Hey everyone,
I had better start from the beggining.
Newport News, VA: I flew into Norfolk, VA at around 7:45 and had a 15 minute drive in our gray hyundai into Newport News where we met up with Jimmy II, Jimmy III, and Shannon. We ate an AMAZING dinner, thank you Shannon, and then Jimmy III showed us around the house. After the tour, we went upstairs to Jimmy's room and just talked for a while. OH I ALMOST FORGOT ISAAC AND JIMMY III PLAYED ENDLESS HOCKEY!!!!!!!!!
crazy. then at around 1:30 , we went to bed. The next morning, we ate pop tarts and cinnamon toast crunch ( I really don't know how Shannon got away with feeding us that in front of my mother) and then the cousins fixed up a cooler full of food for us while we were on the road. Then, five and a half hours later, we were in Philly.
Philadelphia, PA: In Philly, we have MUCH to talk about. First, we checked into the hotel, which was the Hyatt. it was nice, then we went to Deno's for Philly Cheese Steak. it was pretty good. Then we came home and went to bed. In the morning, in the morning, we went to the US ment. we saw AMISH PEOPLE there. While we were there, we learned how to make money, but we can NOT make it ourselves. TOO MUCH MACHINERY!!!! SOO, after that we went to the Philadelphia Penitentary. Since 1822, it held many dangerous criminals. It closed in 1971 though. The lady at the prison gave us headphones and little calculator thingies that would show us around, and it was COOL!!!!! We saw all the different cell blocks, and this one dude got a luxury cell with a radio and silk bedsheets and stuff like that. he called it 'very comfortable'
after our tour, we were free to roam around the building, and we saw death row, and the HOLE. scary. then we went home and went to New York City.
New York City, NY: Soo, yesterday I got here to new york city and we went to the best store ever... THE M N'M store!!!!!!!!! DELICOUS it even smelled like chocolate.
I got a quarter pound of MandMs and Isaac got a pound. then we walked down Broadway to the theater to go to the lion king play. IT WAS AMAZING!!!!!!!! and there was 11 year old girl and boy playing young simba and young nala. :) I loved it. Then we went to a pizza place for dinner at 10:30 at night. After that, we came home, watched some TV and went to bed. This morning, Isaac and I had a pillow fight on floor 43, and woke up mom and dad. Then Mom went to work out, and dad is watching tv, Isaac is in the shower, and little old me is blogging.
Not enough pics yet. pics on next blog.

A happy Mady in New York City

Hi Mady,
I really like your detailed entries because my parents were thinking of taking Julia and I around the U.S. and watching all of this boring stuff, but you make it sound interesting.
Thanks!
