My wife & I are going to spend a week in Harisburg to visit our Daughter. I'm gonna take off 1 day & visit Gettysburg to get out of their hair. being 45min., away I feel I could spend a day there & get to see ALOT?

It's easy for the novice to get trapped into the hype of ads, go here, don't miss this, a MUST to see, & on & on.

Does any-one on this site know 1st. hand on what a 1 day trip should entail? Like attractions that aren't hyped up but a MUST SEE?

I've read numerous articles about the Civil War & watched many shows on the History Ch., Discover, etc.. But nothing compares to 1st. hand knowledge of an individual thats been there.

Thanks SO MUCH anything would be greatly appreciated.

Nik,


oh, I also contacted the visitors bureau, & requested what ever literature they can send.
