First Night in Philly

Those who remember our adventures at the Louisville tournament last year will not be surprised to learn that we found a hotel bar that features water (not the kind that you drink). There was other seating available, but Julie and I opted for fountain-side. We threw pennies and made wishes, tournament-related and otherwise, and enjoyed late night drinks and snacks.

In retrospect, we probably should have paid more attention to our room first. When we tried to go to sleep, we couldn't figure out how to close the heavy curtain that darkens the room. We awoke at 7:00 am to bright daylight streaming in and had to deal with the **** curtain then.

This morning we are looking forward to exploring the city with Julie's friend Marian, who lives about 40 miles away. First on the agenda: The Barnes Museum.
