We took a train from NY to Philly. Our friends initially thought they could drive us to Philly on the way to a wedding. Plans changed so we took the NJ Transit. The tickets were about $20, so that should have given us an idea of the comfort level we could expect. We squeezed into some seats that had another row of seats facing us. We quickly became friends with the two ladies in those seats as our knees touched and we had to do some adjusting before we all settled into our seats. The ride was long...
When we arrived, we checked in to our comfy hotel. We rested up a bit and then took a taxi to Philly's Party on the Parkway. We walked around and found a place to buy Philly cheesesteaks and fries. We had great expectations as we found a great cheesesteak place last time we were in Philly. However, the ones we had that night were greatly disappointing. We watched the parade and then it was time for funnel cake and a diet coke. By that time, the rain came down hard so we ended up taking a nice long walk back to the hotel. We hung out at the hotel and watched the fireworks on TV while listening to them outside our window.
The next morning John and Patty picked us up on their way to the New Jersey shore.
