Chocolate Cheesesteaks and Michael Jackson Lives On


Saturday, we took the Broad Street Line in to Center City to find a coffee shop for studying purposes, and hang out on a beautiful early fall/late summer day. We headed to Reading Terminal Market, which is Philly's version of Cleveland's West Side Market, although the stands look more like shops and less like actual stands. There was a coffee shop where Chris could set up shop, so I left him to study and wandered around the market.

I found all sorts of yummy shops, including this one, a Chocolate st
and whose wares looked delicious. Is that a chocolate cheesesteak??


Later, I cruised outside and found my way around some of the main CC streets: Walnut, Locust... I stumbled upon Rittenhouse Square, which is a cute European-meets-NYC park filled with benches, bikes, people, kids, and, of course, street performers. I was shocked to find that Michael Jackson (or, as his true fans refer to him, MJ) is not dead, as the media would like you to believe, but alive and well, performing at the NE corner of Rittenhouse Square.
