Family trip to Hershey and Pittsburgh

                   I generally like long driving in US high ways, just because you don’t feel tired and can take enough breaks to eat and drink. I enjoy the driving with lot of site seeings, hills, fast turns and slow turns during my journey to Hershey and Pittsburgh.


I drove with my family in a Toyota Camry (2007 model Tan) towards I81 south for about 4 hours 30 mins ( 256 miles) to reach “HERSHEY’S CHOCOLATE WORLD”. This is a great attraction for kids and family to see HERSHEY’S CHOCOLATE TOUR ride. You can also watch other attractions like theme park and others. But we had a plan only to see Chocolate world for kids and drove towards Pittsburgh for a night stay. 

I enjoy driving to Pittsburgh either from I79S or from I76W highways. While driving, we saw lot of hills, tunnels, beautiful farm housing lands can be seen during my 3 hours 14 mins ( 202 miles) drive to Pittsburgh.

In Pittsburgh we saw this time, Duquesne Incline “On a nice day, the view of the city and three rivers is priceless”. It was worth it to see the view and get a few photos of the city.”


We had a great day on Saturday morning Suprabhata seva in SV temple and visited Sai baba temple to finish Pittsburgh trip. We drove back through I79N to I90E to reach my home.

This is our second trip to Pittsburgh with in a year. This is one of my favorite place in US and i am logging off with some pictures from my trip.

On April 23, 2010 we went to the HERSHEY CHOCOLATE factory. First, we prepared food and ready with bags. Next, we started the car when we were driving we saw some farm houses and mountains and my mom took some pictures of them. Then we stop at a restroom and drove two more miles. Then we got to the Hershey. So first we went inside the CHOCOLATE world. We saw the people who made the chocolate bar. Also We went on a raid that tells us how they make the chocolate bar. Then we got out and went down couple of stairs. Moreover they gave us tiny chocolate bars. Then we brought a Hershey and Reeses pillows. Lastly we got in the car again and drove to a Hotel called HolidayInn and slept there and woke up the second morning got placed with our stuff. We went to the SVTemple and prayed the god. Also we went to the Sai baba temple and prayed there too. Finally we sat in the car and drove to home. I was so happy and had a great trip that i will never forget.
