We went on some really good trails and we took the dog with us. Her name is "Georgia."Then we took a road trip (that's what Dad calls it) to visit relatives and sight-see. We visited some cousins in North Carolina and Virginia. 
We got to see our Great Aunt Jane and learned how to shoot a rifle!

Washington Memorials, the Vietnam Memorial, and had a private tour of the White House (although President Obama was busy working so we didn't get to meet him.) One of our favorite things was visiting the Air and Space Museum. Very cool. It is one of the museums in the movie, "Night at the Museum 2."

This is the city were the United States began. We got to see the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall - where the "Declaration of Independence" was signed! 
Our Uncle Joe is a Park Ranger there. He explained to us some of the history in Philadelphia.
Then we went on to see our Grandma and JaJa in Buffalo, New York. We got to do all sorts of things with them
including seeing Niagara Falls in Canada,and going to Detroit, Michigan. We also got to eat good local foods like Pizza and Chicken Wings.

How was it visiting your grandparents in those different states? Mine are all here in Austin, TX...except a great grandmother in Korea that I have never met.
I've been here in Austin all summer. My cousin is staying with us for awhile...I make her play games with me and go swimming...it's fun to make her do stuff even when she doesn't want to. (She's 14)
Evan, Did you get a special packet when you got back to India?
Take care and enjoy your last few days of break...
Rion (and Lisa)
Yes! Thank you for all of the wonderful notes from the kids in first Grade. It was very fun reading them. You and you mom were very nice to do that for me!!!
I had fun at my grandparents. Audrey and I got to do a whole lot of fun things! We even went to a waterpark in Canada!
July 1 is our first day back to school after "summer break."
Rion & Lisa -
The special packet arrived in India while Evan was in the US, so I brought the envelope to him in the US. Wow - we wer all so surprised to see all the wonderful notes from friends! Thank you so much for organizing. We emailed a thank you note to Mrs Zarker since it was already your last day of school. She may not have read it in time to share with the class. We are so grateful for friends like you!!
