2010 - Vacation - Amish Country

A drive through Lancaster County was on the itinerary for the trip to Wilkes-Barre but the delay in New Castle and the extended visit at Longwood Gardens made us reschedule this until the trip back. But we're very glad we rescheduled it rather than canceled it. The homes were beginning to look Amish but we knew we were there when we saw this buggy.

I can see it now "Four local girls arrested for speeding"! They were moving along very fast!



We saw several unusual modes of transportation. One was a bicycle that had no pedals but was built, and used, like a scooter! (The name of the town was Bird in Hand.)

We saw a couple barns like this and were wondering about the open sides but it looks like tobacco hanging in them and the open sides are for the drying process.

Yes -we did take a ride in the buggy - and confirmed that it is Ahh-mish and not AA-mish!
