We drove to the Hersey Chocolate Factory for a tour. Before we even made it into the parking lot you could smell the chocolate in the air.
Once inside we went on a small amusement park ride that basically showed you how the chocolate is made. We then took the tour of the manufacturing process. During this tour, we got to make our own chocolate bars. We each went to a computer screen and selected what kinda of chocolate bar we wanted, along with 3 different add ins (I selected almond bits, butterscotch chips and Heath Bar bits). Then if we wanted sprinkles on top. After we finished, we got to watch the automated machine assemble our chocolate bars. While waiting for the chocolate bar to cool down, we went to another computer and each of us designed our own wrapper. See photo below of our masterpieces.
Upon finishing up at Hersey's, we drove to the Gettysburg Campground in Gettysburg, PA
Here we are dressed in garb to keep us from leaving any stray unwanted particles in our chocolate bars.
Here is a house made entirely of chocolate products (well except for the 4x4 wood beams holding it up).
These are our finished masterpiece chocolate bars. Sue's looks nice, but I'm sure mine will taste better :-}
