Hershey Chocolate World & Antique Auto Museum

This morning we drove up to Hershey, PA to Hershey's Chocolate World & the Antique Auto Museum.
We went to Hershey's Chocolate World first. There we went on Hershey’s Great American Chocolate Tour which is an interactive ride (similar to those at Disney World) that took us through the process of making chocolate all the way to the packaged product. We followed the cocoa bean as it went from the tropical rainforest and through the processes that transforms it into chocolate. At the end of our ride we were given samples of Hershey's new candy, Bliss. We stopped by the photo shop to purchase a photo of us that had been taken while we were on the ride.

After our Hershey tour we drove over to the Antique Auto Museum which is about 2 miles away from Hershey's Chocolate World. There we saw vehicles dating from the 1890’s up to the 1970’s.
We saw this 1926 Pierce Arrow touring sedan that chauffeured movie stars from their homes in the Hollywood Hills to Paramount Studios during the 1920’s.
