Friday, the beginning of a long weekend for some people--have you planned out your vacation for this year yet? If not, try to include at least a long weekend at the Museum. There is so much to see/do in this area that it would be a treat for the whole family. Of course, you should begin your vacation with a visit to the Museum of Bus Transportation. Did you know that the Museum of Bus Transportation is located in the lower level of the AACA Auto Musuem which not only displays one of the nicest vintage car displays in the country, but is also the home of the Museum of Bus Transportation AND the Antique Motorcycle Club of America. The Motorcycle Club was added in the last half of 2008 and is a wonderful addition to the Museum. They are housed on the same lower level at the Bus Museum and feature 30-40 rare antique motorcycles! The Museum also houses a REAL roadside Diner! All this under one roof. Hershey, of course, is a premier location for a vacation with all the wonderful CHOCOLATE sites available.

Within easy driving distance is also the National Civil War Museum in Harrisburg (http://www.nationalcivilwarmuseum.org/index_1.php) which gives a unique perspective of this event by showing both the north and the south’s view of the war! So when you’re planning your 2009 get-away, plan on visiting the Museum of Bus Transportation in beautiful Hershey, PA (http://www.hersheypa.com/).

Our location is also only 40 minutes away from Amish Country and Lancaster County (http://www.padutchcountry.com/) which is full of wonderful attractions and shopping. If you are into transportation, a great place is Strasburg and all their Railroad related stops. ENJOY!
