CHOCO- late.

About a month ago, the family sojourned to Harrisburg, Pennsylvania (Tourist mecca that it is) to the state competition for Mathcounts.  Kevin is the coordinator for the local chapter so each year, he goes to grade the problems of the middle school math prodigies.

Every year the boys and I tag along.  We run around the area in the morning until Kevin is done, then head off on a adventure.   This year we headed to Hershey, PA.  "It's a Hershey's Chocolate World!" people.

It is quite a fun little place.  We rode the factory tour ride twice (free and receive a mini Kit Kat at the end..bonus!),  enjoyed a delicious chocolate shake, watched a 4-D chocolate mystery movie (okay Hersheys stretching it a bit with the attractions) and then, dun dun duh, created our own chocolate bars.



We have been nibbling on those suckers for weeks now.  I realize that the regular Hershey bar is a thin amount of chocolate.  These babies were very, very thick!

  1. Awesome...we've never been! Might have to build that into the schedule the next time we hit Lancaster for "Educational Leave"!

  2. I have such good memories of Hershey! I don't know how many times we rode that ride and listened to the singing cows!

    You are so much fun. You remind me that I need to arrange a family vacation for our family one of these days!
