To Fawkes and Ducks...

So what are you fav places out of all of those? I've never been to the States really. I've always fancied New York and Boston. I stopped in LA at the airport for all of about an hour as it was just a transfer stop. Where would you recommend and why?

I know your not talking to me, but I've been to Flordia, Kentucky, and Arkansas. I loved going to Kentucky, we went on a house boat with family. That's loads of fun, and it's so beautiful!

Quebec City is of course in Canada, but it is so awesome! I'd definitely recommend going there.

NYC is great, there's so much stuff to do! I'd definitely recommend going to Chinatown if you go to NYC.

Boston is also fun. So are Baltimore and Washington D.C. Of course, those are all cities that have a lot to do with U.S. history, so if you're not really interested in that, there's less stuff to do. If you do go to any city near the ocean, such as Boston, go on a whale watch! That was one of the funnest things I've ever done on vacation.

Oh, and Niagra Falls! I've been there a few times. Once on the Canadian side and once on the U.S. side. It is incredible! The Maid of the Mist ride is so cool. (that's the boat ride that you take right near the falls).

go to florida! you forget, that's got disney, the ichon of america!

I went there when I was 6. It was the greatest! I'd go back in a heartbeat!

Ooooh what are the interesting spots in Boston? Might be going there in Dec? And does it snow over there during Dec?

[DucksRMagical]

Yep, there's usually snow in December in Boston! But this past year was warm, so I'm not sure if there was.

Hmm, I don't remember what stuff is called, but there's lots of historical stuff. There's the Freedom Trail, which is a trail that goes throughout Boston to all the historical stuff.

And have you ever read 'Make Way For Ducklings'? I can't remember the author, but it's a children's book. It takes place in Boston, so at the pond (don't remember the name of the pond) there are swan boat rides and you can see the ducks. Not sure if this is still going on in December, probably depends on the weather.

If you do visit the pond, watch out for the geese. Don't feed them, not even once. If you do, they will bother you for more and won't stop. This happened to Godric, it's rather funny looking back on it!

Okay, Choki. Boston is one of my favorite places in the world. You MUST walk the Freedom Trail. And on that you will pass Fanuel Hall which is where many patriots met for meetings. Old North Church is a must because that was where Paul Revere got his signal that the British were coming by sea. And the Charlston River is amazing. That is the river that Revere and the Regulars(British soldiers) went over. Then Lexington and Concord where the munitions that the Regulars were after was stored. Paul Rever's house of course if you can get in(I couldn't). The whale watching trips are great. And the Pond with the ducks is on Boston Common('s) and watch out for squirrels there, too.
