Hershey Fairway Motel

We met in the Jordan Atrium at Messiah at 1100 to weigh our luggage, pack the last of the gifts, and load the bus to go to JFK...the beginning of the journey. We all got there...all of our luggage weighed in under the required 50 lbs and everyone had their passports! I think we're ready...on our way at last!

We're making our lists and checking them twice, and trying to decide what to put in what bag/suitcase! Hoping we won't forget anything. I'll be meeting the students Tuesday morning at Messiah College to take a coach to JFK. We fly out at about 10:00 pm...but we'll need to pretend that it is 10:00 am since that's what it will be in Thailand.

So, I just had to post this awesome story. In this show, I am playing the mother, Kathryn Dover, to five little girls (one at a time of course!) who play my daughter named Sarah Dover. As they are all different, with different personalities, they all get different middle names, and as their 'mother' I get to pick those middle names. And one litt...

This is my first post on TravelPod and I'd like to start by thanking TravelPod for allowing me to use their blog service. I’ve been staying with my Aunt Kathy, her husband, Mike, and my little cousins, Katie and Alex since returning from the Appalachian Trail in mid-October. It has been absolutely wonderful being around them and also havin...

So as I predicted, Hershey Park was well worth the money, it was a really good day out.
We set out at 8am for the drive across three States, which took around three hours. The drive itself was actually quite enjoyable as we went through some really nice scenery and past at least one Amish farm in Pensylvania (we spotted an Amish man driving ...

We were on our way to meet Reena's old school friend from back in Singapore. We found ourself driving straight threw Pennsylvania. This is where Ram when to high school.

We made some quick calls and Ram found a high school friend that he hasn't seen or even talked to in 8 years! We stoped only for a couple hours and we had to be on our wa...

We had breakfast in the hotel. They served free hot and healthy breakfast buffet. Love the egg and sausage patties.

We met the rest of Abi's GS Troop at the entrance but as soon as the gate opened and we got in everybody went there own separate way. We're not really rushing because we're staying one more night and we rode some of the ride...

Mom and I had a great time in Hershey eventhough the hotel was doing construction right outside our door at 7am. We did not know they were doing construction and heard drilling, hammering, etc. Needless to say after we pulled in after midnight on Sunday, we were pretty tired and were not pleased to wake up so early. We complained to the manageme...

We set out for Philadelphia which was about an hour drive from where we were located. Rusty was pretty bummed that he was going to have to spend the day trudging around another big city with more American history to boot! He kept asking what we were going to be doing there and how long we were going to be there and when would we get back to open...

Today we were all up early again.  Well, all of us except Michael.  He slept as late as he possibly could before we eventually had to drag him out of bed!  While he was getting ready I took a few pictures of the room and sat out on the patio with Alison before taking Alison on a walk around the pool to the lobby and back.  Alison was really exci...
