Philly Cheesesteak: Couldnt leave Philly without eating one!

Its official. 6:24am I boarded the plane and headed to Philly for our staging event. Though the goodbyes were hard, it was time to start a new chapter. As a quote I once heard...leaving is always hard until you do it then it is the easiest god-dammed thing in the world. This quotes indeed fits my situation. Leaving was hard until I actually did it but now as I am here in Philly it makes me wonder what was so hard about it.
I arrived in Philly around 4:00 and met up with 3 other guys whom are also going to be RAP volunteers. After shuttling our way to the hotel we were all starving after a long day of travel that we took a taxi downtown to get an authentic Philly Cheese-steak. We wandered around downtown and strongly considered walking all the way back to the hotel until we realized that we would have to walk 2 hours to get back. Also once we decided that we should take a taxi we realized that the path we were going to walk would have lead us to walking the freeway we realized it was a smart idea to take the taxi back. The other PCT are AWESOME! It seems as though we all have a lot in common and everyone is very enthusiastic about the adventure that lies ahead of us.... enthusiastic for everything except for the 15 hours plane ride we gave to take. Though I will miss my life here in America I am excited to see what lies ahead and to begin this wonderful 27 month journey!
