Last day in Philly

Today I was greeted by snow all day which just made the whole day better though losing sensation in my hands and feet kind of sucked.

I strolled around the city with the intention of just seeing the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall but before I knew it I ended up in Chinatown which is the other end of downtown. Being in Chinatown of course I had to stop at my favourite restaurant for some BBQ pork and fried rice. I then continued to stroll around the city with a stupid grin on my face in complete awe of the snow and how beautiful this city really is and how much I am going to miss it.

It's crazy how at home I feel in a city that is a million miles away from my real home, but I know I will be leaving a piece of my heart behind... It just means I will have to come back and collect it some day.

After my walk it was time to go and see my Flyers play one last time :( 

My seats were really good and got to sit with some cool Grandpas who were fascinated as to why and how I was travelling on my own.

Anyway this was the best game of hockey I have ever watched/been to mainly because we beat Pittsburgh (our biggest rivals), I bought a puck that was used to score a goal by one of my favourite players and we got into the playoffs! The moment we won can only be described as electric and wild. The crowd was insane and there were high fives all around. 

After the game I waited forever for an Uber because I didn't want to pay surge pricing and then headed out for a cheesesteak and some Franklin Fountain ice cream.

Anyway I am now in Atlantic City, there isn't much to do as a lot of the shops are closed due to winter just ending. So all I have been doing is eating, sleeping, drinking and hitting up the pokies.
