ThanksgivingRiddle #1337
We left one country over its church, lived for years in another, then crossed an ocean and landed hundreds of miles north of where we meant to. We wrote our own rules before going ashore, and cartoons still give us hat buckles we probably never wore. Who are we?
Hint: We came over on the Mayflower.
Answer
The Pilgrims
The Pilgrims were English Separatists who lived in the Netherlands for about 12 years, sailed on the Mayflower aiming for the Hudson River area, landed at Cape Cod instead, signed the Mayflower Compact, and the buckled hats came from later artists.
