Philadelphia




Okay so the city of Brotherly Love is not so loving. We have all been impressed with how nice the people have been wherever we go. This was NOT the case here! It was still pretty cool to be there though. We got a swift and strong rainstorm--so I looked like a rat for most of the day...ahhh ya win some ya lose some. ;) The Constitution Center was pretty cool. There was a 360 presentation that was pretty cool. The lady got mad at me about Ryan's wheelchair though ;) The Liberty Bell was cool. I expected it to be a lot larger though. Oh and bought food from a street vendor! That was exciting. Usually I am too nervous to buy food prepared in a shack like so but Phillie cheese steak--definitely worth it!

So we were at the Laundromat (which was kind of weird for me to do my laundry coed...ehhh) and while stuff was drying Ryan and I went to the grocery store next door. I was carrying his stuff (he is the kid on crutches) and once we got our clothes and were getting on the bus I put his quart of milk and ice cream in my bag. Well we drive back to the hotel and I get upstairs and tell him I will bring the stuff to his room. Only then I realize that I don't know where his milk went. (Please keep in mind that by this time I have already lost my debit card and camera) so I am kinda freaking out cause this time I lost someone else's stuff. Well then I get Tom (who is conviently our bus driver's son) to help me go see if it is on the bus. (I can imagine it tipped over in the bus leaking forever leaving the smell of Moldie Oldie.) So after about ten minutes and a trip back into the hotel we finally get into the bus and discover that the milk is not there. I am completely embarrassed because not only have I lost his milk but I have recruited another kid into helping me find it. So I guility go up to his room and confess. As it turns out he had grabbed it out of my bag and drank it on the bus. I was real embarrased at that point. Okay maybe this is one of those anti-climatic "you had to be there stories)
