On to sweeter things: Hershey, PA

 After seeing the Sky Walk, we jumped back in the car for a 4-hour drive to Chocolate World!

At Chocolate World, we went on the little factory tour, explored the gift shop and happily enjoyed some decent hot chocolate.  Some of us were a little tempted to check out the amusement park which opened later in the evening for a few hours.  Though the rides were enticing, the wind chill and price were not...

We also took the trolley tour, which showed us much of the town and told us a lot about Mr. Hershey's life and legacy.  It was especially neat to learn about the school he founded.

After dinner at The Pantry, we had just a short drive to our hotel.  We thought that meant we'd actually get to bed at a decent time, but instead we just ended up hanging out, talking and playing with the baby until late.  I'm always amused at how one little baby can capture the attention of so many adults for such a long period of time.
