Pictured: view from my airplane seat / SFO Museum display /

Off, off, and away! I took a red-eye east and landed in Central Pennsylvania with my daughter for a week of exploring the middle of the state. SFO Museum kept me intrigued with a display of historical information and artifacts all about San Francisco. It was a fun display, so don’t miss it if you fly through SFO!

I took a layover in Chicago and then continued on my way, landing just before noon at my destination. There isn’t enough coffee in the world for taking a red eye when you are middle aged. But I digress. . .

After picking up my rental car, I went to pick up my daughter, grab lunch and then check into our hotel. Thankfully the hotel has free coffee all day, so I indulged.

We got settled, took a walk, and then headed off to dinner! We enjoyed a delicious meal at Gigi’s Southern Kitchen in State College, PA. I had the blackened salmon, and my daughter enjoyed fried chicken. The decor is amazing, and the food is always delicious. Yummy!

After dinner, we relaxed in the hotel. After all, a red eye takes its toll, and my daughter was ready to crash since it was her spring break from school. I painted my nails, and we watched TV together. We were all set to start our adventures in PA the next day!

By the way, this topcoat is amazing. My manicure lasted all week long without chipping. Love that!

Stay tuned for my blog posts all about our trip!
