Roadtrip Ramblings: Day 7 of 8

Today is the last day of Mommy's course! :)  Liam and I got up and took her to class, then ate breakfast and played at the local park one last time.  We picked Teri up around 2 o'clock and headed downtown to the Whitaker Center for Science and the Arts (part performing arts center/part children's museum).  We played quite a while in the Market Square, Historic Remodel, and Water Table areas of the kid space before leaving Downtown Harrisburg for the evening's adventure - Liam's First Trick-or-Treating!

Since we'll be traveling on Halloween and may not be back in time to go around the neighborhood (and apparently the day for trick-or-treating around here is always the last Thursday of October anyway) one of the ladies from Teri's class was very generous and offered for us to spend the evening with her family and let Liam go around their neighborhood with her kids.  We didn't think to bring his costume to Harrisburg, but this family had several in their dress up box to choose from, and Liam chose the chicken outfit!  

We had lots of fun watching him learn from following the other kids and have a great time.  All the walking wore him out and he slept a joyfully tired sleep when we got back to the hotel, which was perfect since Mommy and Daddy had to pack up so we can hop in the car and ride home tomorrow.

Roadtrip Ramblings: Day 4 of 8

Another great day in Harrisburg!  Liam and I dropped Teri off at class, got breakfast at the hotel, then went to the park for a loooong time today.  After eating lunch back at the room, Liam snoozed out in the car while Daddy explored the area further.  Anyone who knows me well knows I love the mountains, so it's no surprise that I love Harrisburg's geography with ridges encircling the city!

After class got out we picked up Teri and showed her Reservoir Park before eating dinner at the best Asian restaurant we've found while traveling.  The General Tso's Chicken was the most amazing I've ever had, the Crab Rangoons were made in-house,  and Teri's Egg Drop Soup was perfect!  After dinner we came back to the room and relaxed, enjoying family time, and everyone went to bed early :-)
