Yesterday afternoon I watched Manhattan disappear through the side view mirror. We drove out of one city and into another- Philadelphia. Marissa started classes again today, so I took a trip down to Philly with her and my mom- to have her company for a little bit longer and to visit and shop at Wegmans (of course.)
Now that Marissa is back at school I think that means my vacation is over as well. November and December were insane, so I feel like I earned the break!
I hope the end of this vacation means the end of my workout vacation as well. Hm. I saw something on tv last night about how the people that go on "dancing with the stars" work out 8 hours per day.. 8 HOURS in one DAY. I think my body would seriously protest. I guess I've done 8 hour hikes, but that doesn't seem nearly as awful. An 8 hour hike actually sounds wonderful. I wish the idea of hiking in 20 degree weather didn't sound like torture to me. Yes. If I lived closer to the mountains and in a warm climate I would be in amazing shape. Shoot.

Ohhh panny-cakes...so tasty, and yay for Philly! I like it there for the most part. 8-hour work outs are pretty darn intense, btw, so uber kudos to those hikes! I wish I could hiking right now too, alas, snow has hit western PA like whoa lol!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment on my post the other day too, Sarah! I know I can sound like a pessimist sometimes, but I really do try to balance out hope and reality. :) (you just always have to remember the former!)
awesome awesome pictures!!
ReplyDeletenice pics! i like the side mirror one the best! it is very lonely without you and mom here :( but i had so much fun over the past couple of weeks and will brush up on my harry potter trivia so we can go head-to-head next time i'm home. oh and i'm ready to get back to working out too. hahaha
ReplyDeletehahaha! 1. 8 hrs/day is a job. 2. hiking in 20 degree weather would be miserable. 3. where can we move that has mountains but doesn't get "too" cold??
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you had a fun trip! I love your aeroplane ring, and those pancakes are making me hungry :)

ReplyDeleteI really would love to drive down to Philly, but im not too sure my car will make it. haha! Hope you had an awesome break, you deserve it!
