Jeff's Philly Visit

Jeff came from North Carolina to visit us this weekend!!  We have not seen Jeff in forever so we were super excited to spend time with him.  We have also been dying to see the inside of the Eastern State Penitentiary in downtown Philly, so we decided to take a scary tour with some friends Thursday night.  The old prison was turned into a haunted tour for the Halloween season.  The history, the already scary setting, and the super creepy actors made the haunted tour amazingly scary and fun!!

Waiting for our tour at the bar across the street!

They had scary people walking around out front to scare visitors in line.  Some were definitely scarier than others!

On Friday, Alex and Jeff played frolf at a local park.  Later, we went on a walk with Hilary and her pen-pal doggie Mistie in Manayunk.  Jeff had his first Philly cheese steak for dinner from our favorite local place, Dalessandro's.  You can't visit Philly without a cheese steak :)


We took Jeff to all the touristy places downtown on Saturday.


Ben Franklin's grave!!  I threw a penny for every class... I need all the luck I can get!
