Hershey, PA! It may be corny, but let me just say that we had a blast. Zach was kind of enough to humor me and go on the free
"tour" ride twice. You can't tour the actual fact
ory, so instead they have created a simulated, sort of Disney version of the factory for you to tour via a little moving cart on a conveyor belt with a little announcer who tells you all the different stages of the chocolate making process.
Plus, there are catchy songs and singing cows, and you get freecandy at the end. And then the ride dumps you out in the huge gift shop where Zach and I exercised some incredible self control and only bought two bags of specialty Hershey's Chocolate Kisses (Irish Creme, and Cherry Cordial).
Friends and family, we are sorry to say that you will not be getting any Hershey's treats as Christmas gifts,because we knew that even if we had bought them, they wouldn't have made it to you anyway. And then we splurged a bit and participated in Chocolate Worlds' newest attraction: Make Your Own Candy Bar! We had a blast. We picked out what kind of chocolate we wanted (I chose milk, Zach chose dark) and then we picked out three add-ins, and then we designed our own labels! And we did all this in a special Hershey's lab. But, that also means that we had to abide by certain rules for health code. So, in the end, our chocolate creations looked awesome!
...unfortunately, we did not look as cool.
