New Journal Entry
We had a great time -- even though the weather was not cooperative. It was FREEZING the entire time that we were there. We arrived on Tuesday and even though our group of 26 was split - thanks to the security at BNA/Nashville airport. We all eventually made it to Cambridge.
We arrived at our hotel - it was very nice actually. The rooms are large and have lots of natural light coming. I had a corner room - so that might have had something to do with it. I was in a junior suite - which means that it had a full kitchenette - which if I was in Cambridge for a long time I would have used. I just didn't have time to grocery shop. :)
The hotel does offer a full continental breakfast - and also a hospitality hour in the evening. So, if you are on a budget - you can get two meals a day for free. The food is okay - not anything fancy - but good.
The Freedom Trail Tour - which by the way is in the book 1,000 places to see before you die - is fantastic. It was one of the best parts of our trip. It was VERY cold but if you bundle up - you will be fine.

This trip will consist of 12 selected 8th and 9th grade students from Metropolitan Nashville Public Schools. They will be accompanied by a parent or guardian. I am going as the district representative. The trip is organized and overseen by the Adventure Science Center. Most of the trip will consist of activities at MIT. We will be able to sight see and tour Boston on our own. However, we will take the Freedom Trail tour together on Tuesday night. We will also take part in a team building activity at the 5Wits tomb, attend a Soapbox lecture on a MIT City Car, tour the MIT Museum, and take in the Laser Zepplin show.
