After driving all night we have finally arrived in Atlanta (the GPS says we are at 33. 74. 89°N, 84. 39. 00°W. It is hot here. . . so hot some people call it Hotlanta!

Hello there! I am writing to you from fabulous Los Angeles, California. There are soooo many people here. I did some research and found out it’s the second most populated city in the United States. So many of these people aren’t originally from California; they traveled from all over the world to come here to try to be successful in the entertainment industry. Los Angeles lies south of San Francisco. Cool, huh? I can’t wait to go to the beach. Place Movement Location-R

We are having an amazing time taking our road trip through New England. Although there are six different states, they are all connected by a similar historical background. Most of New England was founded by British colonists. Since it is January and really cold here, people tend to wear a lot of layers and even their roofs are slanted so the snow falls off. The region of New England is located east of New York state. While we’re here, I think I’m going to go skiing! Region HEI-adopt Location-R
