DC

Today we had a tour of the capitol building and had a great guide who also got us into the House of Representatives to see! We went to the Native American Smithsonian and then saw the National Cathedral. The kids then got to go souvenir shopping and then we had a photo op at the White House! Baltimore played the Detroit Tigers tonight at Camden Yards and won! Now everyone is bed ready for a long day tomorrow as we make our way to Williamsburg... where I won't have internet connection so this is probably the last post until after I get home, when I will add more photos!

Washington DC

We were in DC today and saw the American History Smithsonian as well as the Holocaust Museum and the Newseum. Information overload! Then we did a very loooooooong walking tour of many memorials (Jefferson, FDR, Lincoln, Vietnam, Korean and WWII), then dinner at the ESPN Zone and BED!

Gettysburg

Amazing feat! Isaac saved another students life when he performed the heimlich menuver on a student who was choking on a meatball. The meatball finally flew out of the other student's mouth and he was then able to breathe!

The kids did a bus ride tour of all the battle fields. Here are a few pictures of them as they learned how the soldiers lined up and fired!

Lancaster Geo Caching

We got out and had to search for a mini micro cache in a covered bridge in Lancaster, just down the street from the Amish Farm House that we visited where the students learned about the Amish way of life. There was also another cache next to the Target too! The kids are HOOKED!

Geo Caching

Mr. Young, Ms. Kabza, Duc and I all found a few geocaches today in NYC while the kids were shopping on 5th Ave. Here are a few pictures of the ones we found.

This is the one we found off of 52nd Street. The security guard caught us and helped us out a little by telling us if we were hot or cold since we had to get back to the bus! He was great!


This one we found by a piece of the Berlin Wall (below) and also had a security guard looking at us funny so we showed him what it was all about!

NYC Photos!

Pool time in Lancaster, PA. Crazy kids!

Times Square Photos

Internet wasn't working well last night so I couldn't post the Times Square photos, I am trying now! Going to dinner, will do more later! The kids just went swimming and I have some great cannon ball shots.

Pictures

Here are a few pictures from yesterday too!

Boston!

Today was a long day! We started out in the Boston Commons (by the Cheer's location) and then headed up to a few burial grounds, saw Old South Meeting House and then on to the Boston Massacre site. We had lunch at Quincy Market then headed to Paul Revere's House and then to Old North Church where we got to see the steeple where the bells are rung (same bells Paul Revere rang!) and the crypt where many men have buried.



We headed back to Quincy Market for dinner then had the BEST TIME at Blue Man group.

Photos!

We didn't have internet access in Washington D.C. and in Williamsburg so I wasn't able to update the blog.

DC was great, the kids got to see the monuments and they loved the Newseum, which was the first group of kids who go to see it.

Williamsburg brought our first really hot and humid days. We were even under a tornado watch on Sat. before Busch Gardens! Good thing that never materialized!

I wanted to post some pictures for everyone to see.
