In the not-too-distant past, the statue of William Penn was one of the first things I'd notice when approaching the city. At that time, no buildings in "Philly" were to be higher than the statue. It's now dwarfed by tall buildings.
The third photo is a winner!
ReplyDeleteIt has been quite a few years since I traveled into Philadelphia! Both of my parents were born in Pennsylvania.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos and you couldn't have picked a more lovely day for your visit. Thank you so much for hosting!

What a commanding view of Philadelphia from across the river. I remember, in the 1940's riding in the family car from north Jersey to Baltimore. There were no freeways and few tall buildings along the way. My memorable views of the river were from the Delaware Water Gap, way before it became a National Monument..
ReplyDeleteLove the spectacular views.
ReplyDeleteHappy Monday and thanks for hosting, Sue.
Hugs and blessings 💜💚💛💙
Love the last photo, thanks for sharing....
ReplyDeleteI did not know that's what it meant. How interesting. I guess aspirational....
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your photos, I do like to see what other countries around the world are like.
ReplyDeleteGreat views and bridge!
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting
Amazing photos
ReplyDeleteBridges never fail to impress me. Beautiful buildings in the last picture.
ReplyDeleteLove Philly! Thanks for hosting!
ReplyDeleteThese are very beautiful photos! So large bridges always fascinate me very much - especially the other view of the area that you have then!

ReplyDeleteI have been on that bridge. Slightly terrifying. I am not a fan of driving over bridges! Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots of a beautiful day.
ReplyDeleteThank you for hosting the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Wordless Wednesday. ♥
Great shots. I haven’t been there since I was a child.
ReplyDeleteWe loved Philadelphia when we visited. We crossed over that bridge, too!
ReplyDeleteThese are lovely photos. The first of the skyline is my favourite.
ReplyDeleteWhile newer tall buildings can be beautiful on the skyline, it is sad that they drown out the smaller older ones.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cloud and (in the first shot) reflection photos. The first photo is my favorite. I haven't been to Philly in 21 years, I just realized. Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com
