Your FLAT STANLEY came all the way to my city,

Baghdad, Iraq

While he was here, these are some of the exciting things he saw and did:

He got to drive around the city in a hummve and stand in the turret and man a 240B Machine gun.  He worked the radios.  Flat Stanley saw the center monument in Baghdad.  He saw 2 Black Hawk helicopters take off the ground and fly over head.  He met some Iraqi people. He saw a palace.

The distance between Beverly, MA and Baghdad is 5,789 miles.

 If Flat Stanley comes back to visit he should bring shorts and a tank top, with had and sunscreen.  Because the climate here is VERY HOT.
