Sunday started by going to Els' house ringing the bell and waiting for Jane to emerge so that we could head to Philadelphia and the ball game. We stopped here to get subs to bring but they couldn't get the order straight. We were surprised to see these regulations limiting tail gating. This gentleman wanted to buy tickets so that he could sell them again and this was the slowest parking guy in the world. We parked in section 27 as everyone got in position for the picture of their backs heading to the stadium. Then we did the skyline background picture and were ready to enter the gate and see the field where Jane showed off her new ink. Everyone was excited to taste their subs as Jane got ready for the Italian Benjamin munched on the turkey and Suzanne had the vegetarian. The scoreboard warned us about doing anything bad and then we took the traditional 3rd inning picture. In the 4th inning the Phillie Phanatic came to visit to relieve the tedium of the game as the pitcher tried to get the runner off second and we posed in a group and then in Benjamin's new hat (Thank you Peco). The gang above didn't seem interested in our peanuts but when the shells emerged that got them up for the 7th inning stretch where it was 1, 2, 3 strikes and we were out. Jane posed her braids as the Phanatic danced on the dugout and we measured the ingredients in the peanut bag. The salt content caused a huddle on the mound but none of this helped the Phillies win the game.

So we drove to Old City and got out of the car en masse because the signs said we could park here near the Morningside Farms Fan Van. The group gathered to check out the fringe before we walked down the narrowest (and oldest) street to the dedicated garden at the end. Next we went to see DrLen's Diver friend who had just suffered a fall and was hoping that Superman could help him recover. We paused to see Joel's soap box car before admiring some remarkable lamps from toys, the suit with the buttons the pictures of the dead presidents and the button collection. The phone lamp was great as Jane pondered whether to take the elevator down. We met this guy as we checked out of the fringe festival and found a menu we could abide for dinner. While waiting, Benjamin Suzanne, Jane, DrLen, and Judy saw no need for an umbrella even if it came with free rain. The waiter brought us bread and beer and Jane, Suzanne, Len, Benjamin, David and Judy sprung back to life and ordered water con gas. Benjamin had this pizza which he traded with Judy for this pizza. Suzanne had this salad DrLen had the polenta because the waiter couldn't get the chef to make the risotto. Jane had the chicken Caesar After a few final umbrella pictures we packed up our leftovers and took a picture of Lucy's restaurant before calling it a day.
