Can’t believe that January came and went without a single post. I know I was busy, but should have been able to find some time to write.
I survived the Super Snow Storm of 2016. Go upwards of 2 1/2 feet of snow which is finally melting away. I actually enjoyed the storm as it happened from Friday night to Saturday night so did not really cause any issues with getting to or from work. Here are a few pictures:
Before the storm, I was able to take a trip with the family to New York City. Went to see ” ” on Broadway with the great George Takei. I really enjoyed the show. It was very entertaining as well as very powerful as it told the story about what it was like to be one of the 120,000 Japanese Americans who were placed into U.S. concentration camps during World War II.
After the show, we put on our tourists hats and headed to the Hard Rock Cafe in Times Square for a very nice dinner. Also visited the M&Ms store and the Disney Store. All and all it was a great day
After the storm we took a trip to the city of brotherly love (Philadelphia). Spent the weekend in the heart of the city. Visited several museums on Saturday and then met my cousin, her husband and daughter (as well as another cousins daughter) for a lovely dinner. Was great to see them and catch up as I don’t see them as much as I should. On Sunday went to see the Liberty Bell and Constitution Hall. Was really neat to see all the American history right in the middle of a major city.
While there also took a few trips to the Reading Terminal Market and had a world famous Roast Pork and Broccoli Rabe sandwich from DiNic’s.
Was as good as advertised. Highly recommended if you get a chance.
Was another great weekend and would recommend you check out Philadelphia if you have the opportunity. Lots to see and do
Sunday is the Super Bowl. Will be watching but don’t really care who wins. Been a great few weeks of not paying attention to sports or sports radio and instead just relaxing listening to music and catching up on some TV shows.
Only a few more weeks to both Survivor and The Amazing Race. Really looking forward to both to take me through the rest of winter and into spring.
Hope everybody’s 2016 is off to a great start and will write more soon
