Dear f'list: Philadelphia?
melted_snowball and I will be in Philadelphia this weekend (Friday through Sunday). We're staying downtown, very close to City Hall.
I'm free on my own for Saturday during the day and probably Sunday afternoon till 5pm or so.
What kind of half-day adventure would you have me go on? I like getting lost, trying new stuff, seeing art and found stuff that I might photograph. boutell, I'm looking right at you here. :)
I'm more into the idea of walking tours than museums, on this trip. I looked in the philadelphia community and did get the impression that if I ate mammal, I'd be set for cheesesteaks. I've already done all the Liberty Bell / patriot tour stuff I care to- but I was thinking these architecture tours might be interesting.
I've already got sulle_stelle's recommendation for dinner at "Nineteen". And I know that First Friday is happening in 40 galleries in the downtown core in the evening- thanks boutell.
LJ is awesome for this kinda stuff- any other suggestions?
