NYC Day 6

Thursday, October 8, 2009
Philadelphia, PA

We took a little day trip today to Philly. We woke up early and took the 7:30 train from Penn Station for an hour and a half trip. The kids never rode a train before so they were excited to go!

We all passed out on the train!!
We made it to Philly!
On our way to Independence Hall...

After the Liberty Bell, we did a little shopping and we had some time left so we went to the Philadelphia Museum of Art to see the Rocky statue...
They all made it to the top of the stairs!

I love Philly, I went there twice for a week each time. We always go to the Original Bookbinders for lobster and I think South St for all kinds of different foods. Pats and Genos are suppose to have the best chesse steaks. I love Philly Chesse Steaks!!! I JELLOS!!!

Jonathan always looks so cheery and energetic in your photos! He's a cutie! Did you guys run up the steps of the art museum, like Rocky? I was there 2 years ago and your photos brought back fun memories of philly!

bebedeer -- yah, johnathan is a little ham...he's always telling me "aunty Leslie, take my picture!!"

They ran the steps alright, maybe 4, 5 times? I wish I had that kind of energy!!

Wow...a week. I'm so jealous your there and I'm here he he...and it's your second time in NY. How early in advance did you folks plan or book the flight and hotel? Eat all the good foods for me = )

mmiissee-I'm not too sure, I think we booked the flight in July or Aug, and we're renting an apartment and we booked it last month...it's cheaper and bigger! You should check it out if you ever come up.
