We were sooooooo lucky to have my friend Nicole visit for the weekend. And when I say friend, I mean best-friend-since-4th-grade friend. It's nice to have a familiar face out here. It was pretty cool having my West Coast life mix with my East Coast life! Thanks for making it out here Colie! Come back soon. We miss you.
Here are the things we did: King of Prussia Mall, Rita's water ice, Fairmount park, Germantown, Manayunk, Broad Street, Chubby's Cheesesteaks, pizza party with med school friends, Tasty Twisters Pretzels, Kelly Drive, Rocky steps, Comcast Building, Reading Terminal, Liberty Bell, JFK Park, Panera, and I think that covers the Philly stuff. OF course there were movies, hang time with Dean, and lots of talking, laughing, and catching up.
Here are the pictures of our City Saturday.
I need to get pictures of the other stuff from Nicole.

It was chillier than we thought it would be so Dean got Alex's jacket.

I spy...something weird.
Do you?

Yep. You got it.

Oh, and them.

Crazy right? The whole part of the wall that had video on it is a huge black screen. So when it turns to wood panels at the end, it's fake. Just a picture. Wish I would have gotten video of the ballet-dancing-office workers. That was a good one.

JFKennedy Park. Earlier this month, the fountain was dyed PINK for Breast Cancer Awareness. Sad we missed out on that!
You know all of those pieces missing from your board games?
We found them.

My Favorite.

Try fitting that in your Monopoly box.

Our friend at the Independence National Historical Park Visitor's Center.

"A thorn between two roses" he said.

What about this picture? Notice anything funny here?

And...last but not least. My favorite Philadelphia attractions.
