A Visit to "The City of Brotherly Love"

Friday, we went to Philadelphia to visit with dad's sister, her husband and their son. We had yummy lunch with them, and then headed out for a brisk walk to the Kimmel Theater to hear the Philadelphia Orchestra with Vadim Repin, the solo violinist.

We walked the streets to and from the concert. The weather was perfect and the flowers blooming gloriously!


On our way we passed the first hospital in the United States

We had a perfect seat with a great view of the orchestra

This is a video of the encore piece the soloist played. The video isn't of Philadelphia Orchestra but it is exactly how Mr. Repin played for us. Enjoy! :)



On our way back we stopped at a Italian pastry shop! mmmm.....

Do we look tired?! :)
