Philadephia Day One




Hi everyone- this is Diane, guest blogging for Jen with an update on the trip to Philly and our first day. Will try to keep you posted this weekend's events!

The ride was eventful especially driving with Pete and RePete. Jen and Rick fought with Ms. Garmin all the way down. Listen to her, don’t listen, listen now. To be honest I was trying to find the volume on them. In the end we listened to her and had to pay $1.25 to get off the highway and then back on. I think that pushed them over the edge.

We went to a cool diner for lunch in Oakland, NJ. Then we got back in the car and we just 'stayed left' and made it to our hotel. Very nice hotel, Holiday Inn express downtown Philly.

We checked in got freshened up and went to Fado (the Irish Pub) in Philly- only a few blocks from hotel. We got dinner there and a few Guinness 250 drinks. Christine met us there. They have Pub Quiz, trivia night, which was fun. We were the 3 watters and a worta. (water in Boston and Philly) We thought we were the best! That is all that really matters.

Jen went to Christines’ for the night. End of a nice day.
