French Creek

Hi, back again and this time in French Creek State Park for the Lantern Festival with family. We arrived in time to build a fire and kick back a little before dinner. Rest up, tomorrow is a bike ride to Hopewell Furnace!

View from the furnace at Hopewell Village

It was a really nice bike ride to the Village and interesting tour of the grounds. It was a great ride because it was all downhill!! Now we have to go back up hill to the campgrounds. Two miles never looked so daunting!

A quick respite and then to the lantern festival at the race track.

Sunset in Reading waiting for the festival to begin.
I can’t believe they let 20,000 people play with fire!!

For 20 minutes lanterns went up. It was a very moving event.
