We spent all day walking today around Philadelphia. Really interesting town - obsessed with Benjamin Franklin and William Penn (Quakers) and the role they both played in the Declaration of Independence. Philidelphia served as the original capitol prior to the move to Washington DC so there were lots of interesting buildings around. Saw the Liberty Bell, the place were the Declaration of Indepence was signed and Ben Franklin´s house and grave.
Ended the night in a little pub eating a Philly Cheese Steak - which is like roast beef roll but covered in a cheese sauce rather than gravy - yuck!
