Day 1, April 21

Today we will travel south making our way through southeastern Massachusetts, and from there, passing through Rhode Island before stopping in Connecticut to stretch our legs and grab something quick for breakfast. Once we get underway again, we leave Connecticut, and pass through New York and New Jersey. In southern New Jersey we will stop so you can get some lunch before continuing on through Delaware and Maryland. Dinner will be at the Golden Corral Restaurant in Largo, Maryland, and when we finish, we will head into Washington, DC for an evening tour of some of Washington's most famous memorials and monuments the Korean War Memorial, the Vietnam War Memorial, and the Lincoln Memorial.   At the conclusion of the evening tour, we will check into our hotel, the Sheraton Pentagon City in Arlington, Virginia.
