Down to the real highlight of the day, New Hope. A town none of us have been to in quite some time, if at all. Right along the Delaware River on the PA side, which completed our coast to coast requirement. The streets were packed with hippies and yuppies, bikers and hikers, drunkees and monkeys. No really there was a monkey. But the number of fascinating shoppes to explore and good food to be eaten is immeasurable and we had empty hands and stomachs to fill.
All my parents wanted to do was eat on the water, which isn't the easiest request to fulfill on a busy weekend as such, but we managed to sneak in after a short at The Landing and enjoyed quite the delicious late lunch/early dinner. I pounded a few lemongrass and chamomile beers and Laura drank a couple mojitos. Fancy. Also tasty was the chicken milanese and brie & ham sandwiches we split. I think we need to stock up on some more lingonberry sauce.
And what Estler gathering is complete without a little ice cream. The answer is none. And Yuula got to try everyone's ice cream. I smell a sugar rush.
The ice cream parlour had questionable decor.
Exhausted, we headed back to the cars but not before we let the kids burn off their ice cream. Activities included offroading, double toddler flinging, railroad rock collecting and hug aversion.
Nice day. Nice family. Happy anniversary again Mom & Dad.
Now what do we do for 41?
PS: about 35 seconds into the ride home...
