Plimouth Plantation - Massachusettes

This was the first thing we did on vacation. We went a day earlier and did this just me, Shane and the boys. I have to say the boys say it was their favorite part(except maybe the pool). This plantation was two parts. This pre - revolutionary war. One half of the plantations was how the Native Americans lived, the other half was how the English lived. The Native Americans that you see in the pictures are from the original tribes that inhabited the area, not actors.


It was really fun and interesting to talk to the people.
















The boys thought this cow was funny.













We could hardly keep up with Tyler. He was a busy boy!






The English were building a house and Tyler decided to help.

One very intersting thing. Here are their crops planted. In the middle of this they would put "monkey bars". The children playing in the center would keep birds and other little thiefs out of the crops.































































































I know I am not writing alot, but let's face it, everybody just wants to see the pictures!
