“Hello, people from the outside world! We are missing our
parents very much, and we hope to see them again very soon. We have been
staying in an awesome hostel. We had pancakes for breakfast, and we explored
Harper's Ferry and the history surrounding it. We learned about John Brown and
his influence in the Civil War. We learned that the modern rifle was originated
as a musket with grooves inside the barrel, spinning the bullet as it was
fired, among tons of other stuff. We feel like we're in school again because we
got so much stuff crammed into our heads! We asked lots of questions on the
tour guides, and had historic ice cream! Overall, we are having a blast and are
looking forward to D.C.” – Gustav, Teen Trekker
