    We got up early in the morning to go to a church service. The chances that it would be very touristic were fifty-fifty, as we found the recommendation for the gospel church in a travel guide as a "secret gem". It turned out to be an absolute hidden gem, we were almost the only non-poc. The church was right next to the birthplace of Martin Luther King Jr and to a memorial center. Half of the people were dressed up very elegant, the other half was wearing college and fraternity tracksuits, as it was college day, so students from all over came to represent their college. Every one of them were called out loud. A labour union was also there, and there were several guests. Before the service the governor of Pennsylvania also held a speech. The service was very emotional and touching, people singing, cheering and clapping all the time. A newborn baby was also blessed during the ceremony. If church was like this in Hungary, I would go every week probably.
    After dropping off Marco at the airport we went to the Coca-Cola museum, where we tried at least 30 different soft drinks from all over the world produced by Coca-Cola. The craziest was the plum Fanta from China, which tasted like BBQ sauce. At the end I was kinda sick and never wanted to see coke again.
    We went to an observation deck and we walked around. The city was dead, only homeless people were walking around, and there was not much to see.
