Lancaster Pennsylvania Travel Diary
Ever since we moved, it feels like life has been moving at warp speed! Between the holidays and the girls’ birthdays, we’ve been so busy and our family was ready for a change of scenery. We had the best weekend in Lancaster County, PA! Located only 2.5 hours from the NYC, Lancaster truly has something for everyone to enjoy!
One of the highlights of our trip was our experience at Strasburg Railroad, America’s oldest continuously operating railroad! #sponsored During our 45 minute steam train ride through Lancaster County’s bucolic Pennsylvania Dutch Country, we were greeted with so many festive surprises! As we traveled through 2,500 acres of the picturesque Amish countryside, we met the train conductor, learned the history of the railroad, and got to enjoy live performances from French horn musicians and holiday carolers. This was a magical experience we’ll always remember!
Here’s a rundown of our itinerary. Don’t forget to SAVE this post for later!
