Everyone loves a parade!

I decided against my better judgement to join the masses and go to the parade down Broad street last Friday. Being as slick as I am I figured I Would get on the train at a station at the beginning of the line, cruise into town, watch the parade from the beginning and cruise back out when it passed by before the millions of other people tried to get out.

Not so fast my friend.

That station at the beginning of the line had about 500 people waiting in line so what did we do? We took the bus! Yes the bus! What a concept huh? Taking my dads advice, we hopped the bus down to Broad & Olney, took the subway to Broad & Locust and got front row for the Parade! Then we hopped back on the subway with 6000 sweaty smelly people this time, and after a brawl at the McDonalds at Broad & Olney broke out we hopped the 22 bus back home! In terms of what a disaster it could have been - I give our plan a solid A - thanks to my dad.

Enjoy some pictures from the Parade!
