Philly Trip
I went to Philadelphia yesterday with Chrysanthi (one of the choreographers/dancers from the ITP-Dance Collaboration). Nice town. It was nice to see the sky for a change, and the place was palpably at a much slower pace. Nice and relaxing. Had a nice dinner and hookah session at Shouk just south of South Street. You can see why some New Yorkers would move out here. Cheaper and still spitting distance to NYC.
The ride on the Chinatown Bus was interesting as always. The chitown bus is remarkably cheap (e.g. NYC to Philly return is $20) but it definitely isn’t Greyhound. So far on every trip I’ve taken the driver has stopped for gas in the middle of the trip (and NYC->Philly is only 1.5 hours). I’ve heard tales of gang warfare between the bus lines and drivers getting shot. The price is certainly right if you’re in an adventurous mood.
