vacate.

We started our trip in Philadelphia, Pa. I was a bridesmaid in my best friend’s wedding at the Downtown Club off Washington Square in the city.  It was a lovely wedding. We had quick trip, but that is not to say that we didn’t accomplish goals.  Before the hair appointments and wedding rehearsals, Andrew and I snuck down to South Philly and wandered through the Italian Market.  I ate my first Philly cheesesteak in Philadelphia — we went to Pat’s, not Geno’s.  Straight up with Whiz.  I expected aerated cheese, but what I got instead was a more viscous nacho cheese.  We walked row after row of tiny shops with fresh produce, Italian meats and cured hams, and tons of olives.  It was a part of Philadelphia I never think to visit, and we had a wonderful time.

Then we left for a week on Lake Winnespaukee in New Hampshire. 

Welcome!

This is a blog of Jenny and Andrew's adventures in the city. We live in Albany Park, Chicago, Illinois, and have decided to plot out and document our adventures. This blog was started Memorial Day, 2010 as a way to document our summer goals.
