From Virginia to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Instead of going into Washington, D.C. 

we headed east to, 

Chesapeake Bay Bridge and Tunnel.

No vacancy!

We drove through Maryland, Delaware and New Jersey

then started our walking tour around Philadelphia.

A couple of the highlights were seeing the Liberty Bell,

touring Independence Hall and Old City Hall.

Independence Hall is in the middle,

 on the right is Old City Hall.

We had to go through security,

 just like at an airport, to get into all these places!

Independence Hall is where the

Declaration of Independence and the 

 Constitution were debated and adopted

by the Founding Fathers. 

So much history that it is hard to soak it all in. 

Some original furniture,

and rug which is amazing to see hundreds of years later!

Wow! Didn't think we would see the ink well 

used to sign the Declaration of Independence!

You have to have a Philly Cheesesteak 

and a picture of Rocky when you go 

to Philadelphia!
