Travel Log - Gettysburg, Pennslyvania

We decided to drive over to Gettysburg for lunch after we finished kayaking at the Pine Grove Furnace lakes.  It was too late in the day to visit the museums, so we had a wonderful lunch and strolled around town.

I had never been to Gettysburg and I found the town to be beautiful.  There are lots of historical buildings, restaurants and shops.  It's a very clean and inviting city.



We had a delicious lunch at the Pub and Restaurant on the square.  I'm a vegan and they had a great hot veggie wrap with fried potatoes.  So good.





After that we just wandered around.  We did go in one shop; Gallery 30.  This place was unbelievable.  Packed full of gourds made into every conceivable thing.  Plaques galore.  A huge selection of jewelry.  The store was really beautiful and we enjoyed walking through.  Unfortunately, everything in this store is very expensive so, for us, it was just a looking tour.




Many of the old houses are now businesses and have been restored and made beautiful.  I know I keep using the work beautiful, but this town is so pretty.  It was well worth a visit.
