I know I have been late in updating my blog with the pics from Hershey Park, but I had to get all of the pictures together and I have not yet unpacked, done laundry or put my house back together yet either! Ugh, I need a vacation from my vacation! LOL
Well, the voyage started out rough, of course, that's what happens when the Spiegels and the Neales go on vacation together...Griswald Vacation as we say! It started out as a competition with the GPS systems, TomTom verse the Magellan. Guess you had to be there. Anywho, Sarah and I left with the girls about 20 minutes or so after Erik and Mike and we stopped for a half hour along the way for lunch and we arrived at the hotel about an hour before they did! Erik's TomTom gave him a tour of the East Coast and the bridges and the city before getting them to PA. Sorry, can't laugh about that anymore since they were quite aggravated by the time they got there on Friday afternoon. They then went on their shopping trip for 3 hours to get stocked up for the hotel, Sarah and I took the girls to the pool at the hotel. We then ordered take out for the night and went to bed. Saturday we hung out by the pool all day and oops despite the warnings from the guys, Sarah and I got sunburned...BAD! We suffered for the rest of the weekend and triedto suffer in silence so we didn't get yelled yet. It was hard. We went out to Cheeseburger in Paradise for dinner Saturday. Sunday and Monday were spent at Hershey Park. Sunday we did the park and the rides, the girls had a blast but were absolutey exhausted. We knew we had to bring the stroller the next day, especially for Olivia since she just couldn't keep up and kept wanting to be carried. Sarah and I have nicknamed her Olive Oil since she is so skinny and lanky! You feel like her hand is going to break b/c it is so frail when you are holding her hand.
Monday we went back to the park and we did the tour of Chocolate World. We saw a really cool 3D movie and toured the factory. We then went through the Zoo and went to the rides again and let the girls go in the water park. They were definitely exhausted after this day since we stayed until 9pm.
We left Tuesday and back to the grind on Wednesday... :(

Great to read and view the blog - especially since I remember taking Erik and David on vacation. There are moments which were not worthy of world-wide web broadcasting. David still bears a scar from an encounter with a Bahamian tree while riding on Dad's shoulders. I wonder why we have no photographs of David and Erik amiably conversing in the back seat on our way to Detroit via Niagara Falls? - Poppa Ted
