a couple of new LOs

description: We spent the morning of Sarah's first fourth of July in Yorktown, Virginia. We watched the parade in the shade of a tree near the veterans band. The Yorktown Fifes and Drums corp was the first parade entrant to go by followed by various veterans and active duty military groups, classic cars, and even Uncle Sam dressed in desert fatigues. Sarah waved to the parade members as they went by.

My LO of the picture of Robin and I together at the Bronx Zoo. It was so cool to be able to meet her in person.

Journaling: July 8th and 9th were days filled with one activity after another. After leaving the hotel on Saturday, we first stopped at Washington’s Crossing to see where General Washington crossed the Delware river to surprise the Hessians in Trenton. Then, we drove into Philadelphia to go to the Franklin Institute. Bryce rode the sky bike, we learned all about how cartoons are made in their special exhibit, and we walked through the giant heart following the path of blood through the heart and lungs. Brenna thought that was especially cool. She only had one major breakdown that day, which was pretty good for her. After that we stopped at Valley Forge to see where the Continental Army camped & Washington’s headquarters.
On Sunday we started the day at Hershey Park’s Chocolate World to learn how they make their chocolate and sample it. Then we drove to Harrisburgh and learned about and made our own kites. We finished that day with a drive to Pittsburgh.
