A Day in Leavenworth With the Family
Great town! Reminds me of the Danish town in CA, Solvang, but with less snow.
ReplyDeleteHi Gerry! Thanks for visiting! I haven't been to Solvang, will have to look that one up! Lisa
ReplyDeleteWhat a neat town! I can't believe the poor town goes from 2,200 people to over 50,000 - it must be busting at the seams!
ReplyDeleteI know it does get packed! But they love the business it brings to the town. So glad you stopped in Christina!
ReplyDeleteSounds like such a fun place to visit! Nice way to get into the Christmas spirit!
