STYLE LUNCH • MIRACLE OF
CHRISTMAS:
This morning we leave the
hustle and bustle behind and travel to
a land of much simpler time, Lancaster
County, Pennsylvania. Lancaster County
is home to one of the largest Amish

Upon arrival, we enjoy a delicious, family-
style, Amish lunch. Be sure to visit the
bakery and gift shop. At Sight & Sound

ever told with the production of Miracle
of Christmas. We're surrounded by the
village of Bethlehem as camels, horses,
donkeys, and villagers pass by and then
to the hillside where legions of angels
proclaim, "the Savior is born!" We overnight
in Pennsylvania. (L)
