Hello all,
C, good time in NYC this Friday! Let me know how things turned/are turning out.
Dad, here are directions to Philly:

Take 76 East towards Philadelphia. Once you are close to Philly, what you are driving on will be come Highway 276, and you need to get off of that in order to stay on 76 E. This will be exit # 326 for 76 E (you will see signs for philly, valley forge). You will pay the toll for your turnpike trip shortly after getting off, and then you will follow 76 E all the way into the heart of philly. Once you see the art museum across the Schuylkill river on your left, and sky scrapers in front of you, you know you are getting close. Get off at the 30th St. Station exit, which will be a right hand exit. Pay close attention as things will get a little hectic here (tight road). When you get off at that exit, follow the road, as you run into the station and then are guided around it. your third light will be at Market (you will be on 30th st.). take a right at that light. Follow Market St. up the hill for 12 blocks, until you take a left onto 42nd. Take your first immediate left, which will be Ludlow St (which is a one way going east). you will see a school-type building on your left as you make the turn. the back of the school has a concrete parking area enclosed by a fence. my house is the first house on the left after that concrete area (#4111). Take a left into the drive way and I will come out to greet you!!! If I am picking up JP at the airport, I will leave the back door open so you can go and get comfy.
Quick recap:
