What's That Delicious Smell? ... CHOCOLATE!!

 

Lady Hiva tried to get home to Hawaii for a funeral of a dear cousin--someone that we both love so much. However, after two frustrating times of waking the children up at 0200h driving to the airport and then having flights cancel, it was time to decide to not go. I packed a quick bag and picked them up from the airport...we went on an impromptu road trip! 

This impromptu weekend trip took us to Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Maryland, DC, Virginia, and Delaware! We did Hershey, PA, Philadelphia, PA, Rehoboth, DE, New York, NY. This blog will cover our first stop, Hershey, PA--the other stops will be covered in subsequent blogs. 

Years ago Lady Hiva and I went to Hershey, PA to see the chocolate factory. It was fun then, and when we told the Muggles about it, they wanted to go try it out! So our first stop from the airport was to drive to Hershey







We decided to do the tour to make our own candy bars. We dressed in factory clothing and we chose what type of chocolate, what types of things inside, and designed our own packaging. Some of our favorite parts were watching the lasers and the robotics work! It was so much fun. 
























We made some really BIG Reese's peanut butter cups. It was so big. I am not sure who is going to eat these, but they were fun to make.
