Then off to a day filled with museums and American history- all museums had free entry today with Veterans Day- learnt so much about the war of Independence, the American Constitution & the Civil War with visits to- the Liberty Bell, the National Constitution Centre, Benjamin Franklin's grave at Christ Church Burial Ground, historic Elfreth's Alley of homes, American Revolution Museum, Carpenter's Hall, and finished with Independence Square with tours and talks at Supreme Court Chamber, Congress Hall and Independence Hall. We finished the day after dark at the Christmas light display Franklin Square.Read more
