Alastair's Recap

My top three stops on the trip were New York, NY. I liked NY because I got to go a play on Broadway and to a Yankees game. I liked New York because of the subways and the history and the places.

I also liked Montpelier, VT because I got to see my cousins. I also liked it because I got to see the Cabot factory and the Ben & Jerry's factory. I got to try their ice cream. I also got to go to a waterfall and swim in the river. The water was cold.

My last out of the top three is DC. We got to see all of the memorials and monuments. My favorite three memorials were FDR, Lincoln, and Korean War. We also went to 2 Smithsonian museums. In DC I also got to see my Nana and Papa and my Nana's sister. In DC I also was to Ford's Theater, where Lincoln was assassinated.

My favorite church was Fellowship Church. It was a really fun giant church. At the church I had to go to Sunday school. At Sunday school I got to compete against the 4th and 5th grade group. My class lost but we still got popsicles. I also watched videos.

In conclusion, I can't believe the summer. I enjoyed seeing friends and family along the way. It made the trip very rememberfull. It's amazing how much you can learn by visiting where everything happened, from the Shot Heard Round the World, to where Lincoln gave the Gettysburg Address, to where Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat on the bus. We have seen it all. Not only did we see it all, but we did it all, from Cedar Point, to Disneyworld, to Hershey Park. From driving all day to seeing places the trip was crazy fun.
