Butts and bells: both have cracks.

We got up waaaaaaaa-aaaaaaaaaaaaay too early this morning, groggily made our way to the airport, and flew from KC to Milwaukee (pausing just long enough to get some sausage at the airport) and from Milwaukee to Philadelphia. When the flight landed (and we woke up) we checked into our hotel, then took the train into town. Apparently we're having a Nor'-Easter, so it rained alllllll day long. The girls' new shoes were sopping wet, as were mine and Jason's, but no matter. We still managed to check out the Liberty Bell (no longer housed in a phone booth on the side of the road!) , Independence Hall (with new and improved facade-hiding scaffolding!) and had cheesesteaks at Jim's on South Street (mmmmmmmmmmmm!). Somehow I also managed to procure six boxes of Tastykakes, fit them all into a flat rate priority mail box, and shipped them home to myself. (nice.) Finally, we came back to our hotel dripping wet and exhausted after a fantastic day.
