| Together at last |
After 6 months apart, the family has finally been reunited in sunny Pennsylvania. I wouldn't classify this trip as a holiday per-se, given i'm only here for little over a week. But i can guarantee that i've thoroughly enjoyed the neglected-daughter-guilt treatment. And most importantly, catching up with my parents and Jeremy (who seems to have thankfully killed the dirty latin mustache)
Over the last 5 days i've discovered that Phili has quite a lot to offer. For one thing, there was the glorious 35 degree heat wave last week. Not to mention some sweet dutch colonial architecture (like m+d's new home) and an abundance of quaint little towns. There's Valley Forge, where we cycled through beautiful historical landscape. And of course the large amish population, though unfortunately we ran out of time to visit the communes over in Lancaster. Will have to say hi next visit. I did, however, have the pleasure of hanging out with the Abeshouses, as well as Janine and her sister Lauren, who i previously caught up with in Costa Rica.
So that's about it. Off to NYC tomorrow for a few days with mum. Think i'll definitely be needing extra time here next trip...
