 Yesterday we went to West Point Military Academy.  We took a tour of the complex and we got  to see the chapel and Washington Hall.  We learned how a very successful General Benedict Arnold was giving the other side info about what Americans were doing.  He was one of the most famous traitors in American history.


 The next day we went to the Mystic Aquarium and saw some beluga whales.  They kind of look  like white dolphins but cooler and weigh one ton.  We also saw lots of fish in the indoor part, like piranhas and eels.  At the end I got to pet a shark!



On the same day we got to Mystic Seaport at latitude 41n, longitude 71W.  We saw how sailors used stars to guide themselves and how lighthouses were vital back then.  Also we got to go on a real whaling ship named Charles W.  Morgan.


Today we were going to get out of our campsite then SCCCRRRERERER!!!  We got out and see the fire pit ring was on the wheel.  Just a little delay to the start of our day.
