I visited there many moons ago so only have vague memories, I do remember counting the emu's on the Hay Plains that seemed to go on forever ;-)<br /><br />If you came to visit me I would have to say the Reef wouldn't I???

I guess the pictures of Marg's hands "count" as a picture of her! :)<br /><br />I don't really know where I'd take you - I guess out to our cabin in western PA, or to Phila to see some sights - or 2 hours south to Washington DC - or, like others suggested, to Lancaster and the Amish farms. Our hometowns is only known as the snack food capital of the world, but we do live about 2 hours from a lot of great places!Kirsten's Cookinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09129971420086685005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3678998574963856841.post-6564048611890759612011-04-16T17:39:29.315+09:302011-04-16T17:39:29.315+09:30Hi Shay

Then again, I might just have to make the trip to Adelaide so I can eat one of those Frog Cakes. Oh, and the chocolate shop looked amazing. What a lovely hostess you are!<br /><br />If you came to Utah, I'd probably take you to Temple Square. Their gardens are spectacular, and there is a museum adjacent to that with all kinds of 1840's - 1900's ish artifacts. It was actually a home, and it still furnished as such.<br /><br />And right here in my little town, I'd probably take you to eat at the Art City Trolley, which is a little trolley car that has been converted to a restaurant. They have the best salads. As a matter of fact, that is the only place I'll eat a salad. It's the dressing that makes it so good.<br /><br />Well, I've blathered on long enough.<br /><br />xo -EElizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07980461113595763030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3678998574963856841.post-4892714666765894412011-04-16T00:14:26.332+09:302011-04-16T00:14:26.332+09:30Now I wish I had saved up to come out there.
For ...Now I wish I had saved up to come out there.<br /><br />For me there are 3 places to take visitors.<br /><br />Greenwich Park, see the deer, rose gardens, observatory, planetarium, view over London and play on the meridian line in the ground and try and work out if you are in today, tomorrow or yesterday.<br /><br />For drinkers, a pub crawl along the south bank of the Thames from London to Westminster bridges. For none drinkers, the same walk but seeing things like The Globe and the Aquarium and London Eye.<br /><br />And lastly, the best museum in the world - The Victoria & Albert ie. the V&A.Shevvyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16597474715523695213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3678998574963856841.post-84053097826365958302011-04-15T22:36:41.528+09:302011-04-15T22:36:41.528+09:30To truly experience the town where I live, there i...To truly experience the town where I live, there is one restaurant everyone must go to. We take people there whenever they come into town for a visit. It's called Mellow Mushroom (or, "the Mellow"). It is the one place where you can see the three-piece suits mixing with the tatooed and dread-locked, the families with small children, pigeons (if you eat outside), the Senior Citizens and the teens. Everyone together in one place. They have great sandwiches, pizza, calzones, interesting art and artifacts on the walls, and, most of the time, good music playing over the loud speakers. Whenever anyone comes to visit, that's where we take them. It truly shows the mixing of subcultures in this town.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3678998574963856841.post-9719876462015694412011-04-15T22:09:42.522+09:302011-04-15T22:09:42.522+09:30OMG I didn't realise it was you in the naughty...OMG I didn't realise it was you in the naughty corner until I got home today and caught up with blogs on google reader! I was in the class at Hettie's last weekend too. I've followed your blog for the last year or so and laugh out loud regularly.

Then we would go to Lititz and wander through the shops with a stop at the Wilber candy factory to load up on dark chocolate. Lancaster County has vast numbers of family farms and the countryside is especially beautiful in the late spring and early summer.

I managed to gain 3 lbs. and totally ruin my crazy-ass diet. Thanks.<br /><br />I would LOVE to take you on a tour of Hershey, PA and return the <br />favo(u)r. And you would probably like Lancaster County and its Amish people who live and work as if it were still the 18th century. Lots of corn and cows here, so great ice cream. Maybe a trip south to Baltimore and the National Aquarium, too?<br /><br />Regardless of destination, we'd have fun and laugh so much we'd snort wine through our noses.vawriterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02776688234339103879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3678998574963856841.post-12443342360121044982011-04-15T12:54:13.549+09:302011-04-15T12:54:13.549+09:30Since you used to live here, I figure you've s...Since you used to live here, I figure you've seen most of it.
