This is what happens when two girls are bored on their day off. I hope you enjoy this as much as I do, cause I get a kick out of myself.

13 states in 10 days.... the way a road trip oughta be.

Maine, Delaware, New York, Washington D.C, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, New Hampshire, Georgia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Connecticut. Admittedly we just drove through a couple of these states on our way to Georgia. But we at least stopped for lunch or at a gift shop in each state.

MASSACHUSETTS

Yes we are back to MA again.... But we got to explore a different side of it this time. It was a dark and stormy night on Friday the 13th in Salem......No actually it was just a bit windy. But Salem was the perfect way to spend the superstitious day. The town was just as you would imagine. Lots of weird voodoo style shops, and cool historical sites, like the site where they think the witch hangings took place and monument and of course about twenty fortune tellers trying to get us to pay them money.....

Continuing on the road!.....

NEW HAMPSHIRE

Up to New Hampshire we went for one day. We have eaten so much clam chowder in New England......I mean LOTS. We found this little restaurant right on the port and ate mussels (ew) and more seafood. (yum) I have to admit, the seafood is much better out here.

MAINE

There is a time and a place for everything and Maine is the perfect place to eat Lobster for the first time. I was frightened, even terrified at times, but after I got used to my food having eyeballs, it actually tasted really good.

DELAWARE

I don't who thought up the idea for the place that we stay for the longest time, be the most boring state. I don't have much to say about Delaware except that it comes after Connecticut and before Florida in the alphabet.

PENNSYLVANIA

So instead of twiddling our thumbs in Delaware we hopped in the car and drove across the border to Philly! We visited lots of cool history stuff, liberty bell, the usual and also got to experience a real Philly cheese steak sandwich. Geno himself asked us if we were Mormon. I really think we may have a future convert.

WASHINGTON, D.C.

Very cool place to hang out for sushi. I don't recommend driving through it with traffic and parallel parking a minivan.

SOUTH CAROLINA

10 hours of driving later.....we finally landed here for a nice southern style lunch. Never had hush puppies before this and have never been called ma'am so many times in my life.

GEORGIA!

I love Georgia. The people are real nice and the weather is even nicer. Of course I am comparing the weather to the 4 degree weather of New England, but a 55 degree day in Atlanta was awesome! We celebrated black history month by seeing the historical Martin Luther King Jr site, we also celebrated how caffeine blesses our lives by going through the coke museum and ended a typical day by being crowned royal lords and ladies of the Medieval realm. No Big Deal.

As for the other seven states they were all special and wonderful in their own unique way. Just not cool enough to make it on to my blog.

Florida is Next!!!

NYC

WHO KNEW?

Who knew.......

.......that Allan and Elise would be hand picked out of a crowd to be in the front row on the David Letterman show with guest star Martha Stewart.

........that we would hop on 5 or more subways until we would finally figure out where we were headed in Manhattan.

.......that hearing the horns honking during church from the street below you in NY is actually really cool.

....... that performing shows for the poorest schools can be the best kids and show ever!

.....and that performing a show for a rich private Jewish school would be the most outrageously misbehaved school. And that saying the word SEXY would be a bad idea. We then proceeded to get yelled at by the Rabbi......yeah.

......Who knew that driving around Newark, NJ (one of the highest crime rates in the US) after dark, looking for an ice cream shop, would be a very terrifying experience. OK. We probably should have known that one.

.......that such a thing as a frozen hot chocolate even existed!? Serendipity.

......that my favorite childhood puppets would turn out to be so very entertaining....And a little bit racist. (Avenue Q)

....that Lizzie's huge signals that we need to wrap up the show NOW, would mean that Elise would try to segue to the end while Allan would stop and blankly stare at her for a long five seconds.....finally saying "uh.....What?"

.....And lastly, Who knew that it would take a trip across the country for Allan to finally find the woman of his dreams.

HIGH FIVE!!!!

First week on our own

So we are officially done with rehearsal and we have left Northampton (The proud lesbian capitol of the world). We are now touring and staying at each city for only a day or two. Only a week of performances so far and yet some interesting things have occured.

*Allan lost his voice yesterday and was squeaking for the whole afternoon.

*The moment when Elise completely forgot her line and just stood there awkwardly with a look of sheer terror in her eyes, splurting out bits of lines that she can remember from any part of the show. At that moment Allan decides to walk off the stage. We recovered and of course the line all came back to her in the middle of Allans next line.... She yelled it out suddenly. Smooth as sandpaper..

*Allan having yogurt all over his face and Elise and Lizzie end up looking like they have Turrets by trying to signal him to wipe it off.

*We got to perform at Hogwarts. I am pretty sure Harry will be eating less chocolate frogs and jelly slugs. ---->

*We got really excited about the free meal at Denny's for every one in America ad. Until we got there and there was a one hour wait. So we took this picture and found lunch somewhere else. Don't we look happy?

We now know what 2 degrees feels like. With wind.

*We stumbled upon a Candle Pin Bowling Lane (one of the few left in the world) and played a couple games. Its really hard! The pins are skinny and the balls are small. But we had the whole place to ourselves.

Ah we will miss the city of Northampton. And Remember. Give PEAS a chance.
