Vacation Day 1


My vacation has caused me to start blogging. So I am kicking off my official first blog now. The last post does not count. 

On Monday July 21st, My dad and I got on a plane at 8:00 am to Philadelphia, PA. We arrived around 10:45 am in Phily. We got our luggage  and the picked up our car at the rental place. Then we were off to Valley Forge. Yea, we did not see much of Philadelphia but we are coming back on Saturday to do that. One thing we really noticed was all hills PA has, (we don't have hills in Florida). The drive to Valley Forge was just amazing.  For those of you who don't know the significance of Valley Forge here is a link: Valley Forge. We almost missed the exit to this place, forgot that we are not familiar with this area. 
First thing we did, was watch a fifteen minute movie to know what we were about to  see. We got into are car drove through Valley Forge to each site that we wanted to see.  One of the coolest thing we saw was George Washington headquarters. The people there were able to preserve the house with some minor changes to the roof. 

  The last thing we saw in Valley Forge was the Inner Defense. A lot of cannons!!! On the way there we saw 2 deers just chillen so we took a pic of them too.
            
Anyways, after that we headed to Lancaster where are hotel was. We kinda got lost a little but finally  found it. Now, check out these video podcast for the rest of the day.
