It's a Wonderful Day in the Neighborhood

Not our neighborhood though...hehehe... We ended up heading out to the other side of town to the Freemason District of Norfolk and enjoyed a nice walk down the cobblestone street (original since 1700s) and walked down to the marina for some nice scenic views of the Elizabeth River. It was getting extra gloomy outside so we hurried with our picture taking and just as we were ready to head back to the car, it started pouring! I was soaking wet and lucky me I was wearing white pants! Or unlucky me..which ever. Let's just thank god I was wearing underwear;)

I was a little sad our walk had to be over so soon, but we did make it to Machismos in time for some yummy burritos! I swear, their burritos are the biggest I've ever seen. No joke, it was as big as my head. If I wasn't so ravenous and didn't eat that damn thing in 4 minutes, I would've taken a picture just to prove what the biggest burrito in the world looked like..haha! I felt like a total pig when Zach got stuffed from just 1/2 the burrito and I had already eaten all mine, but that's cool.

The rest of the afternoon was spent in a food coma. Basically I was immobile and just ended up falling asleep to the sound of vuvuzela horns coming from the futball game. Just so everyone knows, I refuse to say soccer, just based on principal...why are American's so smug about being so different? Also, I embrace my English heritage by spelling the word Gray...as Grey. And if I could get away with it...I'd switch all the mileage signs to metric measurements. Alright, this is nonsense...but that's just me being me!

  1. You are nuzzling up in my heart, Daily. I'm NOT English, but I write GREY. Probably because I read a lot as a kid, and that's how it was spelled in the books I read, or maybe, the word just looks better: grey. Speaking of looks, you look summer fabulous in the while slacks and hat! So old school East Coast. And those cobblestones are terribly photogenic too. Why do we travel on concrete again? Ah yes, progress.

  12. Yes! Agree with all of the above, very flattering pants on you! White pants are hard to pull off but you totally nailed it. I wish I had the courage to try white trousers. :)
