had a beautiful lunch with some lovely ladies from a publishing company

restaurant was called spice market i think.

YUM!

and really, these ladies are awesome awesome awesome. i had a wonderful lunch with them

fat witch brownies!

(i enjoyed the one with dried cherries. hubby liked the mint chocolate and caramel ones i brought home or him)

i stayed with my friend c

while planning on meeting my sister for lunch the next day, i put out the subway map...

and what do you know but good ole' kitty said, "no! you shall not look at manhattan!" and laid right on top of the island.

i gave up and looked it up the next day because i know my place and i know his place and his place was on manhattan

and on my bed

lunch with my lil sis (though she's waaay taller than me)

really nice place near where she works

and what is a road trip south without passing by our fav place to eat:

and my teammate:

day 1

opening ceremony started at some ungodly hour like 6am, and the shuttle to the start was at 445am.

so with our bags in tow, and just a bit sleepy, we began with opening ceremony

there was a wall to write your goals. here is my friend placing her goal on the wall.

and a furry friend to support the walkers

and we're walking

rest stop number 2

making friends with the local police

finally, we arrive at camp to meet some lovely girl scouts who set up our tent as we retrieve our things

camp is on the beach

day 2

rain, rain, go away....

but it didn't

and we were drenched

finally going back to camp, we found our tent wet. very very wet. (and most of our belongings wet)

and decided to pack it up for the last night after hearing reports of another heavy shower headed our way.

and of course as we're getting ready to leave camp...

beautiful

day 3

amazing start

the front of the line

with the weather improving we passed by a man dressed up as a gorilla passing out bananas

and our first rest stop had wonderful beautiful delightful people giving us small cups of starbucks coffee and girl scouts handing out thin mints... HEAVEN

lot of oranges to prevent my fear of scurvy ;)

and some friends we met along the way

the melon men

you know who he is

cheerleaders

the men and women on motorbikes were our crossing guards and they certainly dressed up for the occasion

and finally closing ceremony- with our new t's

getting ready for the parade

what a night

a tribute to the survivors and the friends we've lost

hubby, and friends a and t met us at the end where we promptly decided to drink and eat some wonderful greasy food at the nearby chili's.

thanks to all that donated and gave us their support. it was an amazing experience.
