Reflection
It was cool seeing how people lived there life as a colonist. WE heard what clothes the wore, and how to use a gun, etc. They actually looked like real colonists with a job and a house or shelter. Also, they let us hold a fake musket and learn the orders and how and when to use it. My favorite person was Ida because I learned what toys and games kids would play.
