My coworker, Emma, who came from Taiwan to work in our office for 2 months told me the other day that she went to the Amish Country in northern Indiana one weekend. I was like, oh my gosh I have been living in Indiana all these years and I never went there myself. So 3 weeks ago we went there to check it out.

When people think about Amish Country in Indiana, they think about Shipshewana, but we happened to go to Topeka before going to Shipshewana, and found they have even more Amish people living there.
5. A buggy parked outside a harness and tack shop in Topeka. In case you have no idea what that means like I did, it is an equestrian supply store :)
6. A parking lot packed with buggies in Topeka. There was no car.
7. Road sign in Amish Country.
8. Best pretzels I've ever had. Make sure you get the Amish peanut butter dip.

Dave said we visited University of Notre Dame many years ago, but I completely don't remember. Anyway I heard their Basilica is really pretty, I thought it is good to attend our Sunday Mass there, so the next day we went to Notre Dame. The campus parking lady was very nice. After we told her we came for the morning Mass, she let us in and told us where to park.
