Day 6: Philadelphia Highlights

We enjoyed breakfast at the Home2Suites and then had to rush a bit to make it to our noon tour at Independence Hall. We actually didn't make it to the noon tour, but they let us join the 12:20 tour so it was no problem. After Independence Hall, we saw the Liberty Bell, toured the Mint, and then went to Betsy Ross' house. 

Grant then went and got the rental car and we loaded up our stowed luggage from the hotel. The kids and I snacked and browsed at the Reading Terminal Market while Grant went to his Philadelphia Office meeting. We then met Grant and his local partners at ElMei at 6:15pm for dinner and then the Chinese Latern Festival. The kids did great, even though they didn't love the food. It was delish though! It was a drizzly evening, but the Chinese Latern Festival in Franklin Park was still so beautiful. We stayed until about 9:30pm and then started the drive to DC. 

Grant did a great job driving and we rolled into DC around 1am-ish. We all crashed at the Embassy Suites George Town and slept great.
