Ithaca is Gorges

So yeah:

Woke up Sunday morning, grabbed a bagel and water and headed home to meet Lissy for our road trip to Cornell! Ate a delicious kebab roll from mom, didn't crash into anything, so general drive success.

Got up to Ithaca and after a brief drive around some of the most beautiful houses ever, got to Alex's, dropped of the sister, and went on an extremely informative tour of the campus haha. Then very yummy tapas & wine:

And this fab dessert that was like, blueberries and blackberries all baked into one delicious mess - def reminded me of all the amazing blackberry eats in Maine yum yum.

Monday tex-mex breakfast:

With surprisingly spicy chili in that little cup! Drove around the lake, went and drank cider and wines and "lunch" was fantastic salted caramel ice cream in a pretzel cone (ah Graeter's I miss you so much...), went to a cute little info session w Lis and had to listen to this terrible overbearing mom ask so many annoying questions (thought I was done with that nonsense), then grabbed an actually delicious meatball sandwich from some like....gas station-esque place. And seriously, it was so good, I've tried lots of meatball subs and they're always kind of meh but this was perfect and crunchy bread and all that good stuff. So congrats Ithaca, good job on food & wine - I would not kill myself if I lived here :)

Also got back to BR in 3.5 hours, thank you 80 mph drivers.
