3 great things you might not have known:
- we've got the most happening beer scene on the east coast.
- art! if you're in philly on the first friday of the month, you should make your way to old city to check out all of the galleries and local arts. the museum may have the picassos, but the artists coming out of philadelphia are just as groundbreaking.
- City living is fantastic. cheap & delicious local foods at reading terminal market, as well as tons of farmers markets. cheap & entertaining movies at the Trocadero and the Roxy. Or laying in Rittenhouse (or Washington) Square and reading a book from Fox bookstore!

haha too funny... I do vaguely remember a commercial like that. The aquarium and science center are definitely awesome, too.
And I love the Rodin Museum in Philly! -

I was going to post for Baltimore but then I saw that you had beat me to it! Great lists! I would add that we are proud to have Charm City Cakes, the Inner Harbor, and Fort McHenry, which inspired F. Scott Fitzgerald to write the star spangled banner!

I went to Hershey Park last year for the first time! It was my one year anniv. with my ex, and we had alot of fun. Probably would've had more fun if I had went when I was still little though.
