By the time we left Cooperstown, N.Y. and the Baseball Hall of Fame, we were a day or two behind our planned schedule. Our next night was supposed to be near Hershey, Pa., with a visit to the amusement park the next day. Instead we headed for my home in northeastern Pennsylvania where we regrouped and modified our itinerary for the rest of trip. We got up early the next day, drove to Hershey and spent a fun day at the park. There wasn’t time for the chocolate factory tour, but there was time for a stop at the Christmas shop on the way out of the park. We found a number of penguins.
The big ornament at the top was one of a bagful of penguins we found. It reminds of the film “March of the Penguins,” especially the part where the male emperors huddled together and slowly shifted positions to keep each other warm in the middle of Antarctica’s winter. The penguins go all the way around the bulb, which is covered all over with a frosty glaze.
