We are excited about seeing Capitol Hill because it's near the White House. And we are also looking forward to visiting the Library of Congress.

05-20-11 Today, we flew from San Diego to Boston with a stop in St. Louis. Even though our flight got delayed in St. Louis, we had plenty to do with our friends. On the plane we did everything from playing with clay and making dinosaurs, or watching movies, to sleeping for long periods of time. We arrived in Boston and the bus took us to Quincy Market Place for dinner. Then we stopped by Mike's Pastry for some lobster tails and cannolis. We are at the hotel and we are ready to take on the day tomorrow. ~Room NEMO

05-21-11 Our first full day in Boston was full of adventure and learning (even though the bus was enough of an adventure in itself). We started our day downstairs where we ate breakfast. Then we quickly got our stuff together and boarded the bus to head off to Plymouth Plantation. Plymouth Plantation was very very interesting and fun because it really felt like we in the 17th century. We visited the Wampanoag village and the pilgrim village where we saw cows and fires, and we explored the houses which they lived in. From Plymouth Plantation we returned to Quincy Marketplace for lunch. And then we set off to Harvard University and learned about the statue of three lies. We //quickly// went to the gift shop and traveled over to Lexington and Concord and stood on the actual battlefield.

Hard Rock Café was our next destination for dinner with little time to spare for some more exploration in Quincy Marketplace. Our bus took us back to the hotel where we went swimming. And that is how we ended our day :) ~Room NEMO

5-22-11 Our morning started out with breakfast of course. We checked out of the Hotel in Boston. We got out stuff and went to Boston's Freedom Trail. We took a walking tour take took us the Boston Massacre site and the Old North Church. In the afternoon, we depart for New York!!! It was about a 4 hour drive. Delaney slept for most of it :). We checked into out hotel. We soon headed out to Time Square and shopped for awhile before dinner. We were suppose to go up to the 70th floor of the GE Building but we decided to do it the next morning since it was cloudy. New York was beautiful at night time. ~Room NEMO

5-23-11 We walk to breakfast which was the same place as dinner. After breakfast we got to see New York from the 70th floor of the GE Building. It was chilly that morning. Today is an all-day walking and subway tour of Manhattan. We stopped for lunch and returned to Time Square to shop some more. We returned to the hotel and got ready to see the performance of Phantom of the Opera. We went to get dinner before the show. Peter, Carl, and Phat made a drink with 10 different food or liquid inside and some peoplle ended up tasting it. After dinner, we walked to see the peformance. It was amazing. We got to eat at a pizza place after. It was raining at that time. Luckily the rain stopped when we left to go back to the hotel. ~Room NEMO

Tuesday may 24, 2011 Today we had to get ready to leave for Gettsburg. Before leaving we saw the statue of liberty and ground zero. After this we were headed on a 5 hour trip to Pennsylvania. We went and visited the battle field of Gettysburg Battle. We stopped at a a Subway/McDonalds/Gift shop to get lunch at a gasoline. Here we were for about 40 minutes. After all of our visiting and tour we went to the hotel, we got to go to the pool, it was super fun experience.

Wednesday may 25, 2011 Today we went white water rafting in the patomic river; it was a really hot and it took about an hour to get there. The first thing we did when we arrived, was gear up; we got our helmets, life vests, and oars, then we took a bus to the river site. Our day was very exhausting, but it was also very fun. Around 12 O' clock we stoped for lunch and then continued on our 7 1/2 mile rafting trip. Finishing our river journey was an achivemnet that most of us where very proud of. After this we all rode to mt vernon to see geogre washington's home. this basically concluded our day.
