Part 2: My Trip to Virginia

The next day, my friend and I checked out Thomas Jefferson's Monticello. I'd always wanted to go. The house tour was informative and the grounds were so beautiful and well-kept. The history was eye-opening! The house had a little snack shop and their chocolate ice cream was good stuff!

Cafe at Monticello was also impressive with the variety and quality of food. Mmm, the lemon bars!!!

I was super impressed with the Shops at Monticello. They had everything from sweet potato butter to pottery to flower plants and seeds grown at Monticello. Oh, and the sweet potato butter is so good!

Time at Monticello was well-spent and a step into the past.
