Check it and selec it, the Rocky steps. And the museum of fine arts on top of them (or something like that). There was actually a staue of Rocky off to the right, but again, I was too self concious to get a photo. And other tourists were hogging it. Scum.

Eeep. Bit of catching up to do. Was here bloody days ago. Anyway, got to Philadelphia at about 14:00 to discover I couldn't get into the hostel till 16:30 which put me in a spetacular mood as I had to lug my rucksack around, which by now feels like my undercrackers have the density of plutonium. Still managed to take in some of the sites though - bit of a revolutionary spin to everything so not the most compulsive city to wander round with a heavy bag, a strop and be English. Again, bloody colonials - who do they think they are? Tsk. Ran up the Rocky steps though. Well, it was more of a half run/half self concious walk as I guess everyone and their aunty does it.
