we headed into Philly for a taste of history - and a Philly!
Philly is a big place, replete with history and skinny buildings
i was really digging on the old, skinny buildings
the liberty bell is there and free for the viewing, you just have to squeeze your way between dozens of chinese - as if they know something about liberty
but the main attraction in town is "Liberty Hall", the old courthouse where our founding fathers signed some old documents - here's the building from the outside
and here's our best picture of the actual room, with much of the original furniture! it was really humbling
and here's a fuzzy one of my ugly mug
and then we headed through "Society Hill" to Jim's for an authentic Philly. Society Hill was where all the rich people hung out years and years ago, its a wonderful old neighborhood and makes for a nice little stroll
and the verdict is: "authentic" phillies are really no better than any other philly
but there's no better way to keep it real in Philly
