point and a bus stop. How will you get there? [[A long walk|Walk]] [[Hop on a bus|Bus]] [[Zip over on a bike|Bike]]

Time to use those legs! The sign gives two options. <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/walk.webp" width="100%" /> We can go left, and take the long way - or, we can go straight there. [[The Long Way]] [[Straight There|Muesum Front Door]]

Ding Ding! You hopped on the bus, and rush for a seat. <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Leyland_National_Greenway_nearside.jpg" width="100%" /> Over the Magic Roundabout, and It passed through the Town Centre. What sights! The hustle and bustle abound. Maybe we can go there later? <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Letchworth-17%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> But it's too fast to take a picture... ... but no matter, as soon as you got on, you're hustled off. DING DING, last stop! The Museum. [[Step off the bus|Muesum Front Door]]

You've arrived at the Muesum's Front Door. There's loads of things on today. <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Letchworth-11%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> [[Step Inside|Inside Muesum]]

You follow the footsteps in side... <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Footsteps%20echoeing%20dance%20hall%20at%20Royston%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> The pink pig leads you towards the tours... <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/RoystonPig%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> Wow, there's loads in here. You spot the signs for the exhibits. Which one would you like to see? [[The Installation Tour]] [[The Behind the Scenes Tour]] [[The Oral Histories]] [[The Dance Tour]] Or maybe if you're done, you can leave through the back door.... <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Letchworth-27%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> [[Leave the Museum|Back Door]]

Leaving the Muesum, you spot a bus stop. You think if it's time to get back home. It's a nice day though, a trip through the park, maybe nip into town? Or is it late? Time to get the bus? Where too next? [[Walk to town through the park]] [[Bus back to the station]] [[Bike into town]]

You timed that so well - the bus is already here! <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Leyland_National_Greenway_nearside.jpg" width="100%" /> It's busy, you squeeze on, bound for the station. Without even blinking.... DING DING. Oh... we're already here. [[Enter the station]]

You zip through on your bike, weaving towards the magic roundround, under the underpass, zipping past a beautful mural. May as well stop and take a picture? <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/stevenagemural.jpg" width="100%" /> You hop back on, and it's not before long you drop off the bike and set foot into town [[Onwards into the town center|Into Town]]

You step into the cold station, but turning around, you immediately see Nala the cat! <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/nala.png" width="100%" /> She guards the ticket barriers, and is well paid in scratches and treats for her work. Scratching her, she purss. But when you stop, she meows at you. Like she's reminding you of something. What did you miss? You could go back and find out - there's lots of trains today. [[Back out of the station|Transport Choice]] Or maybe it's the end of the day. Time to go home [[Get on the next train|Ending]]

You give Nala one more stroke. She meows to wish you well. And in a moment, the next train is already there. Like it was waiting just for you. Ready to wisk you home. You open your camera and scroll through. What moments we've seen today. <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/stevenagemural.jpg" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/nala.png" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Watford%20Rengiz%201%20-%20Photo%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Watford%20Annette%201%20-%20Photo%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Stickman%20dancers%20at%20Royston%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Footsteps%20echoeing%20dance%20hall%20at%20Royston%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/RoystonPig%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Letchworth-38%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> [[To the last page |Thank You]]

Thanks for joing us on your Journey around Hertfordshire with BEEE Creative and the Perform Transform project. <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Beee-creative-logo-2021-Green-Heritage-RGB.jpg" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/TNLHF_English_Acknowledgement_Stamp_Colour_PNG.png" width="100%" /> [[One more Trip?|Intro]]

<img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/magicroundabout.png" width="100%" /> You zip through on your bike, weaving towards the magic roundround, under the underpass, zipping past a beautful mural. You think you may as well stop and take a picture later? You hop back on, and it's not before long you're already at the muesum. [[Drop off your bike and head in|Muesum Front Door]]

You arrive at the Magic Roundabout! <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/magicroundabout.png" width="100%" /> This place is confusing... but at least we aren't driving. There's two ways past this... [[Over the Crossing]] or [[Through the Underpass]]

Green Man! You zip over the crossing, and a lovely park is laid out before you, resplendant in the sun. [[Into the Park]]

You nip into the underpass - it's quicker than waiting... <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/stevenagemural.jpg " /> ... and you're rewarded! A beautiful Mural - let's take a picture of that. Onwards we go, and we emerge next to the park [[Into the Park]]

What a lovely day... perfect for some photos! <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Watford%20Fiona%201%20-%20Photo%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Watford%20Jan%201%20-%20Photo%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Watford%20Rengiz%201%20-%20Photo%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Watford%20Sue%201%20-%20Photo%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Watford%20Zhan%201%20-%20Photo%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Watford%20Audrey%201%20-%20Photo%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Letchworth-14%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Letchworth-31%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Letchworth-32%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Letchworth-40%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> And as you reach the end you see the muesum [[Approach the door|Muesum Front Door]]

As you head back through, you spot something... A community centre, abuzz with activity and arts. What are they making? You nip in and take some photos. How exiciting. You wonder what that was about... <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Stevenage%20Museum-37%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Stevenage%20Museum-40%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Stevenage%20Museum-46%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Stevenage%20Museum-47%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Stevenage%20Museum-48%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Stickman%20dancers%20at%20Royston%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> But no time to ponder. Time to head off. [[Onwards!|Out the Park]]

As you leave the community centre and head back into park, you make some new friends and take their photos. <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Watford%20Annette%201%20-%20Photo%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Letchworth-39%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> [[Next stop, the town center|Into Town]]

You arrive in the Town Centre. It's buzzing - there's so much happening! So many nice things to take photos of... <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Letchworth-7%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Letchworth-38%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Letchworth-23%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Letchworth-26%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Letchworth-36%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> ... and some not so nice things, but that's a part of living in a town you guess. <img src="https://rmv-public.s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/pt/Letchworth-49%20Large.jpeg" width="100%" /> You quickly dive into the shop to pick up something for tea. Maybe it's time to go home? [[Head for the Station|Enter the station]]
