It was a pretty amazing Friday afternoon when 
It's kind of amazing how fascinated kids are with devices even when they don't have access to them that often. That is the case with our great niece. If she sees you have a phone out, she wants to know what you are up to. Actually, it's pretty funny because what she really wants is to look at all the photos you just took of her. Perhaps she is getting ready for when she is older and she wants to decide what is social media worthy or not.
I say all this to justify the fact that she has my phone in her hand in the above picture. It's not a common occurrence. It's actually the exception more than it is the norm with her. Her mom and grandparents are doing their best to limit her exposure to devices and television in general.
Since we had started our weekend kind of early, and our family had started theirs even earlier due to having work off, we decided it wouldn't be out of line to start drinking a little early. Apparently, Yuengling (the oldest brewery in America) has a new lager that has a hint of lime in it, so it isn't quite a Mexican style, but it still has that kind of feel to it.
I can attest to the fact that it was delicious. After I finished my first one, we decided we would head over to the North Market to get some dinner. The cool thing is, the Bridge Park area allows alcohol as long as you are drinking it from one of their special cups. Given their proximity to that area, my sister in law was smart enough to stock pile some of the cups. With that in mind, we started our stroll with drinks in hand to head to the North Market.
The North Market is pretty similar to what you would expect from a lot of city markets like this. They had a wide variety of places where you could get food as well as a trendy bar down at the end of the market. By the time we got to the market which is about a mile away, our drinks were gone and it was time to top off with another. We also needed to get some dinner.
It was actually a really hard choice for dinner because there were so many amazing options. There was a Korean BBQ place I really wanted to try, but then the Vietnamese place called "Lan Viet" sounded really interesting too. Needless to say, I might have to make my way back to North Market at some point in the future. Check out that link I shared above for all the great eating options there, you will see why it was such a hard decision for me.
After dinner we headed back across the pedestrian bridge to the other side of the Scioto River so we could head to our hotel and get checked in. Clocking in close to 2 miles, I think this is a perfect candidate for a #wednesdaywalk sponsored by
