Below is a panorama - The Photos below the panorama are mostly posted in order as seen in the below Panorama, starting with the small Iwo Jima to the left of the giant USA flag and ending with the white Shenandoah Caverns bus. The Pirate ship has already been posted, and the big limo is yet to come.

Again, the guide is still explaining stuff to Lee Duquette, while Karen Duquette wandered around taking photos. The two RV Gypsies were the only two people on this particular tour, but when they left, they saw that the next tour had a lot of people.

Below: Lee Duquette by the Iwo Jima statue - and then to the right side of that is the Statue of Liberty that is just before the giant American flag, of which a corner of the flag is in the Statue of Liberty photo.

Below: 2 photos - first, a close-up of the giant Chandelier. Then, below that photo is a panorama showing the giant Chandelier above The Iwo Jima Statue, Statue of Liberty, the giant American Flag and the Liberty Bell. Lee Duquette liked the chandelier because it reminded him of the giant one that he once hung at Epcot in Florida.

Below: Lee Duquette standing by the The Spirit of 76 statue located in the center of the floor just before all above photos. The guide had to leave to greet the next set of tour people, so the two RV Gypsies had the place all to themselves.
