Center City with Bella!

On Saturday Bella and I wandered all around Center City, popping in little shops and museums along the way and of course, stuffing our guts at all my favourite eateries - Blackbird Pizzeria, Govinda's and Sweet Freedom Bakery! It was such fun just to hang out and talk. I can't believe she's gonna be seventeen next month. Cray-cray...

We started our day at the Athenaeum of Philadelphia, which was very cool, although we are still unclear as to what exactly it is.

 
 
 
 
 

After the Athenaeum we went straight to Blackbird for some super delish pizza (the Haymaker slice is so divine that I pigged out and had two!). It was Bella's first time having vegan 'za and she absolutely loved it.

 

Next up we walked down South Street a bit and checked out some of local artist Isaiah Zagar's work, even stopping in to The Eyes Gallery.

After Eyes Gallery we checked out one of my favourite pieces of street art...
 

Finally we rounded out our day by stopping at Professor Ouch's Bizarre Bazaar & Odditorium which absolutely lived up to its name. Such a fun little shop that I will definitely be visiting again - with cash in hand!
