My fiance is in the Master's of Nursing program at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia. His graduation was held at the Philadelphia Convention Center in Center City Philadelphia.
We decided to stay across the street from the Convention Center and arrived at our hotel mid-afternoon. After resting up for a while (we were exhausted from our stay in NYC), we walked a block over from our hotel and started exploring Philly's Chinatown.
The weather was humid and chilly, and I wore my blue moto jacket (again!). The weather started to change while we were in Philadelphia, becoming much warmer and more humid. I wore my jacket the day of graduation too, but it proved to be a bit much.

We decided to have dinner in Chinatown. I let the man pick the restaurant, and he chose Sammy Chon's KTown BBQ.
I opted for a large salad with the most amazing sesame seed salad dressing.

The next day, we grabbed a quick lunch before going over to the Convention Center for my honey's graduation. He's pretty amazing - works full-time as a hospice nurse and totally rocked his master's program.
The graduation was relativity entertaining (as far as graduations go). The honorary degree recipient and guest speaker was John Howe III, M.D. He is President and CEO of Project Hope, a foundation that provides international health care education and humanitarianism in areas of need (more info here). His speech was both funny and inspiring.
