Following HIS Lead

Today we slept in until 10 and then headed off to Philadelphia. We got into town and got in line to see the "sacred relic" of our great nation: the Liberty Bell; after an intense security search, we were able to take in all the bell's greatness.


After the Liberty Bell, we walked over to the Visitors Center to figure out what our next moves were going to be. After a yummy philly cheesesteak, we walked around The 2nd bank where many portraits of important US leaders are kept. can you guess whose in the portrait? I'll give you a multiple choice: A. John Kerry or B. Andrew Jackson after The Second Bank, we attempted to get on the internet with Philly's free wifi because we had some free time before our tour of Independence Hall started, but it wasnt working right, so we chilled in the visitor's center.

The "birthplace" of our nation was a cool place. Inside the historical park we went into Congress Hall, and then into the Independence Hall, where the Delcaration of Independence was signed-where yet again, the securtiy was tight..as in take off belts and watches (why? we're not really sure).



After the tour we headed out of town, and found a hotel. Grabbed some dinner at Friendly's and now are relaxing in the hotel room.

Check back around Sunday...tomorra we're headed out to Grove City to visit the Lewis family!
