On Friday morning, we actually slept in a little bit. I think everyone was exhausted from all the fun! I had to get ready and head quickly down to breakfast while Ryan and the girls got ready because I had a wonderful treat awaiting me: a cocoa bean polish treatment at Hershey Spa! What a fantastic way to start the day. I smelled a little like chocolate for the whole day; not in an obnoxious way, just a lovely light scent. I would love the chance to go back and spend a whole day (or a few...) at this spa.
I met everyone else back in our room afterwards, and we finished packing everything up. We checked out of the hotel and decided to head back to Hershey Park for the morning since the tickets were included in our package. When we walked in, this young man was showing off this black snake which is one of the things to see at the zoo. The girls enjoyed watching it slither all around him.
One more spin on the carousel was in order.
The girls enjoyed some of their favorite rides again. We rode the Music Express several times too; they couldn't get enough of it!
We also made an appointment to meet Diego the sea lion which was really neat!
Just before 1, we were all getting hungry and tired. We decided to go back over to the World of Chocolate for another yummy meal. The girls discovered this fun game where you "throw" kisses into the different slots. They had fun with this.
Getting kisses by the Kisses.
Crazy candy in the gift shop.
Finally, we decided to head out. We said goodbye to the kiss shaped lights and headed back to Michael and Jenn's house to spend our last night.
On Saturday morning, we got up, returned the rental car and arrived at the airport. We ate breakfast there, and then the girls were quite happy to play in the airport's playground (inside, right by the Delta gates - perfect!) for almost an hour until it was time to board. We had a nice flight back, picked up our bags and headed home. I think it's fair to say the girls were worn out!
Of course, all good things must come to an end at some point. This was such a fantastic family vacation. Ryan and I agree it was better than we could have expected. The girls were simply awesome, the weather cooperated, the food and treats were yummy and we were able to just have fun together. I love making memories like this, and I'm so grateful we took this trip!
