I have gratitude today for...
* walking to Reading Terminal Market for an early lunch. We walked around for a while and then split an Italian sausage with peppers & onions at DiNic's. I kind of wanted the roast beef but the sandwiches were so big that we were better off splitting one. They were packed and everything looked amazing! We didn't know they're known for their roast pork or we would have tried that. Next time!
* visiting the historic area of the city towards Old City. It's hard to believe I've lived so close to Philly this long and never done any of this stuff. We did the Liberty Bell tour and the Independence Hall tour as well. I was impressed all of these exhibits are free--I think it's great that anyone can come and see such historical sites. 
* asking for a late check out at the Le Meridien, we didn't have to check out until 4pm. We watched some football and most of the first episode of Season 3 of Damages. 
* finishing up our time in Philly by going to the City Tap House on Penn's campus. It was awesome! They had a great beer selection and the food was very good too. The rooftop deck was closed for an event but we'll definitely have to go back. 
* a relaxing evening at home. I watched a few episdoes of Grey's and then we watched the new Newsroom and the end of the Dallas/Giants game. 
* a really great weekend! We went to new places and did some new things. I really enjoyed walking around the city and our mini-golf outing on Friday. Of course our meals at The Palm, Reading Terminal Market and City Tap House were all really good and a lot of fun.
