Day 4

We were on the road by 7am in our sparkling white Chevy Malibu, heading away from New York onto Philadelphia

We did the poses in front of the Rocky statue and jumped up and down in front of the art museum in the fashion of Rocky Balboa – great fun. Funny what stupid poses we can do in these places and it's perfectly acceptable...to an extent.

And now on to the main event in Philadelphia. Philly Steak Sandwiches (Of course) The two most famous are Pat's shop and Geno's, who are conveniently placed opposite eachother. We had one of each and they were both good, but we thought Geno's tipped the scales slightly - the cheese was better.

Then we drove on to Baltimore for lunch No. 2: Crab cakes and soft shell crab at Jimmy's Famous Seafood. So so good. The crab cakes especially, 8oz. patties of pure perfection, big chinks of white meat in a creamy sauce, deep fried. Awesome. Our server, Anne, was really friendly, and she let us take a crab smashing mallet :D

We arrived at our hotel in DC around 7 - we had a fabulous room witch had not only a coffee maker but fresh beans and a coffee grinder as well! Dinner was a 'Whole foods' Market buffet which was surprisingly good, pulled beef brisket, Texas chili and pork with cannellini beans. The Texas chili was especially good, really spicy.

That's all for Day 4, tomorrow we do the sights of DC, should be fun!
