FV part 2: Buggies and Trains

Once we got to Lancaster, PA, we took a buggy ride through the Amish country. We were a little sad that our tour guide wasn't Amish, but we felt more comfortable asking an "Englishman" questions. The views were beautiful and the ride so peaceful. We also took Rhone on the Strasburg railroad. It is a coal powered steam engine. Everything was quite original. The cars were beautiful and Rhone loved the ride. We also discovered there is a quite a "country" smell in Lancaster from all the cow manure.

Rhone took this picture.
I love the look of delight on Rhone's face!
