Philly Arrival

 Today was fairly nuts. Marie and I packed her car full this morning because she was bringing most of the food for this whole weekend. Then we headed for Philadelphia.

Anja flew home for the weekend from Boston where she is working, having graduated from college in December. Pam and Larry flew in from Florida. Mia is in college here in Philly so she just needed a ride across town. There are 8 of us in a fairly small townhouse. I managed to not take pictures of us actually doing things like eating a huge dinner, but we are good at hanging around.

Lots of kitchen help, but putting even three people in the room is a test.

We did play a game after cleanup, which I actually won! I'm usually dead last when this group plays this game. But I didn't even manage to get a picture with the cards out of the box.

I'll do better on pictures tomorrow, but we are going to add person number nine! Got a short walk in with David and Larry because of course, we needed just a couple more things from the grocery store. I'm always amazed at real grocery stores in urban areas.

I'm beat, but so is everyone else.
