Quick Trip to Philly

The weekend between Christmas and New Years, we planned a quick overnight trip to Philadelphia.  We got a late start Saturday morning and hit some traffic, but were able to drop by the Liberty Bell five minutes before closing. 
 We then spent the evening on the waterfront at Winterfest and ice skated.

 


 On Sunday morning, we walked over to the Franklin Institute.  We watched a show in the Planetarium about weather on different planets and an Imax movie about Sharks.  We also enjoyed many of the different exhibits, but left some undone for our next visit.  We were really impressed with the Franklin Institute and would highly recommend it!

We ended our trip with a visit to Dave & Busters.  The boys lloved Dave's portion (the games) but were not impressed with Buster's portion (the food).  One other memorable part of our trip was Uber.  Nathan loved taking Uber around the city and meeting the different drivers.  He wants to know if he can use Uber to get around South Riding to meet up with his friends for playdates.  :)
