Philadelphia was kind of a short stop but that was ok. We got in later in the day after driving from NY. We did the important things like the liberty bell and Independence hall tour before they closed, and then walked around the city and saw some other neat things like the Betsy Ross house and Ben Franklins grave.
Elfreth street is "the oldest residential street in America" and I was totally in love with the secret gardens behind the gates. I want a secret garden!!
Liberty Bell
During the tour we realized that we were visiting the room that the Declaration of Independence was signed on the anniversary of the signing on Aug, 2nd 1776. We sent a short video of us singing happy birthday to Chelsea and the Declaration to Chelsea. The constitutional convention also happened here.
Independence hall
We also tried some real Philly cheese steaks and they were pretty good.
