After we discovered that the Independance Hall tickets weren't available for a close enough time slot, we decided to take a Philly Duck Tour. Here are the DUKWs they use.

Here are some pictures I took along the route. The ride was bouncy and Becca took the outside seat so I didn't try to take a lot of shots. This was supposedly a colonial style street.
I thought this door was cute.
A cemetary.
I think she said this square is where the Declaration of Independence was read aloud to a crowd.
There's Ben Franklin in a toga over the door.
The ride was much smoother on the water.
A ferry boat.
The battleship USS New Jersey.
The Ben Franklin Bridge.
We drove by this building. The lights were out and lots of people were standing around. Perhaps it was a fire drill.

The Philly tour isn't as goofy as the Boston version.
