moving on

so once again we are loaded up and moving on. this time it's a short drive. since we only have this one afternoon evening in Philadelphia, no detours or side trips *sigh* so it really will only take us about 2 hours. hope we don't miss anything we should have seen on a byway :)
we are just going to hit the high points today, but at least it will be a taste. it's supposed to rain all day so i'm concerned about our time exploring ben f's life at least independence hall and liberty bell are inside.
jc has done well on his food tour of '08. he has had his ny hotdog (sadly not from gray papaya), pizza, and a deli experience, with the added bonus of a chinese meal in chinatown, street chinese sweetcakes, an italian ice, a street vendor pretzel, and a falafel (from which he abstained) also from the street. he has plans for philly and dc food too. this trip has taught us 2 things about him. he's destined to be a soldier because he travels on his stomach & it's a good thing (or sad from his perspective) people don't sell food on the street all over okc.
