I have so much homework its sickening. And I can't draw maps.
We had an awsome field trip in Boston yesterday with Mr. DeSorgher. We went to the first city hall and heard this guy talk about it, and to the first Anglican Church and then to this Puritan Church and heard this lady talk about how it was a meeting house for the people as well, and how the British took it over in the time of the Intolerable Acts and how they turned it into a stable, then it was made back into a Church after they lost and went back to England. We went to a presentation on the Battle of Bunker hill, and then to Breed's hill where this battle actually took place. We also saw the gravesites of John Hancock, Samuel Adams, James Otis, John Winthrop, Paul Revere and some other cool guys. De Sorgher was a great tour guide - it was funny, in one of the graveyards, we collectd a couple of random people who followed our class around to listen to him speak. It was amusing...
I had a yummy lunch in Quincy Market - this Indian food stand, The Bombay Club (they also have a resturant in Cambridge, one of my favorites!)Homade cheese in really spicy curry spinich sauce over rice. Amazing!
But now I have to draw a map... I am terrible at drawing...this will take me forever... *sigh*
GOD BLESS AMERICA
