East Coast Trip (Philadelphia)

The East Coast trip continued to Philadelphia, PA. This was my first time back since 2015 and I wanted to revisit some of the places I saw in only one day.

From Secaucus, NJ, Tito Noel, Tita Malyn, Brianna, and I drove about two hours, stopping at Legends Diner to have breakfast with my Uncle Carlito and his family.

Upon arrival to Philadelphia, Tito Noel had some work to do, so the three of us went sightseeing because this was their first time there while enduring the freezing cold weather.

Destinations included the following landmarks:

-Liberty Bell

-Independence Hall

-Betsy Ross House

-Chinatown

-Reading Terminal Market

-City Hall

-Love Park

-Logan Circle

-Eastern State Penitentiary

-Philadelphia Zoo

-Philadelphia Museum of Art/Rocky Steps

-Penn’s Landing

On the way back to Virginia, we had to stop by my brother’s alma mater Drexel University. Of course, no trip to Philadelphia would be complete without a Philly cheesesteak!

Although I got to see everything I planned on visiting, the only things I didn’t get a chance to do was to ride the subway, take a tour of the Philadelphia Zoo, and visit Valley Forge and the King of Prussia Mall, but that’ll have to wait until the next trip!
