Landed in Pennsylvania! I took a red eye flight and by the time I landed, picked up my rental car, picked up my daughter, ate lunch, and checked into the hotel, I was beat! So, we decided to do something low key before getting ready for dinner.

Bellefonte always decorates for Christmas, and since the city is historical, it is always beautiful and nostalgic. We took a leisurely walk through the park and enjoyed the beautiful decorations, the adorable ducks, and the scenery. It’s so pretty!

After we enjoyed the park, we walked through the historic downtown and enjoyed taking in more historic sites than the last time we visited Bellefonte. It’s such a beautiful city!

I am thankful I wore my new sneakers because they were incredibly comfortable. I was able to insert my orthotics inside, so my planter fasciitis was pain-free. Love that!

What I wore for exploring Bellefonte:

Stay tuned for more destinations from our Thanksgiving week trip to Pennsylvania!

Thanks for stopping by!

Exploring Bellefonte PA

So, I heard about this amazing Italian Cafe named Bonfatto’s located in Bellefonte. Since we had never visited the Centre County, county seat, we decided to explore Bellefonte for a day.

Bonfatto’s did not disappoint. We enjoyed perfectly made coffees and a delicious lunch. Mine was a latte and my daughter enjoyed a cappuccino. Next, we ordered lunch. We both enjoyed their Bolognese which came with a salad. The cheese in the salad was amazing! The whole food experience was 10/10. We also brought a few pastries from their shop back to the hotel to enjoy later that evening. This place was so good! We plan to go back for more yummy food! Love!

In addition to food, we decided to explore Bellefonte. We left our car by the cafe and walked into town. There was a beautiful monument commemorating all of the governors who came from Bellefonte, including one from California! We were excited to see our state represented on their monument! There are more governors on the other side of the monument, my photo only shows one side.

We continued into town only to discover everything was closed since it was Sunday. I always forget about this when I am traveling. Nevertheless, we gave ourselves a walking tour of the monuments, historical buildings and landmarks, as well as the natural views. What a beautiful place! We definitely plan to go back when everything is open, not on a Sunday!

So, if you love history, historical architecture, and would love to enjoy an Italian Cafe, go visit Bellefonte!

Thanks for stopping by!

XOXO
