"If You're Ever In..." Travel Contest Winners!
for more information.
Congratulations to Shari Roth from Mt. Airy, Ga.! Shari won a Harley-Davidson Radio Control Motorcycle & Rider from RC2! Her special place is Babyland General Hospital in Cleveland, Ga.
"If you're ever in Northeast Georgia, take the time to check into Babyland General Hospital, the birthplace of the original Cabbage Patch Babies. Babyland General Hospital is located in Cleveland, Ga., north of Atlanta. There is no entry fee to tour the hospital.
"Mother Cabbage gives birth to a Cabbage Patch baby several times a day. Children are invited to watch the magical entrance these babies make and are asked to name the baby after it is born. It is the perfect place to spend an hour with your little ones. My son is 3 1/2 years old, and we went twice this summer. He loves to go there and see the new babies, to visit the preemies in the incubators and to play among the 'kid size' Cabbage Patch Kids. There are many opportunities for a great photo of your child!"

Congratulations to Donna Taishoff from East Northport, N.Y.! Donna won a Sinbad Legend of the Seven Seas DVD! Her favorite place is Old Bethpage Village Restoration in Old Bethpage, N.Y.
"If you're ever in Old Bethpage, N.Y., you must make a stop at the Old Bethpage Village Restoration located on Round Swamp Road in Old Bethpage, N.Y. This is a quaint place of history.
"The restoration is a 19th century Long Island village on a huge property. It is terrific to bring the family to see how life was in the earlier days. There is a blacksmith shop, general store, one-room schoolhouse, hat maker, homes, farm with animals and much more. There are people dressed from that time who are eager to share the experiences of that time. They offer so many events throughout the year, such as baseball games of that time and candlelight walks during the holiday season.
"It is a wonderful place that I grew up seeing through my school years. I now enjoy taking my family back over and over to see how people lived many years ago. This is the place I would bring my family and friends when they come to visit. It is my recommendation if you are ever in Old Bethpage."
