We headed to north of Philadelphia, to Wayne where John’s brother and family live. On the way we stopped at Hershey, Pa and Intercourse, Pa. Intercourse is in the middle of Pennsylvania Dutch country.
The Susquehanna river. My brother Ray called me Susquehanna when we were kids because I wore my hair in pig tails. CHOCOLATE WORLD!!
Chocolate world. The talking cows in the faux factory tour telling us that it is the milk that make the milk chocolate.
I am in love! A kissortment machine. You can make up your own bag of kisses, with all the flavors.
Chocolate world, Hershey Park amusement park. The golden arch is really a roller coaster. There are 12 there.

Intercourse Pa. The Pennsylvania Dutch don’t use modern conveniences. They drive buggy's, and don’t use electricity. Most are Amish or Mennonites. They make their own clothes and dress very conservatively.
They are know for their hand made products. Here is a room full of hand stitched quilts at one of the shops, a Pennsylvania Dutch market.
Most are farmers, they raise a lot of their own food. Here is a shot of the country side. John milking Klarabelle.
