Day 1
Today we depart for our holiday getaway in Cambridge, Ohio. After checking-in to the Comfort Inn, we will depart with a guide for a driving tour of Cambridge, followed by dinner at Mr. Lee's American Restaurant.
Day 2
Our day of guided touring will begin at Mosser Glass where we will view unique handmade pressed glass products. Then we stop at Kennedy's Bakery, a Cambridge landmark since 1925. Next is the National Museum of Cambridge Glass. In production from 1902-1958, this is where the world's most extensive collection of Cambridge Glass is housed in addition to the molds, tools, and equipment used to manufacture handmade glassware. We'll spend the afternoon at Dickens Victorian Village…a touch of old-world England. You'll see 180 life-like figures stationed along Wheeling Ave at lamp posts, benches, and in store windows, depicting society at that time. Each life-sized mannequin is hand-crafted, painted, and dressed in period clothing to provide an authentic Victorian look. We end our day of touring with a visit to Guernsey County Historical Museum, which houses a coal mine display, one-room schoolhouse, Veterans display, and thousands of photos of Cambridge & Guernsey County and the region. Dinner and musical entertainment will be included at Theo's this evening.
Day 3
Our guide will join us before we head to Dresden & Co. - a small business looking to enrich the lives of their customers through handmade baskets, modern farmhouse décor, and home organizing essentials. We'll head to Historic Roscoe Village which will be decorated for the holiday season. Lunch will be included at the old Warehouse Restaurant. Built around 1838, this building was used not only as a warehouse for canal cargo, but also as a general merchandise store. Next is a tour of the Old Main Street Museum followed by dinner and a show featuring holiday music.
Day 4
We depart for home with arrival by late afternoon.
