Lancaster - Amish Country

Last weekendI went with my friend for a 3-days trip. On First day we went to Duch Country in Pennsylvania.

Lancaster is one of that places, where Amish people live.
They are often best known for their simple living, plain dress and their resistance to the adoption of many modern conveniences.
They do not use electicity at all, but some Amish families have non-electric versions of appliances, such as kerosene-powered refrigerators.
No phones, it is an intrusion into the privacy and sanctity of the family. Amish of Lancaster County use the telephone primarily for outgoing calls, with the added restriction that the telephone not be inside the house, but rather in a phone "booth" or small out-building placed far enough from the house as to make its use inconvenient. These private phones may be shared by more than one family.
No cars (they use buggys - pulled by horses)- Although most Amish will not drive cars, they will hire drivers and vans, for example, for visiting family, monthly grocery shopping, or commuting to the workplace off the farm — though this too is subject to local regulation and variation. The practice increases the geographic reach of the Amish, and decreases isolation: a horse can travel only about 25 miles (40 km), and then it must rest for a considerable period, restricting the Amish to a radius of 12.5 miles (20.1 km) from home. Moreover, a horse and buggy can only sustain 10 mph (16 km/h) over an extended distance, and thus is impractical for emergencies. Regular bus service between Amish communities has been established in some areas, and train travel is accepted.
There is a lot to be wrote about amish people much more then I propably know. For those of you who have never even heard about those people, such amazing in certain way, I hope I interest you a little bit in it.
