A brief stop in Lancaster

Sorry I missed a night....bad internet connection makes it very frustrating...but we are back. We left Niagara and had a very long day on the bus driving to Lancaster, Pennsylvania. It was wonderful to have a quick look at the Amish way of life but sadly I did not get the time to see more - especially the quilts......we might have to go back one day. So here a few scenes.
A beautiful sunrise in Niagara as we said farewell to the falls........
The landscape started to change......



 Gerry our driver has the most amazing selection of ties......very appropriate for our day ahead......

 We had a brief visit to an Amish farm and here are the men on one side and the women the other as they would do for church in someone's home........we have a lot more girls on this trip!


 The girls clothes for different occasions.....






Girls bedroom....
and the boys  bedroom and even with rollerblades!!









 An Amish farm.......
and a very quick view of a buggy on the road (my camera battery died so this is all I got!).....
We arrived in Washington DC for late lunch.......
 and a quick walk down Constitution Ave to the Museums......




 This house is an amazing optical illusion......


















It is way past my bedtime so more tomorrow.....
