Day 1:
Stockton, Elizabeth and Galena
Explore along historic Hwy 20 and make a pit-stop in Stockton, to strike-a-pose in front of the vibrant murals that scale the downtown buildings. Slay that sweet tooth with a visit to Sweet Alice’s for bag-your-own-candy and hand-dipped salted caramels, made in-house.
Make your way to the Village of Elizabeth and fuel up at E-Town Coffee Co., offering mouth-watering panini sandwiches, crisp salads, fresh coffee and a boutique wine room. Situated right in the heart of town, it’s a perfect location to stroll the town for a bit of shopping after lunch.
Continue on your romantic journey to Galena, to check into accommodations. Perched along the hillside, the Lamberson Guest House boasts some of Galena’s best views, not to mention a decadent breakfast and award-winning customer service.
Stepping onto Galena’s Main Street is like something out of a movie. Looking much like it did when President Grant strolled the streets, the buildings are now home to more than 125 independently owned businesses. The aroma of freshly popped gourmet popcorn, hand dipped chocolates and chargrilled burgers fill the air as you make your way in and out of exquisite boutique shops.
After dinner, be mystified by Galena's own Master Magician, P.T. Murphy! Murphy is known for his personable style, mischievous sense of humor, and sophisticated sleight of hand. In Galena Country, one good story always leads to another!
