OMIGOSH! you all! You have no idea how HARD it was choosing which pictures to post and which not to because with over 300 there are just soo many!
Anyway so day 4 was also a really nice day! :) Mrs. Allie and Katy really wanted to take us to this amazing living history village in Massachusetts called Sturbridge Village. It was one of the coolest things we did and I could have spent at least another hole day there but sadly there wasn't time. I mean really this place had me considering packing my bags and moving to Massy just to work at this place! I was in love with it and even though there were school kids jammed into every corner I immensely enjoyed the place!

| figuring out where to go first. |
yeah it's unusual for me to wear sunglasses but... as some of you may know I was sick on the trip and so I wasn't feeling amazing that day, actually anything but amazing, more like a train caring toxic chemicals had wrecked inside my head and all the chemicals were oozing out slowly. ICK! oh yeah and on that train one of the cars exploded or something because my eye hurt! hehe and I was wearing sunglasses to hide the fact that my eye was all pink and swollen, thankfully most the puss was gone. (worst part of having pink eye was the puss!!! :P and the general miserable feeling, but I think part of that was the allergies that I also had going on...)
Anyhow we had lots of fun and saw lots of cool things!

| Thompson Bank, where we learned about banking in the 1840s, also my brother-in-law is a Thompson, that's a banker so I had to get a picture. lol :D |
 |
| This is balcony in the Friends Meeting House, the floor is slanted, I would not have been allowed to sit up there because the temptation to roll balls down it would be tooo great! |
 |
| I was just in love with this view of the farm and other buildings down the hill. |
 |
| I got everyone to smile for a pic! :) |
 |
| "I took a picture of our feet." "I just took a picture of our feet too!" :D |
At lunch we had a nice little picnic under a tree by were we parked, Katy and I both took a picture of out feet... I also tried climbing that tree. (I think a symptom of pink eye must be a strange urge to climb trees cause normally I don't bother even trying to climb them but the hole trip I wanted to climb trees!)
 |
| Derrick doing one of the demonstration, he did the demonstrations of all the mills, and he was nice and answered all our questions! :) |
the afternoon was spent going to mill demonstrations, and looking at other random buildings and houses.
 |
| I loved the way this room was painted!! and if I could I would probably paint my room in a similar way. Also this room was a ballroom at one time which I thought was cool. now they have bed in it and some tables |
 |
| there was also this one little house that had some interactive stuff, like trying on clothes and a rope bed. I dressed up for the fun of it, but none of the dresses fit... |
And that pretty much ended day 4, we went back to the Allies ate dinner and watched a movie before bed (I think).
Also a completely random note that has nothing to do with the trip out east. Recently Mongoo, Payton and I were talking and decided that Mongoo should give Payton and I something to write about, we would both write something and post it on our blogs (hers is Dwelling in the Secret Place if you want to keep an eye out for whenever she posts our writting assignment) soo as soon as I get it written I'm gonna post on here. And remember to look back for Day 5 of the trip sometime (if I can even remember what we did on Day 5...?)!
