Lancaster_PA_Day1 (33)You can say what you will about the Amish, but you can’t say they don’t have a sense of humor.  How could you not have a sense of humor when you name towns Intercourse, Bird-in-Hand, and Blue Ball.  We started the day driving around Bird-in-Hand then we went to Intercourse, PA.  We went on a horse drawn carriage ride around Intercourse before visiting some of the local shops.  We ate some of the best home made ice cream we have ever eaten.  We left Intercourse and went on a Northern Amish Countryside tour.  We saw a lot of the covered bridges that Melinda has read about in her Amish books.
