The Sweetest Place on Earth

Hershey, PA! One day back in August (while at church), I discovered that Hershey, PA was only a couple of hours from where we would be living. We had to go and yesterday (Todd had the day off because it was Columbus Day) we went. We had a great time! It is about 2 hours and 45 min away but it enabled us to see a lot of Pennsylvania. I want to live there; or really anywhere in New England (technically PA isn't part of New England but meh, details...). Besides falling in love with the fall scenery, here is what we did:

We arrived


Went to "Hershey's Chocolate World"

Went on a free tour of the chocolate lab

Graduated with our Master's in Chocolate Tasting

Went on the free tour again (there are singing cows...who could resist?)

Went to "Cafe Zooka" to sample some Chocolate Shots

Didn't drink all of the shots...they were very thick and bitter and weird

Strolled down "Chocolate Ave"


And left... (we took this picture all by ourselves)

We had a wonderful day and we are very thankful we have the opportunity to be doing all these amazing things... together!

Oh my....I want chocolate immediately! I'm so jealous! P.S. We need to chat sometime. I feel like it's been too long!
