A Week of Travel- Delaware, Philadelphia, and Wellsboro

It has been a very busy week for Eli and I! We started off last weekend driving to Rehoboth Beach Delaware (check getting to the coast off our list!). The drive there was about five hours, but it felt like it took so.long. Rehoboth reminded me of Daytona Beach--condos, seafood restaurants, and surf shops everywhere. We lucked out big time with the weather--it was sunny and in the 80s. We spent the whole day relaxing on the beach and exploring the boardwalk. Eli and I went out to a great seafood dinner that night too. Super fun!

Then we came back to Williamsport since I had to work a day and it was off on another adventure. Eli's parents came into town to visit and we headed off to Philadelphia. We took a bus tour where you get to sit on top of the bus, which was a great way to see the city. Of course we had to get an authentic cheesesteak, which was delish. My favorite part was going to the Penn Museum which as our tour guide said "If you like anything having to do with people you should go there." Artifacts from all over the world--Indiana Jones things is how Eli described it to me. There was a huge exhibit on Ancient Egypt complete with a sphinx and mummies--I find that whole time period and place so interesting.

After a few days in Philly we drove to Wellsboro PA which is north of Williamsport for a scenic train tour of the fall foliage. The colors were really great and again we lucked out with the weather. It's been really busy out here in PA--it's hard to believe we've been here over a month already--time is flying by!
