Philly again!

No room at with Rmh, most hotels booked. Luckily Rmh has several hotels they have room deals with, so we are in center city at the Hilton doubletree and it is beautiful! It was a long hot ride here in a car with no working A/c :(
But we are resting comfortably now :) had an awesome meal in the lobby bistro, just did FaceTime with the family and chilling.
Here is the outside


In the lobby- it is mezmerizing











So worth every penny :)


We see the dr first thing in the am and hope to be in the road by 10!

we picked out a spot and got to work

once we had it all lined up it came together pretty well, no yelling :)

 while we were busy with the swing set, the girls colored their workshop projects and were so sweet and  made us sandwiches :)

I hung them up and the girls were SO excited!!

Finally!! :)

Hit the beach and the water park again. Took showers and packed up. Dinner was at Silk Road restaurant and it was yummy!
