This morning we started off at the infamous Reading Market! There was so much good stuff to choose from we just couldn't pick!! We wished we could try one of everything. Even the stuff at the fish and meat markets! Finn decided on a quarter mufalata, I decided on a chicken leg, some eggs and fruit, Mama had an iced coffee and a chocolate croissant and then Jax decided he wanted a chicken leg too so we went back for one for him and Finn too! Everything was delicious. Mama said we could go back there tomorrow too!

After the market we headed across the street to the convention center to check out Daddy's work space. We got to see where all the action is. Okay, no action, just donuts and a bunch of bored looking people in suits...we were out of there. Too much to see, too much to do! But boy were we happy to see Daddy for a little while!

Then we met our cousins outside for some Philly tourist time! Andrea, Kristin, Brooke and Stu met us outside the convention center and we headed for Love Park. Unfortunately there were a bunch of hippies protesting for Bernie Sanders or something (isn't he out of the race?) and trying to hand us a bunch of pamphlets and stickers...we declined. But we sure did enjoy the splash fountains!!!

Then we headed down the road, soaking clothes and all! Mama brought us nice, dry clothes to change in to but we decided the wet ones would feel much better on this super hot day! So, we stayed in the wet clothes and they helped! We got to see the city, where the Declaration of Independence was written, the Liberty Bell!!

Then we stopped in to a Mexican place that Andrea and Kristin knew to get out of the heat and eat some lunch! We were all a little hot and cranky at this point. But you know what made it better? Our very first ride in a taxi cab!!! We got to take a Taxi back to the hotel after lunch

When we got back to the hotel we took a little dip in the hotel pool. Then we had a little work out in the fitness center. Then Mama said it was time to take a rest. We all went back to the room to relax a little after this busy day!

After my little nap and my brothers rest we headed to The Industry Bar to meet up with Kristin, Stu, Brooke, Andrea and Geoff. It is right in their neighborhood and not far from us either! They had great food and drinks and we were so happy to get to hang out with our family again. It was a great night, but boy were we beat! We said goodbye and wished Philadelphia good night again!
