Anyone in the Philly area???

Hello All, Allan and I will be in Philly July 4th til the 6th. If any of you are available to get together for a drink or something let me know. Also, if you can recommend any events that are going on in the area I would appreciate it. I love a good outside market and or festival..let me know thanks.!!

Good luck on getting folks together KK...(It's been my experience that them Philly folks show very little "Brotherly Love"...which I believe is their namesake...)........................

But Japii is always dependable for getting together and having and showing a good time!!!

lol..Japii picked me up from the airport the last time i was there and toured me around the city..He's great..i'm trying to get him and his wife to come out for a drink one day while we there..otherwise we will enjoy our lil trip..

Hey Kittie Kat!!!!      Long time no see... good to see ya

Kel,

get on yelp.com and citysearch.com
 
Both are very useful and on yelp you can post discussion topics/questions.    People will always respond and tell you what's going on in the city.

thanks. i'll check it out.

Hi,

They have this Welcome America Event every 4th of July week.  Also, I would recommend the National Constitutional Center - its a very neat museum thats about 5 years old now.  The African-American Museum is nice too. 

African American Heritage: Freedom’s Trail - Visitors can retrace the trail of the Underground Railroad with a self-guided, driving tour provided by the Valley Forge Convention and Visitors Bureau. Full tour available online. (610) 834-7969
