ONLINE VACATION
LEAVENWORTH, WASHINGTON, USA
12/15/13
Hi Everyone. Today's trip takes us to the far west coast. We are
headed to Leavenworth, Washington.
Leavenworth is a city in Chelan County, Washington, United States. The
population was 1,965 at the 2010 census. The entire town center is
modeled on a Bavarian village.
Leavenworth was officially incorporated on September 5, 1906. The city
struggled until 1962, when the city was transformed into a mock
Bavarian village to revitalize its economy.
Leavenworth is home to the Leavenworth Nutcracker Museum, which opened in
1995 and contains more than 5,000 nutcrackers dating from prehistoric
to modern. Leavenworth hosts an annual Oktoberfest celebration. In
November 2007 Good Morning America went to Leavenworth for Holiday
Gifts for the Globe where GMA helped light up the town for the
Christmas Holiday. Leavenworth was also named the Ultimate
HolidayTown USA by A&E.
January is normally the coldest month with average temperatures between
19 and 34 degrees Fahrenheit. July is normally the warmest month
with average temperatures between 48 and 82 degrees F. December tends
to be the rainiest month with an average of 5.2 inches, and a yearly
average of 26.2 inches of rain. December is also normally the
snowiest month with an average of 38.8 inches, and a yearly average
of 124 inches of snow.
I hope you enjoy this very beautiful city, Leavenworth, Washington.
They have spectacular Christmas lights.
