It was a beautiful April spring day in downtown Philadelphia and we were enjoying the sun as we left the science museum and walked across the street to the Logan Square fountain. We walked further down along the Parkway which was full of people and headed over to the splash pad in Sister Cities Park across the street from the Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul. I haven't been in that church in well over fifty years. I thought about taking a peek but it was closing as I pondered going over there.
Henry and Clara played in the splash pad and got wet while we sat and watched them. Violet was enjoying herself looking around and also discovered her feet which kept her busy for awhile. The kids played for about an hour and then we headed through the park and over to the car. Fortunately there were some clothes for the kids to change out of their wet clothes and into something dry. I was very impressed with the park and the little restaurant there.
Todd was fortunate to find a close parking space just outside the park on Vine street just off the square. He knew about that potential parking area and had parked there before on other occasions. We went back up the Parkway to Kelly Drive and on to Lincoln Drive up to Mt Airy. It was a very pleasant day between the museum and the park.
