Elfreth’s Alley

So VCS has a new secondary secretary who had been to Philadelphia before. So she was appalled to find out that I had not ever been to, and had never heard of, Elfreth's Alley. Sad, but true.

So I made one of my friends accompany me down to Old City to take in this wondrous site: The alleged oldest residential street in America.

I liked it so much I went back a second time. See, I thought it would be funny to send a postcard back from Elfreth's Alley, and while purchasing said postcard, set my camera down on the counter. It wasn't until later that evening when I wanted to take a picture that I realized it was gone. The problem being, I was flying out the next morning.

Fortunately the good people who run the Elfreth's Alley Visitor Center found my camera and even answered my phone call and gave me my camera before opening hours. What a great place to lose a camera!
