12 Hours in Philly

Thank you all for the prayers!  We made it into Philadelphia with little traffic.  It was a little dicey finding a parking spot but God was good there too.  

We began our day in Philly at 9 a.m. at the visitor center where we picked up tickets to see Independence Hall.  We ended our day at 9 p.m. by seeing the statue of George Whitefield in the Quadrangle at the University  of Pennsylvania.   Lunch was real Philadelphia cheesesteaks at Campo's. Dinner was a surprise treat at the City Tavern where George Washington and other members of the Continental Congress ate on a regular basis.  A very exciting stop and delicious food.

Tomorrow we will be traveling into New Jersey for four more history stops and an evening trip to a boardwalk on the Jersey shore.
