Sandy Banks was excited to visit the historic sites of Boston. Upon arriving in the city Sandy went immediately to Faneuil Hall, even though it was 4:30 in the morning. Sandy went to the main entrance, saw that the shops were closed, but wandered around the building, gazing and pondering the meaning of history. Sandy then slipped and fell. Although in great pain, Sandy looked around and spotted a brown, leathery banana peel, six inches in length, lying on the gray, slate floor.
