The beginning of November we started out to Philadelphia - I shopped at 30,000 feet of course.
During the course of our week with Elder Albert we did alot of touring - We headed out of Pennsylvania Tuesday morning toward Washington D.C. , went through a session at the temple (beautiful I might add) and toured Washington D.C. all day Wednesday morning and night.
Left there and drove to Harmony, PA where the Priesthood was restored and on to Palmyra, NY. We visited the Sacred Grove, Hill Cumorah, Farm of Joseph Smith and family, the Book of Mormon Publishing Site, Martin Harris Farm, and walked around the Palmyra Temple grounds. We left from there and drove to Peter Whitmer's home a short distance away. That was the end of our church history sites and we headed into NY City - a 5 hour drive.
After a good nights sleep Friday night we hopped on a Ferry to visited Ellis Island, Statue of Liberty and ground Zero. Thought we were going to die when the 3 of us got into a taxi and rode back under the Hudson River to our car but made it safely. On our way back to Philly for some sightseeing we drove through some of the areas Tyler had served in like Allentown and Reading.
Final mileage on the rental car was 1350, and I think we visited 8 states in all. We had a great trip and are greatful for Elder Albert's faithful service and the blessings he brought our family.
We had a few days rest so we decided to go to the happiest place on earth!!!!!
