Gee, we're getting good at riding trains into cities. Today we took the train into the historic area of Philadelphia. The station was about 20 minutes from our campground. Highlights of the day were the Liberty Bell and seeing the actual chair that George Washington sat in when signing the Declaration Of Independence. All the sites are close together and nicely run by the National Park Service. Commercialism has been kept out it. (the chair picture is George's chair)
Comments from Eldon: You could feel the history - from the architecture to the streets to the monuments. Everything was free too - our best tax dollars are to the National Parks. The Philly cheese steak was as good as I've heard.
Comments from Larry: Once again, spent the day in the container. They let me out when they get to the campground at night - whoop-de-doo - too many dogs around this one.
