Amana Colonies

We arrived Amana Colonies and stayed at an RV park that is huge, level, and quiet.  The next day we visited the shops and restaurants in this quaint village. We always visit the furniture shop which has furniture handcrafted from beautiful hardwoods.  This year it was interesting to see that they are now
showcasing more contemporary furniture designs.

We also visited a toy store which had a wide variety of toys from the past.  No computer games, or electronics.  It did have wooden blocks, stuffed animals, and "Dick and Jane" readers.  What a pleasant change.  

Had a coffee and lunch at Ronneburgs which had delicious German food.  After lunch we saw houses that were covered with vines.  We found out they grow grapes on their houses which they later harvest for wine.
