Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... hio!

Last week me and gary flew over to ohio to look at housing! (litterally 3 days nonstop)

We got a pretty sweet deal on the flight/hotel/car rental off priceline ^^ and off we went for 4 days!

It was 55 degree's when we arrived there, and everyone kept commenting what a beautiful weather they were having! hahah O_O I was totally freezing! But thankfully it warmed up (within one day) to 90 degrees! crazy huh?

What we were looking in for a house
1. Convienience to Case Western (pref walking/biking distance)
2. Heat/air conditioning included?
3. Dogs allowed (can't wait to get a puppy!! EEEEEEEEE ^___^ )
4. Laundry? gym
5. Covered parking space provided


Some highlights of the trip!

Thursday:
we looked at housing and I instantly fell in love with the first place we looked at: kensington gardens. It was beautiful and clean and had a gym! and the one bedroom that was avaliable allows you to have share relatively large private grassy courtyard with 2 other people!! (perfect for puppy!!) hehe The other places we looked at next.. were a bit gettoer, and we learned about radiators, and shoveling snow in the winter. haha =)


For dinner we ate at Lolitas! A resturant owned by iron chef michael Symon! we yelped it, and it got pretty good reviews! So we ordered an appetizer meatballs ($7) and their "famous" mac and cheese.($15) BUUTT!! oh my goodness the meatballs get here... and i was imagineing maybe 2 or 3 large 4 inch in diameter meatballs, you know like you normally get on a meat ball patter right? BUt no! the meatballs come.. and they are on this tiny dish.. there are four 1 inch in diameter TINY meatballs!! hahahah me and gary nearly laughed our heads off. Granted they were lamb meatballs and very very delicious... but hhaha stil =)





Friday:
Visited 5 more places, and we learned about radiators.. and how its really important to find a place that has covered parking (so you don't have to shovel out your car) and includes heat and air conditioning, or else your electricity cost will skyrocket

heres a video we took that day so you can get a feel of what the housing looks like in cleveland =)



Saturday:
Found a place were in LOVE with 5 min walking distance from case. Parklanevilla.com, the building is SOOOO NICE! and they allow pets! But they have such an intense waiting list T__T i really hope that we can get it!
