MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Am off to philadelphia for work and added 3 days of holidays. What are the best things to do there? Am not all too interested in American history, I'm afraid.. So far, I want to do the Mural walk and visit the art museum (including running up the steps.. 😉 )
Any tips welcome...
i got very worried about the thread title for a second there.
You leave Philly alone. He's suffered enough, you monster!
Eat a Philly cheese steak sandwich.
If your not into history, and there is a lot there (Liberty bell etc), hang out on South Street between 2nd and 8th Avenue, thats where all the bars used to be when I was last there...... but that was while back.
IIRC you need to "chill it out, maxing, relaxing all cool and then shoot some, b-ball outside a school"
Everything else you need is here: [url=
124 Bus from Market and 13th to the King of Prussia Mall (largest shopping mall in the US)
Is baseball still on?
Ben Franklin museum?
And if you do nothing else, try and go to the [url= http://www.barnesfoundation.org/ ]Barnes[/url]
For fun, R6 train to Ardmore and go to [url= http://www.milkboyphilly.com/ ]Milkboy[/url] coffee shop - looks like there is now one downtown too. But Ardmore's is the original.
Want any more, just drop me a line. I go several times a year for work
EDIT and whatever you do, DON'T eat a Philly cheesesteak
[s]shoot some B-ball, outside a school?
whistle for a cab?

i like your work Wozza.
Be careful though, 'cos there are some guys who are up to no good, startin' makin' trouble in the neighbourhood.
The film Rocky was based in Philly right?
Only one thing to do then....
Find those steps and run up them.
Preferably with small children following behind you
Watch out, "Get in one little fight and your mom will get scared."
its only a cab ride from bel air, you could go from philly to visit big philly 🙂 careful though, those cabs are rare!
the good guys dress in black, remember that.
damn you will smith and your infections pop rap!
*is singing the whole of 'men in black' word for word in his head'
Find those steps and run up them
and once you have, sit at the top and watch lots of fat americans nearly have a heart attack trying.
well thats what I did anyway...
new york is doable for a day trip as well.
Go see where the declaration of independence was signed, and see the liberty bell. Cheesesteaks are awesome. There's an indoor market that does great sandwiches too. And a trip to the baseball is ace!
I worked there for a month as a med student - pics [url= http://www.flickr.com/photos/legolam/sets/72057594120450888/ ]here[/url]

I did that. Huh look at that, a bell.
Didn't really do much for me!
