Hershey's Chocolate World



A couple of weekends ago, we spent a day at Hershey's Chocolate World. It was a free tour of the chocolate factory and how they make chocolate. The tour has singing cows and free chocolate! If you love chocolate, it is a fantastical experience!





We got a hotel room in a nearby city of Harrisburg, PA (the capital city). We stayed at the Four Points Sheradan. It had a great lobby and swimming pool. I took Nayeli and Victoria swimming in the pool with their inflatable shark and whale. They cried and cried and after about 2 hours, they couldn't get enough of the pool.





At night after a long day at Hershey, we decided to drive up to Hotel Hershey (I really didn't want to pay an upwards of $450 a night for a hotel). We ate at a restaurant called "The Harvest". It was behind the ice skating rink. The restaurant required that we have reservations, but we didn't have any. So they offered us seating outside in the 90 degree weather. It was okay until I found out that the waitress forgot about us. We were practically dying in the heat and a couple of guests got up and left shortly after sitting down. We were very hesitant to leave since we spend all day trying to find a great place to eat. And this place got rave reviews... Once we got service, the food was great! The meal ended with a Reese's shot to top off my chocolate cravings. I left happy and over a hundred bucks poorer. It was worth it though.
