Historic Trip continued Day 5

September 16th--Wednesday
Today was another full day of events.  We started out and did an inside tour of Gettysburg museum and then we went to see the movie and then the full size diorama painting.  It was well done.  It was so sad to hear about the war.  There were so many that died in this war. 

When we finished Gettysburg then we drove to our next destination which was visiting Hershey Pennsylvanian. This was such a fun and delicious!






After Hershey we were on the road again to the Lancaster Pennsylvania  to eat lunch at a Amish type lunch that is served family style.  The restaurant is called Good N Plenty. The meal was delicious but expensive. After lunch we drove around to see some of the Amish people. 









After our tour of the Amish village then will be headed to go see the Washington DC temple.  I put the coordinates in for the temple and we followed the directions but when we came to our final destination it ended up being an LDS Chapel not the temple.  We had to try again and Gary had to make sure it was the right place.  We finally made it to the temple. 


 We drove to McLean VA to see Dave and Melissa Mayhew and their two daughter Evalee and Kaylie.  Janice had sent clothing for both girls.  It was fun to see where they are living with Dave's parents.  We took them to dinner with us and ate at McLean family dining.  After dinner we went to our hotel Hampton Inn in Washington DC.
