So this weekend I went to Philadelphia to visit my brother. He is up there doing a rotation with a plastic surgeon. His land lord took us on a tour of all the tourist sites of Philladelphia. I started the trek in DC went through maryland delaware, and ended in Philly in 145 miles. It's crazy how close everything is around here!
This is the famous Liberty bell
This is the room where the actual contstitutional convention took place. The chair in the background is the actual chair George Washington sat in to lead the convention.
This was the first court room
These are the chairs some of the founding fathers sat in while discussing the declaration of independance.
This is the oldest residential street in the united states
This is the oldest artifact in the US it is a baptisimal faunt from Christs church, which is where 15 of the signers of the declaration of independance went, including George Washington, and Ben franklin
This was George Washingtons chair, at this church you had to buy your seat for church.
Just a picture of the city
Across the river is New Jersy
