When the Girl Meets World
In 5 hours time I will be leaving for Philadelphia (yes that's me - a jet-setting maister). And boy do I have my trip all planned out, all with the help of Google Earth and the interweb. See - no need for Lonely Planet guidebooks.
Philly has a special, albeit less than authentic, place in my heart. I only remember driving through it when we drove from New York to Washington when I was 8. The only other, more significant, piece of knowledge I have of Philly is that it's the setting for Boy Meets World! Growing up, watching Boy Meets World was probably my main artery of cultural knowledge of the States, that and Archie comics. These 2 sources supplied me with everything I now know - that there are 3 types of hair color, that lockers are full-length, that they don't wear school uniforms there, that classrooms consist of singular tables with a tiny table attached to each chair, and that detention is much dreaded.
Lovely lovely lovely, I AM TOO EXCITED CAN YOU TELL
