Heading South

We're on our way to the snow belt...I mean, Maryland. Heh. Hubby's "Doctor Who" buddies are in from Australia, so the gang is gathering at their parents' home once again.

We started off with a short drive Thursday afternoon, to take some of the load off the long haul, going down to our favorite Courtyard by Marriott in Waterbury, CT. They put us on the 9th floor this time, overlooking the hillsides on the I-84 side.

We had a very special dinner at N's favorite place for special occasions - Diorio Restaurant. http://www.diorios.com/.

Driving day

I drove through NY, NJ, DE and finally made it to our destination in Maryland 6.5 hours later. ( Read more... )

A good day all around.
