Saturday, July 19, 2008

Today we thought we just might spend the day loafing around the campground. But, we thought we had time to find the cities of Bird in Hand and Intercourse, PA. They are both located in Lancaster County, and are heavily settled by Mennonites and Amish.

We arrive at Bird in Hand and head towards the bakery. June told me that they had wonderful raisin bread. We did not find any raisin bread, but did purchase shoo-fly pie and a breakfast bread.

We went into Farmer's Market and it was full of everything a family would want. They had everything from crafts to fresh food. WE had already eaten so lunch was not to be had here, but everything smelled good.

From here we went east to Intercourse and found the Kitchen Kettle. It is a huge outdoor mall like setting. It has many quaint shops along the walkway. Tom and Charley stayed by the car while Nancy went shopping. It was late in the day when we left, with hopes of returning another day.
