8 days to go!

Hello again, I don't have much to report today, although I did make a small change to the blog. Robyn pointed out that only blog members could post comments, so I fixed it so that anyone can post a comment.

If you have any questions about our trip, or just wanna say hi, then please feel free to do so. If you live in Toronto or New England, it would be especially cool to hear from you. We'll be visiting all 6 states in New England, so let us know where you live in case we're going to be visiting your town.

That's all for now, I'll holla at you tomorrow.

9 days to go!

Hello again, the plan is to post something every day until we leave. So today I thought I'd fill you in on some of the places we're going to be visiting.

My dad has made a detailed itinerary, cos he's, well, Dad. But I can't be bothered to go find it, so here are the highlights, that me and Robyn are most looking forward to:

Six Flags
Niagara Falls
Yale University
Mystic Aquarium
Mark Twain's House
Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream Factory

and of course, Denny's. Lumberjack Slam breakfast here I come.

Niagara Falls should be cool, me and Robyn have both been before on seperate occasions, but Robyn didn't get to go on Maid of the Mist cos the falls were frozen. Here are a couple of pics from last time I went:















So that's all for now, I'll post tomorrow with something interesting to share with you.

10 days to go!

Hi there, my name is Bethany, and I've made this blog to document my holiday to America. My parents, my best friend Robyn and I are travelling to Canada and touring New England for 3 weeks, and I wanted to keep in touch with everyone back home, including all the members of The Nettle Magazine, some of which aren't back home. In fact to some of you, New England may be home. In which case hi! I may be coming to your town!

Anyway, the plan is to add a blog entry every day if I can, and add as many pictures as possible. I don't know if I can add video, but at the very least I'll upload some footage on youtube.com so you can see all the crazy antics Robyn and I get up to.

So there you have it. We leave on April the 7th, and if I have time before then, I'll fill you in on some of the places we plan to visit. Right now I'm gonna familiarise myself with this site, so I can use it to the full when I go away.

Um, bye!
Bethany
