We Leave Today!

So in just over 12 hours we'll all be on a red eye flight from Portland to Boston via NYC's Kennedy airport. We begin our trip tonight, meeting at the airport at 9:00 pm and hit the ground running in Boston, our first three days are LOADED with fun. Tomorrow night we'll be sitting along the third baseline watching the Red Sox defeat the Kansas City Royals (after a long day at Plimoth Plantation and the Mayflower II). Saturday will begin at Lexington/Concord to follow Paul Revere's famous Mid-night Ride, then into Downtown Boston to follow along the Freedom Trail stopping at various sites like the Old South Meeting House, Fanieul Hall, Paul Revere's House and the Old North Church. We will have a terrific family style Italian dinner at La Familigia Gorgio's and then straight off to Blue Man Group!

On Sunday morning we'll move onto the bus for a bit of a drive (time to catch up in study books and on sleep!!!) to NYC! We will see the Lion King on Broadway and then have dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe in Times Square. After dinner we'll walk around Times Square for a while, a couple of students will geo cache while others will check out some stores. Once the sun sets we will have our picture taken with all the bright lights and then head to our hotel.

I'll catch you up on the rest of the trip as we go along. Please leave us comments, the kids love to hear them, it's sort of like Mail Call at Outdoor School. I will ask some kids to come blog away when we have Internet service as well. Pictures will be posted whenever possible.
