What surprised me at Plimoth was that the people who were acting like Pilgrims did a really good job. Like when people asked them questions they could answer them sharply.
They even spoke how the Pilgrims spoke.

The other thing that surprised me was the food. The 6th graders in The Dalton School said that the food was horrible but the children I was sitting with loved it. We had turkey pottage, boiled carrots, butter and wheat bread, pear pie, cheese and apple cider and water. The 6th graders said that the turkey pottage was not good at all but the children I was sitting with had 2 gigantic bowls of it.

Our class went to the village in Plimoth and we went on a replica of the Mayflower. The village was really cool. I learned so much from it and it was amazing how the Pilgrims lived back in the 1600’s.

The replica of the Mayflower was amazing. What I like the most about the Mayflower 2 is that when you go on it you feel like you are a Pilgrim and you are on the actual Mayflower.

While we were at Plimoth we did some activities. We learned how to write with an ink pen, we saw what Pilgrims would wear in the 1600’s and we played games that the children would of played in the 1600’s.

At the colonial dinner we learned Pilgrim tale manners, it was really fun. I could even tell you some of them.

1. Put your napkin on your plate with your fork, spoon and knife on it.
2. Serve the grown-ups before you eat and make shore he or she is satisfied.
3. If you are a male put your napkin on your shoulder and if you are a women you should put your napkin on your lap.
4. Do not rock in your chair because the people around you will think you are going to give a past of wind. A past of wind means that you are going to fart or pass gas.

Do you feel like you want to go to Plimoth now? If you do it is located in Boston and if you have a project on Pilgrims you need to go there. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed what I wrote about Plimoth.
