21 feb 2010

woke up with a huge head ache and feeling really rotten on the sofa at mommy's house.

Mark's train was early in the morning so we had to leave around 8:00 to get there in plenty of time. Mark had gone out to starbucks first thing in the am. brought back a cappu for me. the espresso really helped my head ache.

we got to the train station in good time. said our farewells. Mark asked us not to wait for the train to leave so we headed back towards Denbigh.

Mommy's Sunday am tradition is breakfast at the Belgian Waffle so we went to the BW.

breakfast

mushroom and spinach omelette (no hollandaise)
bacon
hashbrowns
toast
iced tea

omelette was very good. key is to avoid the hollandaise. i love the way they cook their bacon. i feel like i'm back in India.

we went back to motoka and chatted. Karen was already packed but her flight wasn't until about noon. we dropped her off in time. i packed all my stuff when we got back and said good bye to the birthday girl. it was a very good visit and i really think she had a good time.

i stopped at hardee's to get fortified for the road.

snack

hot dog
iced tea
bottle of water

very slow service at that hardee's

i went back through Richmond rather than by the 295 route on the recommendation of several people. it worked well. maybe a little faster than 295.

managed to get to the route 1 exit in Fredericksburg before stopping for lunch.

chicken fajitas
refried beans
rice
chips / salsa
iced tea

at Pancho Villa. This is the second PV I've eaten at in the area. Both have been good.

stopped in Warrenton to get subs. Elizabeth had book club today and I've been driving so I thought subs were the way to go.

dinner

spicy italian sub from subway
iced tea

so so. I went to bed very early. really tired after two nights on the coach.
