This August, we went to New England. We went through 7 states in 11 days. Maine, Vermont, Connecticut, New Hampshsire, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and New York. We stayed with Trent and Karie's family in New Hampshire for 3 nights, then headed to Boston and New York for the remaining times. In New York (Little Italy), Chase and Aiden were sitting on the same bench as a guy who got his gold chain ripped off, and Chase threw up in the taxi all the way to the airport for our return trip. We also stayed in a hotel in Chinatown, which was a little scary. Other than that, we had a great trip!
