I just got back from taking a trip down to Lancaster, Pennsylvania. We went to this HUGE buffet place. It was literally 2 or 3 times as big as those Old Country Buffet chains and had reallllllllly good food. I almost threw up from eating so much.
Then we went out shopping at some local place. They had a barn for the Amish to park their horse and buggy to shop. I think the store was owned/run by Amish people since 90% of the workers were Amish and spoke German from the sound of it.
I think it is nice that they live and don't bother anyone, yet it is wrong that they try to dupe the children into staying with their religion. They stop teaching kids after homeschooling till the 6th grade and don't teach any geography for the hope that they won't understand what the outside world has to offer. That's a bit odd to me.
I was looking at the one section where they sold Amish suits for men...they looked pretty leet actually ha. The suits were going for about $290 with an under vest. Their hats ran for around $35.
