Philadelphia part 2

Continuing on...

Right behind the Liberty Bell was Independence Hall where the Declaration of Independence was signed. You practically have to be strip searched to get in there! TK was asking how the heck to get a stroller to the entrance. :)

Here is The Spot. Signed here. I loved that the colors of the walls are the actual original colors. Good choice, huh?

The next day we headed over in the opposite direction to the Franklin Institute science museum. I was the hero of the day when I realized we could all get in for free with our Boston Science museum pass! Woot woot. On the way there we wound up in Logan Circle and read this plaque:

It was extra special because of the name, William Penn. My dad had discovered that William Penn was one of our ancestors. Noah thought that was pretty cool. Then we read on that the grounds were meant for executions! Nice. We had to get a friendly photo of the kids there: 

(Josh would probably like me to put out the disclaimer: Pres picked out her whole outfit for the day! Stripes+polkie dots, she calls them)

Here's what you see when you enter the Franklin Institute.

Here is everyone waiting for the liquid air show to begin. We spent the whole day there and only covered half of the the things to do. It was nice that Josh could duck out for a few hours and hang with us. We all watched Tangled in 3D there. Cute movie.

More fun with gramma!

 

Up next: Philadelphia part 3. I bet you're on the edge of your seat! Stay tuned for the Macy's Christmas Light Show and down town fun.
