The effort from the tour guide to keep us informed and entertianed made the tour more lively and informative. Otherwise in any city tour,what you generally see are monuments, statues, memorials, museums and sometimes few gardens and harbour cruises. These things seem to be common to any of the US city tours. But knowing about the associated history and people makes it more memorable, than just watching the beauty of those buildings and admiring the size of the monuments.
Philadephia happened to be a short visit, where we had a glance at the Independence Hall and the Liberty bell. But were lucky to see a live parade of soldiers dressed in attire resembling the 17th century American freedom soldiers. There was a address by Benjamin Franklin (this guy dressed as Benjamin Franklin made us feel as if we are back in time and looking at the great man in flesh) on this occasion. He is one of the prominent historical figures in US and have invented the lightning rod, the glass harmonica, the Franklin stove and bifocal glasses. The US dollar 100 bills carries his image on them. He is the one, who took first steps in abolishing slavery from America.
The Air and space museum depicts the history of mans ambition to fly higher ans higher and you can see the first plane used by right brothers to space shuttles and supersonic jets and rockets eveything under one roof. But you know guyz, it just really get boring after a while, common I am here to see Washington DC, the streets and the gardens and the people. For one to actaully know all about these planes and war machines take out a day and you will get lost in those great technical wonders. Thankfully our visit was quite short and we were again on our bus in an hour's time.
Jefferson memorial was again a very asthetically beautiful monument, with a tall statue of Jefferson and the inscriptions of "the declaration of Independence" on four side of the wall. He was the principle author of the "The declaration of Independence". Jefferson memorial has a Washington Monument on one side and a beautiful lake on the opposite side and the view from top is really soothing to the eyes. We wished we could go on top of the washington monument and have a look at the city from the top, but that wasn't possible due to time constraints.
The Linoln memorial is face to face with the washington monument separated by a stretch of water fountains. The monuments looks really beautiful during night due to its illumination. You can see a beautful landscape and shoreline of the potomac river, behind this memorial. The staue took me back in time and just rememebred few words from his famous letter, he wrote to his son's teacher. We were made to read this letter in class 8th by one of our teachers and actually made an important mark on our minds, at that age. The War Memorials like Korean war memorial makes you feel introvert about the irony of this world and you salute those statues, who gave up their lives fighting for the motherland.
Virginia seems to be famous for its caverns and it has two beautiful caverns the lurey caverns and the shenandoah caverns. In this trip we visited shenandoah caverns. Cavern is nothing but a cave like structure below ground, where you can see beautiful formations of lime stones, sulpher, water and other natural elements. They are technically called as STALAGMITES and STALACTITES. They grow from the ceiling as water runs down inside them and deposits rings of calcite at their tips. The reflections of these structures in the rainbow lake were astonishing and it was worth a watch.
Baltimore has its own elegance and seems to be a oldest harbour in US and one of the tourist attarctions in Maryland. We got a chance to look at America's first Nuclear Ship and the view from our cruise ship was so panoramic. The harbourside villas, the parked boats, the old Domino's sugar factory,the fire guard boats, few sailboats gliding lazily in the harbour, all this gives you a feeling of tranquility and you start inhaling and enjoying the fresh air of chesapeak bay, allowing yourself to relax and capture the beauty of the shoreline. On a nearby hillside is a starshaped brick fort, above which a huge 18th-century American flag proudly flies.Fort McHenry is the birthplace of the American national anthem. The valiant defense of the fort and the harbor by American forces during the War of 1812 inspired Francis Scott Key to write "The Star Spangled Banner."
So overall a very comfortable and enjoyable trip for me and would recomment the shenendoah caverns for all of you, if you havn't seen any before.

I liked the hotel we stayed; the room was clean and comfortable. We meet many international travelers like us, the tour was conducted in bilingual English and Chinese and the company had informed us ahead of time. The majority travelers in our trip were Asian, but not necessarily all Chinese. We had choices on our meal selection, the tour guide did recommended Chinese food, but when we ask if there are other options, he was kind enough to let us know and lead it to other restaurant. Overall, the tour was fun and we meet nice people along the way, I highly recommend this tour to people of all ages.
