I'VE NEVER KNOWN ANYONE who lives in Philadelphia to actually take a horse drawn carriage ride through the city. I don't know why, it's just something we never get around to doing. Like a native New Yorker visiting the Statue of Liberty, or taking a hansom cab ride through Central Park.
I have no idea if these lovely ladies bundled up against a rainy night and clip-clopping up Spruce Street near Broad the other night were tourists, but their smiles as I took this picture made me feel like they were seeing Philadelphia for the first time.
