    Good morning travelers.
    I spent a few years driving up to and into Center City Philly. On street parking is patrolled by the nastiest parking enforcement group known to mankind. They're so bad, that there is a cable TV show of the antics.
    IMO, if looking for a cheese steak, just about any cheese steak place on Oregon Avenue is hard to beat. You've got to try one with the Cheese Wiz instead of American, Provolone, or Mozzarella cheese.
    It's ironic that a hose built in the 1780's is old, when most of Europe, a 1780's building is considered new construction. It's all about perspective.
    Chris, one tip for carrying money in big cities, place "some" cash in your pocket, and keep the pocket book under your coat, or better yet, just travel with the required ID and cash. The further north you travel, the more smash and grab vehicle break-ins you encounter.
    Love the music on this video and the different perspective on Philly.
    OBTW, a chain restaurant called Glory Days has/had a cheese steak and chicken cheese steak that's pretty good for a cheese steak that isn't made in Philly.

    Aaron summed up how I feel every time I have to drive into Philly. I live 50 mins away and only go when I have to. I’ll have to make a more concerted effort to go. Unlike Christine, I’m more of a mountain girl than a city one. 🙂

    So glad you visited Elfreth's Alley. My family grew up on Elfreth's Alley. My dad was actually born in a house on Bladen's Court. The first house past the grassy lot on the right used to be my Great Aunt's house. Loved sleepovers with my cousins at her house.

    Philadelphia is such an amazing city. Haven't been there in almost 35 years. My family lived there before I was born. My relatives went to Cardinal Dougherty High School, which was the largest Catholic high school in the world with over 6,000 students - in a high school! They provided an excellent education too and had great teams and world famous marching band. Philadelphia is an American city like no other.

    25yrs in Philly now living in VA. 1. Bridge toll rate was displayed on the toll booth window 😂. 2. Glad the city is much cleaner than before. 3. Up till 70, city charter forbids any building taller than city hall. 4. Ben Franklin points his finger to North Philly because he said that is the rich part of the city but if you stop at Franklin parkway, his finger and position is the biggest joke of the city. 5. Tony Luke has one of the best pork sandwich and Geno and Jim’s are my favorite but try visit Reading Terminal! 😊

I haven’t had a cheesesteak in years but after seeing yours I now have to have one! 👍🏼😋 Love your channel so far! 😃

    A true Philly Cheesesteak does not contain green peppers. Any true Philadelphian will tell you that a cheesesteak is meat, cheese, bread, sometimes wit onion, (drop that "h' on with when ordering) and that's it!

      We were happy with the generic, but once we got the new 5th wheel with the 2750 watts of solar we just didn't use it any more. I think it sat unused for about 6 months and I had trouble starting it. It turned out to just be a sticky spring on the carburetor and after lubing it fired right up! 👍 We ended up finding a new home for it.
