It's HARVEY...YEAH!! Rolling right into Philly, PA and into a fantastic apartment with an amazing patio and rooftop (almost as good as the hostess herself!)

Snack time

ree
Stop Forty-Two: Harvey's House

Check out this view and the movement is constant

ree

How many things can one see within walking distance of this spot? TOO many to count! We walked through the Independence Hall Visitors' Center and saw an unfamiliar instrument. He asked the Human Bear what song she wanted him to play and her request was "Take It Easy" and he said, "The Eagles?" yes, that's the one. haha So we stood and listened to this for a bit.

Forty-Three: Independence Hall Visitors' Center: 599 Market St, Philadelphia, PA 19106

Oh, I was beginning to wonder when we would find another one...

ree

We learned some cool things about paints from this guy.

ree

Rocky is all over the place and even though she doesn't get it, she's always willing to do a goofy pose to make her Daddy smile. I told her he would laugh at this if she acted like a fighter.

ree
Her boxing face...

A gigantic Ben Franklin head

ree

Just walking along, you can see Ben Franklin's grave and tours going on as you walk by. Apparently, he coined the term, "a penny saved is a penny earned" so people throw pennies on his grave. The irony here is overwhelming to me.

ree

In typical Human Bear luck, it happened to be flag day and we happened to be walking by Betsy Ross' House where they were allowing free entrance into the museum for the day!

ree
Stop Forty-Four: Betsy Ross House 239 Arch St, Philadelphia, PA 19106

ree

A penny press IN HER HOUSE!

ree

George Washington's House when he was the president before the building of the White House.

ree

Trying to eat, shop or navigate in a market setting is INTENSE but we tried it!

ree
Stop Forty-Five: Market Street

and somehow ended up here...a black and white cookie just like the Human Bear!

ree
The Famous Fourth Street Cookie Company

ree

Back to the balcony and wind and a blanket can entertain for HOURS!

Found an awesome shirt shop on the way home so we got a few things.

ree

We got to meet Chris and got an excellent home cooked meal for the first time in a long time. Thank you!

ree

Living that Cannoli life! Thank you Chris for picking these up for us:) Apparently you have to try cannoli's when in Philly.

ree
What? Is there something on my face?

Getting some knowledge about the city

ree

Reunited and it feels so gooooood!

ree

This was the view I woke up to and as I saw this from the bed I got so excited and went to see if the Human Bear and Beast Mode wanted to go watch the sun come up.

ree

There were some groans and teenage sounding grunts at how offensive it was to have sun in their faces at 5:15


ree

So I enjoyed some coffee and views by myself:) Enjoy these shots...

ree

After the sun was mostly up, I finally looked up...oh hey, it's me and the cars on the street!

ree

Day Two: She loves to lead, even when she doesn't know where she's going!

ree

This is for Mrs. Megan and Mrs. Ginger! Check out these awesome gardens.

ree

Looking good ladies!

ree


ree
Stop Forty-Six: The Liberty Bell

ree

Just getting a few things done before heading out of town!

ree

Thank you so much Kathryn Harvey for hosting us and making us feel so taken care of and comfy. When we need a cool spot to stay, we know who to call! We appreciate it all:)
