no regrets

if today is the only day you get, how would you like to spend it

Victoria Day long weekend trip III

Day 3 (New York City --> Philadelphia --> Washington D.C--> Balimore)

Philadelphia is meaningful in the history of the Unite States. That was where they started independence. I saw lots of kids go to the independence center for education, which help them to knowledge about the national history and pride. The liberty bell doesn't seem special, but it is a symbol.

The U.S is strong for a good reason. The Americans are actually pretty smart, ever since more than 100 years ago. I don't mean that Chinese are not, but they didn't manage to maintain the good stuff well. The cities are clean and well organized. Washington D.C's city planning is great. The placement of the white house and Thomas Jefferson's Monument is pretty cool. They formed a line, meaning that Jefferson is watching current President.

There is one great thing in Washington I like the best. All the museums are FREE!!! That is amazing. The government is so generous. I wish I can spend a couple months there and just check out all the museums in every detail.

Balimore is a small town near Washington. Even 8pm in downtown, you can barely see people walking. It used to be a town with high criminal rates and bad reputation. However, after re-planning, this town became neat and peaceful. Once again, it is proved that Americans are good at that.

Day 4 (Balimore --> Penn Cave --> Toronto)

Penn Cave is just a regular cave that can be easily found in China. It becomes special in North America because you see must of those here. Compare to China, North America can barely see all those mountains. I have been to Guiling, Penn Cave is nothing compare to that.

*yes.. i end this roughly, because i really need to finish my work now.
