Day 8 - Philadelphia

Today we were in the city of Brotherly Love. We stayed just outside of the old city, so this morning we took the train into town to begin our touring. We saw the Liberty Bell, then walked around Old town, saw Carpenters Hall where the First Continental Congress convened in 1774, Elfreth's Alley, the oldest street that still houses people, in the USA. Then we had some Philly Cheese Steaks and made our way to Independence Hall. To see where the Declaration of Independence and Constitution were signed was incredible. Then we took a trolley to the Museum of Art, where Rocky climbed the steps. Of course, we had to run the steps just like Rocky. Maddy is not in any of our pics today. She is recovering from a stomach bug. We will be making our way to New York tomorrow.
