So, we went to MD for some of Spring Break and then to Philly. Grandma & Grandpa watched the boys while Jimmy, Ben, and I went to Philadelphia for a few hours.
Independence Hall... I think... O.o
A quote I liked:
The courtroom:
Something significant about this painting, yadda yadda...
(you can tell I love history, right?)
Aesthetically pleasing! I love the architecture!
So, on the tables back there, they had some bifocals, a cane, and some books from those days.
(I also like to listen to historical facts.)
Books from those days:
a can from those days:
bifocals from those days:
Unknown soldiers monument:
Independence Hall is behind us, I believe...
The Liberty Bell Museum:
Go Korea!
Just in case you wanted to know that we actually saw the Liberty Bell... well, here she is!:
OK, so here is a better shot. (And don't ask why I'm leaning!)
In Philadelphia, people like to drive with their backpacks hanging out of their vehicles:
The moment I was waiting for! CHEESESTEAKS! These two places, Pat's and Geno's, claim that they are the first original cheesesteak sandwich makers.
Geno's (bread was yummy):
Pat's (steak was better):
Overall, it was a very cold and quick trip! Next time we go, hopefully it will be warmer than 43 degrees. Jimmy and Ben just had hoodies. I had my coat and was STILL freezing!
