Independence Hall

Independence Hall-the place where the Declaration of Independence was signed! Although we weren't able to tour the inside {because we didn't get the free tickets fast enough} it was still neat to just be able to walk around the area and in the courtyard behind the hall. It was a beautiful area, and something cool...the road right in front of Independence Hall is a cobble stone street!



This is the backside of Independence Hall, I love the clock tower/steeple thingamajig. And in front of the Hall happens to be a statue of a founding father {man unknown}.



And this is me, looking inspiring and doing a wonderful representation of the statue of the unknown man. This statue is evident that our Founding Fathers worked really hard to be an inspiration through not only their writing but through their body positioning in their statues. Can't you see the resemblance?

This also happened to be the statue where several "New Englanders" read the Declaration of Independence to us. Very cheesy but none the less still cool.



And this is another picture of the backside of Independence Hall, I couldn't help it...it is such a beautiful area with all of the surrounding trees!


Next stop? Geno's and Pat's for cheese steak awesomeness!
