Cha and I made an impromptu trip to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for an overnight stay at Omni Independence Park Hotel last Sun...It was freezing all the way...even the water puddles on the roads and the water droplets on the tree branches freezed to motionless. We toured the downtown area, taking lots of pics in the State of Independence for eg. the second bank of the US, Independence Hall, Liberty Bell, Alfreths Alley and City Hall. Decided to cut short the trip the next day, cuz it was simply too cold liao...my hands were aching becuz of the chill lor! But overall..it's a nice retreat for both of us..and hor Chaa and I cannot stop watching the tv in the hotel, cuz we are simply too deprived of tv for months liao! heh..
