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.
