Journal after5's Journal: Drinks responsibly. 2
Captain iPod (yes, the iPod actually has a name) and I would like to complement the excellent road performance of the Camry. I've been getting 33+ mpg and a range of 500+ miles from each tank full of blessed 87 octane. All that with a nice V6 of pure Japanese power. Mr Toyoda can have my babies. (yes, Toyoda)
Anyway, today I paid a visit to the great city of Charlottesville, VA. I would definitely not mind going back and spending a bit more time there. The downtown area has been made into a pedestrian only zone and paved over with crumbling red brick. It's basically a giant outdoor mall of nicely independently owned and operated stores and restaurants. No real chain stores to speak of. Ate dinner at Miller's Bar. It is a lot smaller and different looking than I had pictured, but the food was good.
It dawned on me that that was my first real meal since leaving Atlanta. Monday I had a bowl of cereal, and from that point on I've had a few grapes, a nectarine, and some bread with cheese. Don't get me started on the overpriced "continental breakfast" at Days Inn.
Drove through Washington, DC to Baltimore to stay with my Uncle for the night. Tomorrow we're going to tour Annapolis and then Baltimore. Probably get a lot of good food. My uncle knows how to live. I should get some good stories.
I'm worried about my time table. I think I'm not going to be able to do much of anything at my other stops. I'll barely have enough time to drive up to Maine and back to Atlanta.
Gotta figure out something, I'll work on that though.
A better update tomorrow, hopefully, this one was rather dull.
I'm here! (Score:1)
