    Unless they posted the whole food district just park on the street! No more lumpers and the LL's don't knock as much!

    Or head on out I76 towards the pike and there are several wide spots you can park on.

    The first time I went to Philadelphia, I parked at the rest area in King of Prussia. That's a tiny little dive. If I ever have to do it again, I'm hanging out in Breezewood.

    Why Breezewood? Heck thats 68 miles further than Carlisle! And 3 hours away! If you have an AM appt I hope it's before rush hour or you'll be wasting a lot of time!

    Because there's parking there, every time. The Carlisle Pilot is quite a typical Pilot...
