 Earlier this year I visited Erie, PA and now I'm on the other side in Philadelphia. I was able to visit another cousin which is always fun. She showed me around to some of the historic sights. Of course we visited Ben Franklin's grave sight. I am not sure if I mentioned this before but my first ever report was on Ben Franklin. Ever since then he has always had a special place in my heart. My cousin thought I was having a religious experience when I bent down to touch the tomb stone, but I was just trying to pick up some of the pennies on it. Awkward, lol! Some other interesting sight I checked out were: The Liberty Bell, Rocky, Joan of Arc, and a jail that once held Al Capone. Oh and don't worry of course I tried an authentic Philly Cheese steak. I did not know that authentic meant cheese whiz.

Philadelphia looks promising! I've never been there but your article is great because I get to see a glimpse of that historic state. Now I know where to go for my next road trip. The first thing on my bucket list would be to try that authentic Philly Cheese Steak. I've tasted different versions here in L.A but I'm pretty sure nothing beats the original. Also looking forward to see that jail where Al Capone was held, My dad is a huge fan so anything related to him can get him going all week. Leave a Reply. |
