I had no idea there was so much history in downtown Ft. Myers. You see it in the way the buildings were built and structured. I learned long ago that Thomas Edison and Henry Ford had lives here long ago but I never knew that Ft. Myers had been established way before that. The videos were very informational and it is cool to see how the area you live in came about. I think doing the scavenger hunt is a great idea for getting to know that area. I liked how the questions were informational but also had some fun ones as well. I probably learned the most from this field trip just because I had a lot of fun doing it. When I first went over the scavenger hunt I remember thinking Yoda? As we walked up and down the streets it was funny to see how many people knew we were doing a scavenger hunt for an FGCU class without saying anything to them. I really liked the painting at the Olympic building. I had heard about it on the news when it had first opened up so it was nice to be able to see it. Toward the end I was getting frustrated because I only had one left and I could not find it anywhere, but as I went to get something to drink from a store it was right there, and I just laughed. I think it was really cool that they used shells as concrete for the sidewalk.
