Gettysburg was much bigger than I expected - lots of monuments and lots of history. The one thing I really wanted to see - the site of Lincoln's address - we never found. But we saw lots of stuff.
Amish Country was something to see. Really, really lovely countryside. We got off the beaten path and went through Intercourse (tee-hee) and White Horse (or maybe White Path. Or White Oak. White Something.) The weather did NOT cooperate - it rained on us the whole time. Didn't get really good pictures, but we saw lots of neat scenes. Two little boys pushing a wagon down the road in the rain was my favorite, followed by an Amish man on a plow pulled by five HUGE pack horses. Very different way of life.
And then we drove into Philly and got to the hotel. The boys love the rooftop pool, and we had Philly Cheesesteaks for dinner. Quite night and early bedtimes tonight, and then we hit the museums tomorrow. Good times.

Now I will admit that I'm not too good at geography, but I did not know that you went through SC to get to PA from TN.
