Going home from the game..

Philadelphia in the December sunshine....

That statue

There is a wealth of American history in Philadelphia , including a church where 5 US presidents worshipped, Philly being the capital for a few years, however there is also a statue of Rocky next to the famous stairs.
They have moved the statue a few times as it was not doing great business....

ARMED SERVICES APPRECIATION DAY

Spent 5 days in Philadelphia, as an early Christmas present, and attended my first home game in 23 years of following the Philadelphia Eagles.
As is obvious it was on the cold side, and we lost, HOWEVER, I lucked out on trouser choice( I`ve found this hardly ever happens) as it was armed services appreciation day and nobody spilled beer on me,or pushed me around in the beer queue....
