1997 was a busy year in our lives. We decided to take some time out for "down time" to re-energize.
So it was that Tutz made the travel plans--hotel reservations and the like--for us to drive up thru Northeast US and into Canada.
We left Georgia on September 27th and returned home on October 13th.
Our travels included: Amish Country in Lancaster, Pa; Hershey,Pa; Niagara Falls-Canadian side; Toronto and Montreal Canada; Quebec City Canada including the historical hotel-Le Chateau Frontenac (room 1708); Maine; Boston; New York including Statue of Liberty-Ellis Island--Time Square--Wall Street--NYSE Tour--Broadway Musical Miss Saigon; New Jersey; Delaware; and DC.
It was a great trip--not real relaxing but a lot of fun and sightseeing. I think the highlights for me were Times Square and climbing to the top of the Statue!
Below are a few of our photos. Hope you enjoy.

Here we are buying that certain "special" piece of art of Quebec City which will later be matted and framed and hung in our home for many years to come.

This is the center of the universe for all Chocolate-holics. Where the street lights are in the shape of large chocolate kisses.
We loved the Amish country.
