philly51 0 #8 March 28, 2006 There's quite a bit to do in Philly. Independence Hall, Art Museum, Liberty Bell, Italian Market, Olde City and a bar on every corner. If you need a ride, PM me. Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, Shouting "...holy shit...what a ride!"

Andrea, at that time of day, I'm less than an hour away. If you need a pickup at the airport and a ride to CrossKeys, I'll be happy to play taxi. Just let me know. I'll put it on my calendar, and I'll be there. rlIf you don't know where you're going, you should know where you came from. Gullah Proverb Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'll just get a car if I have to. I'll go see the Liberty Bell with all the school kids. I'll blend in, they'll think I'm a chaperone.

RhondaLea 4 #19 March 28, 2006 Well, I think I can remember enough to show you where to get a decent cheesesteak and then give you the grand tour of South Street and Penn's Landing and Newmarket, but if you want to see anything else, I'm probably useless. The last time I was in Philadelphia, it was to get Beck's tongue pierced. I haven't worked there since before she was born. But you let me know what you want to do, and we'll do it. rlIf you don't know where you're going, you should know where you came from.

SkydiveStMarys 0 #21 March 28, 2006 The best way to see Philly, because traffic can be a nightmare, is by rail.....the elevated train stops right at the airport....if you take a car be prepared to find spots to park more then sight seeing....also..when flying back to Fla....Philly airport is one of the airports that you really do need to give yourself 2 1/2 to 3 hours check in time...they are doing construction and have merged the check in line into one big one...that was about 6 weeks ago....unless you are flying SouthWest...they have their own terminal.

I think you're still ahead of me with that remark. Will you go see touristy stuff with me? I gotta go run up the steps that Rocky did! Andrea, if you want to be the perfect tourist, who am I to say no? Whatever you want to do is fine with me. I'll pick up a city map the next time I go to the bookstore, and we can do the town.
