|
The only disappointment at Jungle Jim's was porta-potties instead of
real rest rooms.
|
|
| 2020-03-04_13.27.49_NotReallyOuthouses.jpg |
|
Surprise!
Fake porta-potties are vestibules to real bathrooms.

|
Pretty luxurious actually.
Really nice tile and fixtures.
Couldn't get Penny to walk in and take pictures for me though.
Probably all for the best.
She might have gotten arrested, walking into the men's room with a camera!

Camera took a fuzzy picture.

| 2020-03-04_13.54.49_PittsburghSucksHotSauce.jpg |
|
Everywhere you go, there are local rivalries.
Cincinnati has "Pittsburgh Sucks" hot sauce.
In Philly, they'd be blasting Camden or all of NJ.
In Pleasant Ridge, we called Norwood "the armpit of the nation".
In Haverford, that was Narberth.

Picked up some chocolate milk stout for Thor on sale.
Hmmm...
None in the picture.
Did I grab the last 6-pack?
|
|
| 2020-03-04_14.17.20_CheeseWing.jpg |
|
The cheese wing was huge, and I hear, very interesting.
All kinds of cheese from various countries.
And carved into lots of fancy shapes.
But Cincinnati's world-famous Skyline Chili was calling.
Their chili dogs might be better than even the VI (Vienna Inn) in Virginia!

I was tempted, but didn't buy a cooler labeled
"Human Organ for Transplant".
Next time!...
