Our Everyday Life

Sabbatical 2016. Road to Maine

Part 15 here
In the morning we visited another ice cream factory, Ben&Jerry’s. They claimed to make a yummiest ice cream in Vermont! We went to the factory tour, saw the production floor and funny advertisement video about factory. Also we ate a lot of ice cream. By the way, do you know that if you suggest a new taste to the factory and they will make a decision to manufacture it you will get a free ice cream lifetime?DAD_6434

We visited a taste grave yard too and saw a lot of tastes that are not manufactured anymore. Some of them were in production only a year, some of them – decade. And some have very funny names!IMG_20160704_152059

After the ice cream factory we went to the nearby lake for a picnic. Kids decided to ride a catamaran and swim and play in the water for a little bit.DAD_6443-Pano DAD_6444 DAD_6446
