Friday, July 18, 2008

Great, we are finally here and get to tour like we have wanted to for the past two years. Today we are heading towards, Gettysburg.

Arriving in Gettysburg, we find the visitor center. Wow, this looks new (it was new April 2008). We take in the movie about the civil war and why this was such an important battle in the civil war. Then we tour the museum. This takes us the rest of the day. We see flags of the time, then we see the clothing for the armies of the confederacy and union. Also many kinds of firearms used during the civil war.

This is really great. The museum was everything we thought it would be and more. When we ask staff at the museum bookstore, they guide us to the cd audio tour and we purchase this so we can come back and take the audio tour some other day.
