Philadelphia
Its over a mth that i returned fr Philly, here's e parts i remember most :
* Conference at Downtown Marriot.
* Ol' style BnB hse that i stayed :) . Belle Vista. A pink room with lots of hunting potraits n depression era furniture.. which my cleveland host was laughing so hearing abt it. But then, the Bn B was in the No.1 voted neighbourhood in Philly. And indeed, it was a homely n wonderful street.
Also, i met 3 sporeans at the BnB, such a coincidence. We had some pasta eat-in dinners together!
* Wholefoods - huge supermart selling everything organic n wholesome! i went Gaga !!
* Philly cheesesteak
* Wonderful Guide at the Independence Hall! Wonderful dulcimer musician at the Visitor's centre.
* ROdin's 'Gates of Hell' at e Rodin Museum.. an experience to see. Pictures n mini-replicas don't do justice.
* Poor Homeless folks.
3 i recall vividly, 1-a crying man, which i later saw the same exact expression in Rodin's sculptures. 2- a homeless man with the Greenest eyes 3- a teary woman outside the marriot, relating her story to a symphathetic business visitor to the city.
