Although we recently enjoyed six whole days in my hometown of Philadelphia, sadly, only two of them were dedicated to sightseeing. We spent one day downtown and one day in the ‘burbs revisiting my old neighborhood, junior and senior high schools, etc.

On our “downtown day,” I snapped this shot at the Liberty Bell, which is housed in a stunning building with lots of historical placards that help visitors from around the world grasp the small bell’s significance in American history. I like the way Independence Hall looms in the background.
