The kiddos and I ventured into the city alone... yikes! Bob was under the weather so he decided not to join us. Driving to the skating rink was a little scary... made one wrong turn - over the Ben Franklin Bridge, oops! Only a $5 dollar toll detour - but hey, we made it safe and sound - and that is all that matters!!
We made it to the Blue Cross River Rink!
I love this tradition we started years ago! Let's hope for no falls!
After skating Mom used the Uber app and got us to the city! Wahoo!! Found the downtown locations to see while in the city! ...and we didn't get lost :)
Love Park
We stopped at Reading Terminal for some yummy desserts but forgot to take a picture there... oops!
Next up, big tree on our way to Macy's...
Found the Christmas Carol... uh-oh... need a reservation. I pulled out my phone and quickly 'made a reservation' for the 3:30 showing. We were one of 4 families there... not sure we really needed a reservation but we did it! We took a quick trip through Scrooge's journey so we could make our final stop by 4!
Although the light show was only being played one time a day at 11:30 we didn't get to see the actual show, but the lights were coming off and on as we walked through Macy's
In case anyone was wondering... we made it to the Comcast Light Show with time to spare! Wahoo!
Successfully uber'd back to Penn's Landing and got a perfect spot to see the fireworks! 5:02... 58 minutes to wait
Triumphant New Year's Celebration was the theme for the show
And then the scary ride home... I did well! Although it was crazy traffic I made it home AND made no detours! Whoot-whoot!
