The DOZER Chronicles: road trip: take II

night 2 we arrived to a hotel in PA to spend the night. i was visiting 3 Target stores in the area on friday (for work) so we thought it'd be a good idea to stay at a hotel vs. camping. on our way we ran into a HUGE storm, rain so thick we couldn't see more than five feet in front of us. not only did it rain, but it hailed. it was interesting to see that everyone put their hazard lights on so that they were easier to spot in the rain storm... great idea! amy & i are bringing that to MN and will start to drive with hazards on during a blizzard.

the car just in front of us... with hazards on!

after visiting my stores on friday we headed to Hampton, VA. on the way we went through Baltimore, MD and went through some crazy tunnels that went under the water. YIKES! the tunnels were so long and you could completely tell you were driving downward and then back upward to leave the tunnel. it was a bit scary, but a fun experience.

on friday night we had dinner at a great italian restaurant - Pane'e Vino. we tried their famous fried mozzarella (not your traditional mozz sticks) and they were fab! here are a few pictures from dinner.

the house cab was so yummy!

great bread dips!

wine corks line the small server area - it was so cool! we got one as a souvenir.

We continued into VA and checked into a CRAP hotel for the night. The air didn't work and it was so stinky! We made it through the night, but certainly didn't get a good night of sleep. :)
