I love Philly.

South Street: Both the Steak Sandwich places are great. Downey’s Irish Pub is awesome and an excellent pick up joint.

Everything on Ben Franklin Pkwy.

Rittenhouse square.

City Hall

Liberty Bell

Independence Hall.

The Fed.

Independence Mall

Synagogue

Amtrack. Just beautiful inside.

The Armory

Old Philly. You have to walk this!

There is just so much more but, Philly is beautiful

And yeah, I make fun it occasionally

My Hubby and I are running down there soon for a couple of nights. I think it’s a wonderful place with tons of stuff to see and do - we are going to revisit Eastern State Penn for “Terror Behind The Walls”, which should be a fun way to see it.

My concern though is now that they’ve broken ground on this new museum I may have to change reservations. We are booked about 2 blocks from that. Crap. Noise and construction traffic are not conducive to a fun get-a-way.

Have you ever tried that City Tavern? I know such places are tourist traps, but we had lunch there a year or so back and the food was terrific.

Hubby always goes for one of those steak sandwiches - but he’s doing that Atkins thing now, so he may have to pass this time. That or modify it before he eats it. A cheese-steak sandwich with no bun. :) He’s tried both Geno’s and Pat’s, and likes them equally.

I’m making him go to that Mutters Museum without me - he loves that stuff, but it gives me the fidgets.
