Note: Hersheypark was closed due to a “private event,” so I was forced to make due with other activities. This attraction, which is connected to the northern end of the park was ALSO hosting a “private event” (a child’s birthday party), but it was still open to the public. This made getting close to the various enclosures difficult at times, but I was more upset that their restaurant wasn’t open yet.

Note: I could not get into the park due to a “private event,” so I was forced to make due with an EXTREMELY crowded Chocolate World (as it was raining on/off outside all day). Home to the only theme park ride where you enter through the gift shop.

Though it should be noted that HCW prides itself on being the “Largest Hershey Store in the World.” Their food court (not pictured) is somehow worse than the cafeteria at the All-Star resorts!! There are definitely worse ways to spend a rainy park day.
