Saturday August 9: trip to Lansdale and Yoga

After a decent sleep last night, I got up got dressed to hit a suburban party first we had to have breakfast and then I have to get my rental car. This new coffee shop that is right near. Mary says good coffee. Mary told me that the café has changed their coffee and it’s not good anymore. Went to this place is very popular very nice atmosphere with many younger folk. They have a Tour de France playing on a big screen, which is very interesting for sure. Next, we gonna walk to the café and eat breakfast and bring someone else’s coffee. Should be fun.well, we had breakfast and that was very good. I had my usual breakfast burrito, which is ultimately very tasty. We talked about stuff while we’re eating. One of them was about the term Californication. There was a Netflix series with the guy from David the Coneyand the Red Hot chili peppers sang a song called Californication so I was wondering if one fed off the other, but supposedly they didn’t. Just now 10:55 AM I just pulled up to the Dorchester after picking up the car picking up the car was easy. I just can’t make Car Apple Pay to work. Yeah, it seems like the less expensive cars don’t work well with Apple CarPlay and I even follow the instructions so I don’t know what’s going on but it’s a beautiful sunny day outside here and we’re driving up to Lansdale and I think we gave ourselves enough time to get there on time. We got there in plenty of time. We got there around 11:55 AM. Once we got there, we noticed we got there a little bit early, but it was cool. We went outside their large expanded backyard and sat at a table. We ended up hanging out with a few people and that was pleasant enough. It was the kids first birthday. They had a nice bread and had pictures of the kit each month before the first birthday. The kid was pretty cute. I must say. of course I took a lot of pictures and what not. I shared them with Mary. It actually was pretty chill atmosphere. I need anything but the fruit because I was pretty full from last night dinner and this morning breakfast at the café. They have plenty of shades so I didn’t really bring my hat. They got the birthday cake and all the kids wanted to cake. Right after that, I glanced at my clock and realized that we had to get going to make it to Yoga because there was a lot of traffic on I 76 and it was gonna take about an hour to get back by 3:30 PM.Once we said our goodbyes we had it out. We filed the Google maps and it predicted pretty correctly the traffic but it wasn’t as horrible as I thought it might be. We actually got to the Dorchester and parked the car in the garage. We got back at 3:30 so we had time to walk over to our

4 o’clock yoga. What went to class Miah taught the class and gave us good instruction on various poses. This was a 90 minute class. It was pretty rigorous. My arms did OK but my shoulders are of course tired as they do as they tend to get afterwards, we hung out at the studio for a little while and had some interesting conversations. Afterwards, we were like who came back to Mary‘s place saw car get towed inChester. We also got a smoothie at the marathon Grill, which was very delicious with then relaxed and fell asleep and had a late night dinner of leftovers. We had plenty of Indian food leftover it was qui

Sunday, May 26: Breakfast in Lansdale. Mary’s Family

Well, you set the alarm for 7:30 AM to get ready to go to the party

 that starts at 11 o’clock up in Lansdale. This is where we eat a little breakfast go to suburban station cast the train to North Wales and then take a six minute Uber 

ride out to this party. Well the first part went really well. We just had breakfast. I finished off yesterday‘s blog posting and then realize we were running late for the 9:40 AM train from suburban 

station so we walked a really good pace. Look out here comes the… Race anyway. We raced over to train. Had a nice smooth train ride. 

 The Uber guy showed up at the train station, but he was over to our side. We are dropped off at this place at the place. We were going to go to the party and didn’t noticed 

there was nobody in the driveway. Nobody anywhere. It turns out that the party starts at 1 PM so we just got the hell out of Dodge so we would be discovered showing 

up really lame and early. We called Uber and to go to Lansdale and we’d find some place to eat Lansdale and kill some time. I was getting very hungry. so we found a nice little diner called the coffee café. It had a traditional

 diner and I had pancakes and scrap and it was really good. So you went to the local 

minimart got some nice tea and we’re going to Uber to the party and 

get there at 1:15 PM. We’re not showing up on time after showing up two hours early

 ha ha😉😉🤣🤣. Anyhow, we had a good time at breakfast. I ate a nice bonus pack of 

pancakes and scrapple and Mary had some eggs. We called the Uber and 10 

minutes later and we went to the house. There’s a lot more people there kids running around women expecting 
more kids, etc. Family reunion basically. The sun

 was very intense. You couldn’t sit out in the sun because it was just too damn hot. I was really glad I brought my hat with me. Some people were a little more social than others, but everybody

 was pretty friendly once we talk to him. We talked a couple people about the top for being arrested , and I believe it was West Virginia. Anyhow, I was not hungry at all after all those pancakes 

that all kinds of food that was catered and had some caterer there. The people that had it, the woman is 

pregnant and I have two kids and but the house is gigantic at the end of cul-de-sac. 

Anyhow, it was fine and it was pretty pleasant beside the heat. After that we

 decided we’d catch the 4 o’clock train from North Wales and that’s what we did. 

We called the Uber. They took 10 minutes to show up and we caught the train with eight minutes to spare. we almost were too 

far away from the entrance because they were strict the entrances on weekends. We got back and I wanted to tell Mike I was coming 
into work tomorrow so Mary and I walked 

to Mike’s place and we hung out at Mike’s and helped him out a little bit, taking out boxes and getting him mail. after you left, we walked back to Mary and that was

 pretty enjoyable. Anyhow, we talked a little bit and then I caught the 21 Justice it was coming up which was fortunate and it’s now 8:06 PM and I just arrived 

in Melbourne. We’re having some big kind of block party here millbourne. It was some kind of Bangladesh 
🇧🇩 festival. I saw the best Bangladesh 

and US flags together. Came in made up some dinner and hung out with Pat who was home doing motorcycle repair. He look like he’s been in the sun. We talked

 for a bit. The music got pretty loud they had, some playing some hits. It was also very warm out. The humidity was starting to creep up like socialism and 

it was somewhat irritating. Anyhow, I did manage to do some laundry, which is good. Tomorrow is memorial day but I’m working

 at Mike’s 
and I’m gonna go to a 9 o’clock yoga class least that’s what I intend to do. Right now trying to wrap this up as a good man should do it right for the hood.
