Stanley visits Delaware!

Flat Stanley had a wonderful and historic visit with his hosts the Troutmans in the First State: Delaware!

Stanley visited historic Odessa, where there are several blocks of historic homes that were built in the 1700s. That was back when Delaware was still only a colony, and America didn't even exist as its own country yet!




Stanley also got to see the Atlantic Ocean! Looks chilly but still very lovely, 
and the hosts are super adorable.


Thanks Ms. Emily for showing Stanley around beautiful Delaware!
