Philadelphia: Part 3

On Sunday the weather was sunny, windy and COLD! We ran around the city to as many sights as we could see until Hannah could no longer feel her face!

This is a "ghost house" of what Ben Franklin's house used to look like. Unfortunately after he died his family did not want to be burdened with the upkeep of the home so they sold it. The person who bought it obviously did not realize what a cool guy Ben Franklin was so it was torn down.


Elfreth's Alley
Elfreth's Alley is our nation’s oldest residential street. It is a skinny little alley that has about 20 or so homes. They are private residences at this time. I thought this place was really charming!

Liberty Bell
I always thought the Liberty Bell was outside. Little did I know...it is inside! Can you see Hannah with the bell?
