Low Resolution Recap
I will, true to form, write a bit more of a recap of my trip out East in a moment, but for now I shall entertain you with some photos I took with my cameraphone while I was prancing around on the eastern seaboard. As one might expect, the resolution and quality of these photos is crap, but my wife wanted the digicam for taking pictures of some baby or something, I dunno what she was on about….
First up, some shots of the two Airbus 319 jets that I rode on, the first from MSP -> EWR, the second from PHL -> MSP. As some of you know, I *love* commercial airliners, so this is like aviation porn, minus that whole copulation thing:
Next, we have a glass of the “Wee Heavier” Scottish ale that I had at the Nodding Head Brewery in downtown Philadelphia which was, unfortunately, a wholly worthless experience. On Wednesday night I walked 12 blocks at 10:30pm to find this brewery and sample its wares to only be greatly disappointed and leaving after 2 tries. At least the walk was nice.
Next, some scenes from the inside of the Sheraton Philadelphia City Center hotel where I spent one night, a much nicer hotel than the Sheraton Meadowlands in East Rutherford, NJ, but still way overpriced for what you got.
A big-ass clock that they had in the lobby; it wasn’t even running, so it was impressive only in stature.
The dining area of the hotel where they served breakfast, mixed with a kabob of angst:
The entrance, complete with bellhops and smoking hobos:
The lounge with a baby grand piano outside. I thought about tinkling the ivories, but they would have fined me for it, I suspect:
The view of Philly from my hotel room; note the dirty windows and my shitty camera:
The view of the NYC skyline from my corporate offices — mmmm……Jersey:
A really shockingly bad photo of Manhattan at night, taken from the parking lot of the Chart House restaurant in Weehawken:
This, folks, is why memories are not captured with Samsung.
