Dan had the idea to stop at the Mütter Museum which Wikipedia aptly describes as “a collection of medical oddities, anatomical and pathological specimens, wax models, and antique medical equipment”. Some very strange stuff here but like nothing you will see anywhere else. Lat = 39.9532013 , Long = -75.1766357 — Show at Google Maps
The drive in to Philly the night before gave us a bit of snow/rain so we didn’t get much done that night. Woke up the next morning and took a walk through the historic downtown area. Saw the Liberty Bell. We also took the Constitutional Walking Tour which was guided by a very knowledgeable guy … Read more
My company closed down in March and I had some time off before starting a new position so I decided to take a 4 day whirlwind road trip with my friend Dan. Our first stop was in Cleveland to see the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. We spent hours here and didn’t even have … Read more

On our last day we took a ferry out to Ward’s Island and had some beers at the Island Cafe. Super low key, we were just about the only people out here. Great view of the city looking over the Inner Harbour. Lat = 43.6320152 , Long = -79.3554306 — Show at Google Maps
Our friend Leonidas said we should grab a beer at the Amsterdam BrewHouse and he wasn’t wrong. Beers, great food, cool merch, and a lakefront view with perfect weather? This was probably one of the top places we visited and would definitely go back again. Lat = 43.6378975 , Long = -79.3848648 — Show at … Read more

Walked by the Toronto Stock Exchange, CN Tower, St. Lawrence Market, and Rogers Center but didn’t go inside. Walked through and around the Roundhouse Park area. With the aid of our local buddy … Read more

This is at one end of the PATH which is an underground shopping center that is over 30km long and the largest in the world according to the Guiness World Records. During our time we … Read more
