Pennsylvania visit 2017 - Doing all the things!

By
In 2017 we were in PA for all the Halloween fun! Really it was one of the busiest visits to PA we have had! We went on the Lancaster Ghost Tour on Halloween which I loved! Fulton Opera House is supposed to be super haunted

As well as lots of other places around the city. We heard some fun ghost stories

While we were there Raymond asked "Where are the covered bridges?" So after shopping one day we drove by one so he could see it



So much fun



My mom taking photos of us taking photos





One day we went to the Corn Maze! 

At the start - still wearing our jackets as we hadn't warmed up yet. It is surprisingly warm in the maze

Finding a box with a piece of the maze puzzle

Plotting and planning

Trying to see where to go

Last year was Charlotte's Web themed

And we did it! We had the fastest time that day when we went through

We found some Halloween crackers at the thrift store and I love how intense I look about them!

We also did an escape room! My first one!

I know it is a bad photo, but the only one I have of the 5 of us pre-scape. With my mom, sister, mom's friend, and us

We were tasked with finding this flag - and we did it! I really enjoyed this! Though it was good Raymond was with us as for one of the tasks we had to slingshot beanbags through a window into the second room and hit something on the other side of the room...and Raymond was the only one who could make it across the room!

We also went to trivia one night - I like the trivia in Lancaster as it is one question at a time and all individual answers so if you don't agree with your team you can write what you want. Then all the correct answers go in a box to win candy periodically! Win!

We also got to visit my cousin Paula and her kids. With all of that plus all the shopping I had to do it was a very busy week! But really nice to get to spend time with my mom and sister and do all the things!

Colmar, France Part 2 - All the museums!

By
So when we were wandering around Colmar and spying on all the things we saw a sign that we happened to be in Colmar on a free night at the museum! So most of the museums in town were free from 7pm-11pm/midnight (depending on the museum). So we of course had to go check them out! There were only four in town so we were able to go to all of them, though by the end we were so tired and our feet were so sore from a long day of exploring and long night of museums.  First up was the Museum Bartholdi, but I didn't take any photos in there (I wasn't sure I was allowed and it was super busy, so many people!). It was super tiny, but interesting. There were a lot of models of ideas he had for different monuments and then what he actually ended up using. The one room was just ideas and designs for the Statue of Liberty which was cool. There wasn't a lot there, but what there was I enjoyed.  Then it was over to the Natural History and Ethnology Museum Cool bugs

San Francisco Part 1

By
  Oh San Francisco. What a wonderful time I had there. It was absolutely beautiful the entire time. Sunny, warm, gorgeous. Plus getting to spend a few days with Jacalen and Patricia = So much fun! We definitely need to do more girls trips! This will be a mostly picture post   I arrived late afternoon and the bus dropped me off near Fishermans Wharf and I walked over to where we were staying. Oh, it was gorgeous outside, but with my bags and such I was a bit warm. Not expecting that in February! Patricia arrived a bit after I did and we had the evening to ourselves to do whatever we wanted! It was so nice out and we were staying in the Marina District so it was just a short walk down to the water. Beautiful!   After wandering along the waterfront for a bit it was time for some dinner! We happened to find the Plant Cafe and I got a plant burger with fries and a salad. Really tasty! Afterwards we went to get a drink and noticed the bar had trivia on Tue
