Philadelphia-Delaware 2014 & 2019

PHILADELPHIA & DELAWARE NOVEMBER 2019

Brandywine Museum in Delaware has one of the top Pre-Raphaelite and Arts & Crafts era collections in the U.S.

PHILADELPHIA & DELAWARE SEPTEMBER 2014

Not new states for either of us, but our parents taking an East Coast Autumn tour was an excuse to visit this area again.  We found a terrific airbnb rental in central Philadelphia with free parking.  We took Amtrak from Boston, and there is a Hertz car rental conveniently located right at the Amtrak station.
