Apple picking - Anderson Orchard

Anderson Orchard is located in Mooresville, Indiana. It offers apple/raspberry/plum picking in their seasons. We visited there in late August 2015.

We only visited Apple patches but I think raspberry picking also was available at the time. They provide bags in different sizes at a fixed cost and we can fill the bags to take apples home. Also, we are allowed to eat as much as we want while we are there.




Picking different kinds of fresh apples from the trees was a nice experience, specially for kids.

We had lunch from Mumbai grill in Greenwood, IN and headed back home.

Santa Claus, IN

Santa Claus is considered as a Christmas town, located in south Indiana. We visited there in Christmas, 2013. There are lots of Christmas events like parades, shows before Christmas but most of them were over when we visited.

Though the events were over, the most beautiful attraction "Land of Lights" was still on. It displays the story of Rudolph using thousands of LED lights. It was a really nice experience to drive through the land of lights.

Indiana Dunes

Indiana dunes, which is a shore filled with huge sand dunes, is situated in southern Michigan shore in Indiana. We were driving to Chicago airport to drop off my parents who were going back to Sri Lanka. We searched for a place to visit on the way and found this.



It was a cold and sunny day. The lake shore was really beautiful. Sad thing we couldn't stay out much longer due to cold wind.

French Lick

.
It was a one day trip to French Lick, IN in winter 2011. It was about 1 hr away from Bloomington, IN. We had fun in BIg splash water park in the morning.



It was a small sized indoor water park. Though it is relatively small, it is more than enough to have fun if you are with friends. It was a part of a hotel. If your group has 4 people or more, you get a room from the hotel. I think it is a great deal.

We had lunch from a nice Amish restaurant in the city. Then we headed to West Baden Springs hotel and to French Lick Springs hotel. These hotels offer tours but we couldn't get one because we were too late. Those were nice hotels and we spent some time to to look and walk around.
