PLIMOTH PLANTATION AFTER WE WERE THERE
I thought that Plimoth Plantation was really fun because you got to meet Pilgrims.
I was surprised that the people that played the Pilgrims cooked their own food. They even had their own real guns. I was very surprised how little the Mayflower was. It looked like nobody would be able to move.
I expected that there would be small wooden houses, and they look as I expected. They had little chimneys and little roofs. The roofs were made out of thatch.
In the evening we were split up into different groups and did these fun activities. The first one we did was to go into two different Pilgrim houses and study what was in them. After, we got to write with quills and we wrote our names. It was hard. Then we got to dress up into Pilgrim costumes but only three of us got to dress up. It was not me. Two boys and one girl got to dress costumes. It was really funny.
Last but not least we went to a stage and got to play with Pilgrim toys. There were: horses on sticks (not real), a doll, this bowling like game etc.
We also hade a Colonial dinner. We had turkey pottage, carrots, pear pie, and apple cider. It was good.
We had a really fun trip.
