Lancaster trip

We are all booked to stay at Willow Valley and have purchased our tickets to Hershey Park and Dutch Wonderland...

Intially we were also planning to do Stradsburg Railroad, but I just dont feel like my little guy will sit on the train for the actual ride (I think he'll love looking at the train, but be a maniac on the actual ride; ruining it for all the other passengers )

Any suggestions on something else we can do while we are there (we have already planned to hit up the outlets )

Re: Lancaster trip

there is a children museum.....can't think of the name right now for the life of me! LOL

also, i don't know which train ride you are thinking of but we did the one during the day out with thomas and the whole ride was just about 15 minutes

Kitchen Kettle Village- cute to walk around with a petting zoo/ play area and very yummy baked goods

Hands on House museum is so cute

Various train museums

Strasburg has other things to do....mini pump car trains and a mini train to ride around

Re: Lancaster trip

Thomas is not there when we are there

Last year we did the open air train- we loved it but I know m 2yrold wont sit still not even for 5 minutes- he'll want to run around and will be a monster when he doesnt get his way

Last time we were there none of the other stuff was open (no little cars, no pump trains; I guess Ill have to look into their schedule) the only things to do there was ride the trains, shop and eat...The museum was open too, but since the weather was sooo nice we opted to be outside!

The farm and hands on museum sounds like fun, def. looking into that!!! How far from Willow Valley are those attractions????
