Philadelphia Trip with Dad

Well, we went to Philly for the NFDA (National Funeral Directors Convention) but we stayed a few extra days and went sight seeing.

Below: (L-R Dad, me and Tim, my boss)


Above: This was one of the first things in town that we happened upon. The "Rocky" Statue.
Below: This angel is at Penn Station and it is featured in several movies. To put the size in perspective, I am 5 foot 7 inches.

Above: I am standing in front of a building that was built by Benjamin Franklin. It was his rental property and it sits next to the first post office which was also built by him. The two buildings are separated by a drive that I am standing in and leads to his home and workshop.

Below: That itty bitty ship in the background is the USS New Jersey.
Below: We were walking along the river and staring at the battleship when we saw this sailboat. It is a HUGE sailboat though. We were looking at it when this guy came out and said that they only gave tours on the weekends and he was just there cleaning the boat but he let us on anyways and gave us a tour.
Captain Rick here :)

Below: After the sailboat we also got to see a submarine. My dad and I were standing in front of the beds wondering how someone actually slept in them.
These doors are soooo small. It is just like in the movies, you grab the handle bar above the door and swing your feet through.
