Philadelphia, PA is referred to the Big Pretzel. Just like New York is the big Apple.:wah: Oh, he would love it. Street vendors down town and you can get really great food cheap. He could go to the Art Museum, the Constitution Center, catch a baseball game over at Citizen's Bank Park and of course, what is a visit to Philly without either going to Geno's or Pat's Steaks.:wah:

urgh we've got 'the big worm', 'the big crayfish, 'the big banana', 'the big marino', etc etc.


There aint much in Valdosta. At all. Unless hes able to travel the Smoky Mountains are 3 hrs north of there and that is some extraordinary scenery. If hes stuck in Valdosta then he will be bored.
