It’s really hard to take photos at night, but I hope you enjoy my efforts here.
Here’s a shot of Sean listening to Emma, the tour guide down in Philadelphia last night. We walked about 1.5 miles throughout the darkened streets of the Old City area, something neither of us had done before! Here we are at Dr. Philip Syng Physick’s elegant house and she was telling us about him being the father of surgery and how some gory stuff about waiting for bodies to be disposed. It was rough back then.
Where two thousand people are buried. It looks like a park and has sidewalks. Unfortunately some homeless guys were on the benches. It’s suppose to be really haunted here. I felt a bit weird walking around here. At the far end was the stump left from the ‘Moon tree’. It was grown from a seed that went to the moon and back and planted for the Bicentennial. There is a sapling from it planted now.
Pine Street Cemetery (pretty sure) where Nicholas Cage filmed a scene from the movie ‘National Treasure’.
A quaint home on Pine Street. Not sure what home, but a witch was suppose to reside on this street centuries ago.
A trip to Philly wouldn’t be complete without a visit to The Liberty Bell!
I don’t recall seeing it in this pavilion. We didn’t get to go in any buildings or cemeteries which would have been more interesting. Independence Hall is somewhat shrouded in the front as it goes through renovation
There are still cobblestone streets. Rubber against cobblestone sounds strange
The building where we were suppose to have dinner (grabbed a slice of pizza), but I forgot it closed at 6 pm. It would have been a great place to look around as there were some stores there too.
We did park right next door.
Suppose to be the most haunted street in Philly-Pine Street. Full apparitions were spotted here.
I did see a few pinpoints of light in the two upper window (left and middle) of Carpenter’s Hall. People say they have seen a face in the first window. A few people living here heard footsteps and pounding on the walls.
If you click and enlarge, you can see the lights too.
Awesome statues:
Commander John Barry-Father of the American Navy
and
The Signer-George Clymer-signed both the Constitution and Declaration of Independence
And finally-a graveyard you just don’t see every day-St. Mary’s

We did a ghost walk in St. Augustine on our last beach vacation, my kids loved it and we’re going to do another this summer when we go back 🙂
FUN stuff!!! Great picture!
A ghost walk sounds like fun, especially in October. Too bad they did not allow you in cemeteries….seems like ghosts and cemeteries just go together.
I just read about one of the lighthouses I toured last weekend and it is supposedly haunted. Seems there were big Indian battles there and some of the spirits still visit. I did not see anything to indicate this, but it still left me with a spooky feeling!
