The trip to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania was really fun because we saw a lot of cool, historic artifacts like the Liberty Bell.

Everybody woke up early like at 5:00 to get to the bus. On the bus we played on our electronics and watched movies. The time passed so fast and Boom, we were crossing the Ben Franklin Bridge arriving at Philadelphia.

We first visited the Liberty Bell. We had a tour guide. I learned that the bell didn’t crack itself, it had a crack in it because when the workers were trying to fix the little dents and cracks on the bell, they accidentally made a mistake and make a larger crack in the bell.

After we took some pictures and after a while, we went to the Independence hall. It was really cool because we saw where the United States Constitution and Declaration Of Independence were debated and signed. There were chairs and desks etc. There was a person telling us about everything. For example, he said that some of the chairs were antique and some weren’t so we should be careful not to touch them even though they were out of reach. The antique chairs did look really old and rusty with a lot of marks.

After a while, we went to eat lunch.

After we ate our delicious lunch, we went to the Constitution Center to watch a show titled Freedom Rising about how America came to be. The constitution Center is also the place where we got off in the beginning and where we ate lunch. The Constitution Center was kind of like a museum. There was like objects and things to do all around you. What I remember me doing was there was a place where you had to write what you would do if you were president on post-its with pencils. He he he. I wrote no homework.

After that we headed towards the coach bus to head back home.

This trip was really fun and exciting!
