Abby was woken up by her brother because her family was going to a trip in Gettysburg. Her family got dressed and then her mom packed up the car with snacks and Abby drove with her mom to her aunt’s house and got her mom’s dad, Abby kept complaining because she didn’t want to go. She wanted to stay home and play on her computer.
Abby was mad and she was reading a book called, “The Fault In Our Stars.” She was sitting in the car with her sister, her brother, and her cousin and her mom. Her mom drove for an hour and stopped and said. “Do you guys want to go inside and look around the museum? WE are not buying anything ok?” Abby’s family went into the museum and they walked around looked at diffrent things.
Abby’s family had finished looking at the museum. They then walked outside and saw a statue of Abraham Lincoln. The Abraham Lincoln statue that was there was as old as the museum. (It was pretty old.) Abby’s family walked back to their car and everyone piled into the full car. The car was as full as a kid’s stomach after a thanksgiving dinner.
Abby’s mom drove around to different stops, which at every stop there was something that was a part of the world war. Abby was really enjoying these stops. Every time Abby stopped at a site they would get out and explore what happened there. At one of these stops there was a huge stand that she and her family walked up to in freezing, cold, rainy weather. Abby didn’t like being up there but she got some great pictures also while she is freezing her butt off. It was a piece of cake walking up the stairs. Abby was liking to explore.
When they stopped at another stop there was a barn with a huge hole from a cannon in the war, her whole family thought it was cool, they started getting pictures. Abby was to fascinated to take a picture. Then she drove some more and there weren’t many cool stops left.
