There is so much to do in Hershey, PA! It was so nice to be able to go back over Thanksgiving break and visit the Hershey Antique Auto Museum and also be able to stroll through Hershey Gardens and see all the beautiful Christmas decorations, holiday decorations, gardens, fall foliage, and roses. Despite being cold and wintery outside, the gardens were still beautiful. Love!

Hershey Antique Auto Museum | AACA Museum

We started our day at the Hershey Antique Auto Museum. I was impressed! There is a rotating exhibit near the entryway and the museum is full of automotive history packed onto three floors! There was even a small train section. It was really educational and fun. There were so many automotive brands I had never heard of, and a large number of unique vehicles. There was even a section all about Tucker! Now my dream car is a Tucker. I need to watch the movie. It sounds so amazing!

If you are ever in the Hershey area, I highly recommend visiting the Hershey Antique Auto Museum (AACA Museum) and taking the time to see all three floors. It is really an amazing place! Love!

Hershey Gardens

After visiting the AACA Museum, we went to Hershey Gardens. Despite being cold and winery outside, it was so nice to stroll through the gardens and see the beautiful, manicured flowers, plants, trees, etc. I definitely would like to return in the late spring when everything is in full bloom. It looks like the flowers and roses will be beautiful! In November, we caught the end of the fall foliage and a few roses remained for us to enjoy. The gardens were decorated for the holidays, so it was magical. Loved it!

Again, if you are in Hershey, PA, definitely visit Hershey Gardens! It is a beautiful walk, perfect chance for fresh air, and you will love the manicured gardens.

Rainy winter day

One of my favorite restaurants in State College, PA is The Tavern. I took my daughter there for her birthday and it was delicious! We shared the arancini balls as an appetizer, and then I enjoyed the Pross Scallops, and my daughter enjoyed the bolognese. We also had dessert! It was all delicious. I highly recommend going to The Tavern if you are ever in State College. It’s so good!

The day we went it was pouring rain outside. I was thankful for this umbrella which also seems to handle wind extremely well. If you need a good winter umbrella, this one is fabulous.

These trousers are petite, so I didn’t need to shorten them. If you wear petite, you know how amazing this is! They are also available in regular and tall sizes too. Love that!

I hope your holiday season is going well. If you are still gift shopping, all my gift guides are in the main menu above. I hope you enjoy!

Thanks for stopping by!

Winter walk in Bellefonte

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!
