Downtown Pennsylvania

Scott just finished reading a book about
Benjamin Franklin and was excited to see this
in the visitors center.
We had visited Philadelphia once before so we didn't spend a lot of time looking at the various sites.  Mostly we just walked around enjoying the beauty of the area and the wonderful historic significance of this wonderful place.  We did go into the visitors center and saw a movie that talked about the events that lead up to the creation of this great nation.  While in the visitors center it was fun to watch the various children who were working on earning their Junior Ranger badges and it reminded me of Caleb and Ava who always do that whenever they visit these great places.  I also experienced a little reality when we came upon a crime scene that had been cordoned off. I was glad that only the yellow tape remained and all signs of the crime has been washed away.
