Sun. April 24 – After church I came  home with Nathan.  When Mark & Nancy got there,  my things      were loaded into  their car and we all went to Chinese Buffet in Adrian for  lunch. Nathan paid then he left to do his laundry before going back to Novi.   In downtown Pittsburgh at 6 :00 p.m.  There was an accident on the bridge and there was a long backup of traffic.  We did see PNC Park home of the Pirates and the Steeler's Arena, 2 bridges and a tunnel on the way to the Holiday Inn Express Hotel.       
Supper at Boston Market.  

Mon. April 25 – Breakfast at hotel. Watched on TV 3 sets of cats growing up, while Mark was on his walk and Nancy showering.  Went to the National Aviary and watched some birds being fed. Mark took part in that.  Lunch at Bob Evans.  Went to Shanksville to see the Flight #93 Memorial. Very touching
experience.  Supper at Roy Rogers on way to Lancaster.  Arrived at Amish View Inn & Suites. Walked around outside after checking in. 

Tues. April 26 – Huge breakfast at the hotel.  Went to Sight & Sound Theatre. (opened in 1998 and seats over 2,000).  Stopped early and they said that they were expecting 30 busses and  it was a good idea to park. We went in and it was a huge place and huge theatre. .We saw “Sampson”.  It was well done and included live animals.  Lunch at 2:30 was at Miller's Smorgasbord.  We ate from the salad and bread bars.  Supper was at a diner. 
Back to the Amish View Inn for the night.   

Wed. April 27 – Breakfast at the hotel.  Went to Kitchen Kettle Village with over 40 specialty shops. 
Lunch at Diemer's Restaurant, which we really liked.  We drove around the Amish area during our time in the area and the Amish farms, there were Redbud treess in the woods and lots of Pink dogwood ( it seemed like most houses had pink dogwood trees), also azaleas lilacs and creeping phlox.  Supper was at the Plain & Fancy Restaurant (very good) by the hotel we stayed at and went through the gift shop there. 

Thurs. April  28 – Breakfast at the hotel. Left for home 9:15 a.m.  It rained and foggy in places.   Arrived home later that evening.
