Philadelphia

I had a quick trip to Philly for work. For the first couple of days, it was raining, cold, and windy. One evening, we had a reception and tour at the Mutter Museum. Photos weren't allowed inside, and it was dark and raining outside, so I didn't bring my camera. The conference ended around 1:30 and my flight wasn't until almost 6:00, which meant that I had a little bit of time to explore the city before I had to head to the airport. I've seen the Liberty Bell before and didn't feel like standing in line, but here are a couple of picture of Independence Hall.


You could ride around the area in a carriage if you were so inclined.
I also briefly wandered through Chinatown. The conference had provided lunch, so I wasn't hungry and didn't try any restaurants there.
I don't remember what this building was, but it was pretty interesting looking and right near City Hall.
