Plymouth (Henry)
Plymouth was extremely fun. All the actors did a fantastic job reinacting their role and answering questions. After going outside the made up village of Plymouth, we visited the native americans which was reaaly cool to see how they lived. Then, we actually got to see the actual Plymouth rock. Very cool.

This settler at Plimouth Plantation demonstrates early metalworking. Lots of work went into making just one large nail spike. He was also reworking a hinge. Amazing to think about the amount of labor involved in building a settlement from raw materials. -G

Boston (Henry)
Boston and D.C. will probably be my favorate towns on the trip. Boston is fall of life, with its rich history, the old brick buildings, and the winding rivers. I will definitely miss this town, which is always full of life. All the wharfs were cool to see, but the best part was definitely the history. It was amazing to see all the historic sites, from Paul Revere's cemetery to where the revolutionary began, at Lexington and Concord.
