I found home on the other side of the country. We went to visit Jacobs mom, (for the second time mind you) and I cant get enough of this place. Its like I know I am supposed to be there. Well sad to say I had to come back to Austin, and go to my job tomorrow. But at least I got some fun stuff taken care of in the mean time.
We get to philly and everything just smells different. I am in love my brain was telling me the whole time. So we go to the wholefoods and get some stuff and then we go to the beer store to get the Yeungling. This beer is soo bad ass to me. I made sure to have one everyday. (well i am pretty sure i had one everyday, that was my goal) We also went to the museum which was a blast. They have some really awesome stuff there. I must say the food was probably my favorite thing though. Horizons (pic 3) is probably the best thing that has ever happened to America. If everyone could eat like this daily they would all be vegan! But even for a vegan such as myself i have to give them 2 thumbs up and 5 gold stars. food was great, service was great, i left happy. I also got to eat a Giannas grills. (pic 11) Its more of a hole in the wall with the best mock philly cheese steak i have ever had. I could eat there everyday as well. Wish I could eat there everday. And then to top it off in the food department, we drove that 2 hour drive to Bethlehem Pa and had VEGAN TREATS! (pic 6) I ate so many sweets. They have the best vegan donut i have ever had. EVER.
We also checked out Jessops Tavern. (pic 8) That was a cool little place.
I also snapped a photo of this bad ass skate park under the highway. (pic 9) I could not get over how neat that was. I thouht that was a great way to use space and it just looks so damn cool.
Also dont forget to meet Thunder. Thats the beautiful horse up there in picture 5. He is Jacobs moms horse and the is lovely.
Whats a trip without me busting my ass? Well I guess this time it was more my knees and it hurt like hell. We were walking into the recording studio and I was telling some dumb story about my childhood when I failed to notice the root coming out from the ground. Next thing I know, I am crying like a 5 year old and trying to get over it. Im totally over it by the way.
All in all I love the place and cant wait to go back. I want a row house there asap! I will get there soon. I can feel it.
Dot missed us while we were gone but we made it up to her when we got back with wet cat food. She was mucho happy after that. She is doing good. Just being the little crazy ball that she is. I hate the idea of unpacking but its next on my list. lovelove.
