Hi, friends!
I hope you had a fun weekend- I sure did. Friday was pretty basic- dinner, Shark tank, fall asleep on the couch #oldlady. But Saturday, SATURDAY was fun!
Like any good weekend, brunch was involved, and like any good meal, it was a Groupon! Woohoo! We love Groupon. I found the Groupon on Friday, and when we were driving there Saturday, all we saw at the “location” were apartments and then we saw that the Groupon said “#A2” so we were all “….this is in someone’s apartment?”, but when we called, they said we had the wrong address. All was well and we found the place and the food was decent and I love brunch with Russ. The end. And here is the link for Bernie’s Pub Groupon if you want a relatively inexpensive brunch. Who doesn’t? Russ and I went to the Spruce Street Harbor Park with the Brunch Bunch, aka Ancy and Chris aka our favorite double date couple (hey, guys). Luckily, the rain let up and made for a really nice & cool night- perfect for the beach?!
Before Saturday, we hadn’t heard of this pop up park, but basically it’s a pop up beach/ park down at penny’s Landing off of South Street. There are pretty lights, hammocks in the trees, food trucks, relatively cheap IPAs, beach chairs, picnic tables, and boardwalk games during the day.
I think my face just looks like that naturally.
(I We got there around 10, got ourselves some brews (a PBC Walt Whit for me, and a Yard’s Brawler for Russ) found a table and sipped/ chatted/ had strangers take pictures of us. The walk home led us to the #BigChair… And to WaWa for requisite WaWa Fest sandwiches for some pre-sleep fuel. Necessary.
In the morning, we walked past the Philadelphia Magic Garden and Russ told me to “Be a lion!” …and then we had brunch (omelets made by Russ, toast made my yours truly. Dad joined in on the fun, too)
Definitely a lot of fun and I really hope we have one more opportunity to get down there! What did you do this weekend?
