What An Odd Thing!
I had to twist my husband's arm to go on the "Lights of Liberty" tour.He was like, "are you crazy? How cheesy will THAT be?" We went to America's birthplace for America's birthday in July of 04. He finally agreed, and we, along with 25 or so others, set off at dusk under the leadership of a lady who took her bell-ringing duties VERY seriously.But it turned out to be fun, as we walked from venue to venue to see the slide shows on the walls of historic areas, our group got a little rowdy. I guess we were just all caught up in the 4th of July atmosphere. Our leader was ringing her bell furiously to get our collective attention. And on the last slide pic, the celebration of the Founding Father's new country coincided with a very loud 2004 Philly celebration. Awesome! FYI, I have never met such friendly & helpful people anywhere to top those in Philly, everyone was fabulous. 'Cept the bell-ringer lady!
