An impromptu visit to downtown Phili since it was a beautiful day and a little too cool to visit the pool on opening day. We surprised the kids with a train trip, a trip to China(town) which included some fun knick knack stores remarkably like the “real thing” and an amazing lunch, and a visit to Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell. Beautiful day and a fun outing. We’re beat!

Admiring a man’s craft–making characters out of clay that were attached to chopsticks. He didn’t speak English, only held up 5 fingers to indicate how much they cost.

Posing in front of the Liberty Bell. 3 out of 4 kids isn’t bad.
