Eddie's Flat Stanley in Massachusetts!

Flat Stanley is enjoying time in one of Eddie's favorite states, Massachusetts! While he has been here spending quality time with Eddie's cousin, he has seen so many exciting things!
The beginning of his journey here started with a tour of the historical South Boston. He got to see the Dorchester Heights Monument, World War II Memorial,  L-Street Beach and lastly, he went to cheer on the Celtics!



Boston is a pretty great city, George Washington (Mrs. Sturgis's class, take a peek at a dollar bill, you'll see George Washington's face on it!) spent a lot of time here. In fact, Flat Stanley visited Dorchester Heights on the anniversary of him winning a war here! 



Most people only go to the beach during the summer time, right?... Here in Boston we have an event called, The Polar Plunge. On New Years Day, a bunch of silly people go swimming in the ocean! The rest of the year there are people sun bathing like Flat Stanley is here in this picture.

After a few historical tours around the city, we decided to have a little bit of fun and go see a Celtics game. We spent a few hours at TD Garden watching the Celtics win an awesome game.


His last night here, he spent the evening checking out the gorgeous skyline relaxing on a roof deck.


Off to his next adventure!

Kylie's Flat Stanley in the Netherlands!

Kylie's Flat Stanley is visiting Maci in Haarlem in the Netherlands, which is also called Holland.  It is famous for lots of bikes, windmills, and millions of tulips in the springtime.  There are also a lot of canals filled with water, and there are horses and sheep!  My favorite birds look like Oreo cookies!

Seamus' Flat Stanley Visits Hogwarts!

Hello, Seamus! I had a blast in England visiting Warner Brothers Studio where the Harry Potter films were made. Cousins Abby, Kelsie, Katy and Charlie brought me there!

Seamus' Flat Stanley Tries to Talk to the Queen's Guard in England

I tried to see the Queen but no luck. I did see see her guards on their horses. They ride with the Queen when she takes her carriage for the State Opening of Parliament every year and they also accompany the bride and groom at royal weddings. This guards are not allowed to smile or talk to anyone, unless they need to protect the horse. They sit very erect and still. Actually, this one told me not to get so close to the horse. Oops! Love, Flat Stanley

More fun in England with Seamus' Flat Stanley


This is my family taking care of me in London. There is Uncle Dave holding me with Aunt Jill and Cousin Katie. We managed to fit Big Ben and a red telephone booth in this picture. London is famous for these red telephone booths which have been around since the 1920's. A red double decker bus is also going by! Another famous thing to see in London!

Seamus' Flat Stanley in England!

Seamus' Flat Stanley is having a great time on the continent of Europe in London, England! Big Ben is the humongous bell in this tower that chimes when the clock strikes hourly. It is very loud! The tower is connected to the parliament building in London. The parliament is the place where laws are made for the United Kingdom, like the Capitol building in Washington DC in the United States.
