Girls Before

Leaving for Europe!! :D we're so happy, but little did we know we won't be showering for 2 days..

So we arrived in Philly on Sat morning at like 8am. Since our flight was at 6pm that night, we decided to take our ultra long layover time to explore Philly!! We took the train to Central Philly and searched for Philly Cheesesteaks, BUT it was breakfast time so we ate at this huge marketplace area and had breakfast at one of the stands inside. We were all super tired, and had all our carry-on items with us, so we decided to sit and hog the tables for a good amount of time while we played cards with Eddy's soggy cards. We then decided to take a carriage ride around Historic Philly!! The horses smelled, but we chose to ride the prettiest white horse. His name was Carter 😊 haha. After that, we went to sit inside a nice air-conditioned shopping center.. took some RANDOM, weird pictures, napped, and talked. We then walked like 6 blocks with our SUPER heavy carry-ons all the way back to the train station, but we DID buy some Philly Cheesesteaks at the marketplace again and it was yummmmmers. Grace and I shared one called "the works"- with mushrooms, swt peppers, onions, steak and cheeseee

group pix on the train!!

(though it was dumb of us to leave it unopened during the 20 min train ride back to the airport.. so it got all soggy). We met Britney at the airport in Philly, and then went to exchange our US bills for some COLORFUL Swiss Francs..

Highlights/Funnies of the Day:
-"Sweeriously?" "Swedish?!" (I meant to say sweet and seriously!! -_-")
- Grace and her 4 strikes- being late, not making photos of her passport, almost losing her passport, getting in trouble by security for not taking out her laptop (all while we were still in LAX)
- Eddy taking "ugly" pictures of each of us for his ugly (he means beautiful) album
- Steph disappearing EVERYWHERE we go!!
- Seeing someone getting arrested in the Philadelphia Airport

ANYWAY, the pictures speak for itself..
