Gettysburg, Hershey and Liberty Bell

I now realize that it is gonna take me forever to get caught up! Especially now that school has started :( I will try my best though :) Ok, so since I am of course still playing catch-up, I am combining Gettysburg with Hershey Pennsylvania and the Liberty Bell. Gettysburg was a pretty neat experience, we went on a driving tour, we had a CD that explained everything for us. There were memorials/statues and huge headstones ALL over the place. 

North Carolina Memorial :)

After Gettysburg we went to Hershey Pennsylvania, which I found out doesn't really exist? Weird.. I know and I don't exactly know how to explain it, so I would suggest to you if your curious to Google it :) That's what I always do; me and Google are like BFF's now. Moving on though, I was super duper excited for Hershey! What person in their right mind doesn't love chocolate right? ;)

Welcome to Heryshey! It's kinda funny cause me and Hope were talking about the "castle-like building" up on the hill
 and it turns out to be the town's middle school.. i was like WHAAA?!! I wish I could go to school in a cool looking building.... :)

Yup, Chocolate World.. be jelous ;) 

We went on a tour of Hershey, and we had a hilarious tour guide: Fred. He told us that Hershey is the sweetest place on Earth, even the air smells sweet, and is therefore the only place where you can breathe and get fat.

Milton Hershey's Birthplace!

Hershey Cocoa bushes! They also have chocolate geese in Hershey :) ok no they don't, but you know those geese that
have dark brown heads and necks, light brown backs, and white bellies? Well Fred told us that they were chocolate geese because they have Dark Chocolate Heads, Milk Chocolate Backs, and White Chocolate bellies :)

So I pretty much think that I would have the coolest address on the face of the planet if I lived on Chocolate Avenue.. 

One of the few places where this isn't creepy ;)

After eating lot's of chocolate and having fun in Hershey we quickly drove over to the Liberty Bell so that we could see it before it closed that day because it would be closed all weekend.. and that wouldn't work for us.

I only know about Pass and Stow cause of National Treasure... The whole time we were in D.C. I kept picturing
scenes from the movies :)

Next up: New York and New Jersey! 

Oh and guess what?? I counted all the states we're going to be going through and by the end of this trip I will have gone to 32 states! Before this trip I had only been to 6 states and Canada. Pretty awesome :)
