Visit Leavenworth 

We had a full-day excursion to Leavenworth , the Bavarian Village in the central area of the State of Washington. We got on an RV and left for Leavenworth early in the morning. .

After driving for a little over two hours and a half, we finally reached the village. We saw many German style buildings with pretty shops. We first spent a little time looking around a beautiful Christmas shop, and then had lunch at a pretty German restaurant, enjoying some German sausageswhich tasted so good. After lunch we looked around some interesting shops, including a funny hat shop, a small toy store, a candy store, and many more shops. We bought some souvenirs for our host families as well as for ourselves and our families in Japan.

We spent the whole day shopping around, and even dropped by a store that sold local farming products on our way back. We had a very good tour that day.
